Minivan dimensions are quite unusual for an ordinary driver, which sometimes leads to appearance of scratches and dents during unsuccessful manoeuvring or parking. Therefore, we encourage you to order full coverage of insurance franchise during your booking, or directly at the rental office in Bariloche.
Before leaving the parking garage in Bariloche, inspect the minivan for exteriour defects and other signs of damage together with the office representative and mark the found defects found in your rental documents.

The roads of Argentina are a perfect choice for a comfortable ride. A large part of them is paved and has good informational support. If in the city the road traffic is quite busy, in the country there are not so many cars. This fact makes travelling on them even more enjoyable.
Foreign drivers should not forget about basic traffic regulations. When driving, do not forget to turn on lower beams. It is also necessary not to forget to use seat belts. This rule concerns not only the driver, but also passengers who are in the back seat.
Local motorists often neglect many traffic regulations, but that does not mean that violations are left unpunished. Foreign drivers are recommended not to forget that local motorists never accompany their maneuvers with light signals, so it is often not possible to predict their behavior on the road.
