If you are a family that loves the open and taking in new scenes, renting a car can be a great way to do this. Whether it is driving on Germany’s famous no speed limit road or along Spain’s famous coastline there are so many great options to choose from.

SUV

SUVs are one of the best options when taking a road trip with the family. There are many models from which to choose. Whether you plan an off-road trip or using the highway, an SUV always come with plenty of space to kick your feet up. If you would like a touch of luxury, you can go for a high-end brand such as Mercedes, which will offer comfort and make you feel good.

No matter the model you pick, ensure it comes with a full suite of navigation and safety equipment. The company you pick should also have maintained their cars well. This way, you do not end up being stuck on the open road and have your family trip ruined.

Besides that, it has enough space to let you travel with as much luggage as you need. With a minibus, you can pack in as many as 12 people and still have enough room left to bring large pieces of luggage with you.

This is a great economy option for families, who wish to spend the least amount of money. Despite their small sizes, you can find cars that offer great handling and a great exterior look.

Getting the Right Insurance

When you rent a car, an unfortunate accident or theft can occur that leaves you with a huge bill to cover on the car rental insurance. Car rental companies have policies that cover damages or loss as you are with the car. In some cases, the rate can be as high as £1500 with some companies charging exorbitantly even for minor dents.

To avoid this cost, the car rental company will charge you insurance that can be as much as £26 a day. Car Hire Excess offers you the same kind of insurance but at a much lower rate of about £2 a day.
