Top tips when hiring a car in Guatemala

  • Understand Insurance Coverage: Insurance is crucial when renting a car. Make sure you understand what insurance coverage is included in the rental agreement and what additional options are available. In Guatemala, basic insurance typically covers third-party liability, but you may want to consider purchasing additional coverage for collision damage and theft protection.

  • Inspect the Vehicle Thoroughly: Before accepting the car, inspect it carefully for any pre-existing damage, both inside and out. Take note of any scratches, dents, or other issues, and ensure that these are documented in the rental agreement to avoid being held responsible for them upon return. Test the lights, brakes, and other essential functions to ensure everything is in working order.

  • Be Mindful of Road Conditions: Guatemala's road conditions can vary significantly, from well-maintained highways to rough, unpaved roads in rural areas. Choose a vehicle that suits your travel plans and comfort level. If you plan to explore off-the-beaten-path destinations, consider renting a 4x4 or SUV with high ground clearance for better handling on uneven terrain.

  • Familiarize Yourself with Traffic Laws: Traffic regulations in Guatemala may differ from those in your home country. Familiarize yourself with local traffic laws, road signs, and driving customs before hitting the road. Pay attention to speed limits, traffic signals, and pedestrian crossings. Additionally, exercise caution, especially in densely populated urban areas where traffic congestion and erratic driving behavior are common.

By following these tips, you can ensure a more enjoyable and stress-free experience when renting a car in Guatemala.
