7-day car rental, category A/B/C/D or 4×4 according to your choice.
VAT included, unlimited mileage, comprehensive insurance, pick-up and drop-off at your hotel.
The entire route is on very good tarmac roads. So there’s no need to hire a 4×4, as you’ll have very few opportunities to use it in off-road conditions.
From April to October, take an air-conditioned vehicle. Not really useful the rest of the year.
