Find the best deals on Car Hire in Mexico with DriveNow

Mexico is truly a country that stands both in the New World and Old World. Rich in culture, colour, flavour and tradition, Mexico offers something of everything for the adventurous traveller. From the vibrant streets of Mexico City to the historic Aztec ruins, this is a nation that provides a unique experience regardless of your price range, prior knowledge or passion.

While Mexico is still a developing country in relation to infrastructure, a wide network of highways and roads are connecting once inaccessible parts of the nation. From the northern regions of Chihuahua and Coahuila through to the southern regions of Chiapas and Quintana Roo, it is possible to explore Mexico via road. In fact, the only piece of this puzzle missing is a rental car.

Common Questions:

How old do I have to be to rent a car in Mexico?
There are strong rental car restrictions around age in Mexico. Depending on the provider, most drivers are required to be at least 25 years old with a minimum licence period. If your home driver's licence is in English and features a photograph, this is all that is needed to drive a rental car in Mexico. If it doesn't, an international driver's licence is required.

What's it like to drive in Mexico?
As mentioned above, Mexican roading infrastructure is improving. However, it is important to be aware of 'topes'. These are special Mexican speed bumps which are not always marked with yellow paint - highlighting the need for safe driving.

It is also key to look after your personal safety in parts of Mexico while driving - locking doors and windows as appropriate.

Car hire payment?
You must pay for your Mexican car hire with a valid card. Have your credit card ready when you pick up your vehicle.

Excess insurance options?
Taking out travel insurance that covers car hire damage is often an affordable way to make sure you don't get hit with fees in the case of an accident. You might also opt to take out a Collision Damage Waiver, though this tends to be a bit more expensive.
