The most widespread cabriolet models offered for rent in Brazil are: Renault Megane Cabriolet, Chrysler Sebring Convertible, Ford Mustang Convertible and VW Eos Convertible.
At the booking time, please check the rental conditions carefully. Quite often, rental offices in Fortaleza require two credit cards to guarantee issuance of a cabrio or a roadster.
We recommend ordering additional no-excess insurance that covers your risk (franchise), since the franchise amount for cabriolets in Brazil is quite high.
Make sure to inspect the rental invoice issued at the office in Fortaleza and compare it with the information indicated in your voucher. Sometimes, rental officers make 'unintentional' mistakes in rental invoices.
In parking garage, examine the vehicle for defects and scratches carefully. If you find any of them, check whether they have been specified in your rental document.
When parking a cabriolet in Fortaleza, it is recommended to unfold the roof and close windows in order to prevent theft or robbery.

The rainy season lasts from November to March. This is the time when drivers are not recommended to make rides to that area of the country. Instead of dirt roads, powerful mudslides appear in the Amazon region. The mudslides are so big that they can cover a whole car. Regardless of the season, traveling to this part of the country alone is not recommended.
Tourists, who still dare to make this dangerous journey, are recommended to purchase “Guia 4 Rodas” guidebook that is available in almost every kiosk. In addition to the detailed road map, the guidebook contains a lot of useful information for motorists, including the current state of the roads.
A trip to the Amazon will be an unforgettable adventure for thrill-seekers. In addition to the mud flow, drivers will surely have to face many interesting and unexpected obstacles and surprises. For example, along some trails you will see huge crocodiles and some other representatives of the local fauna that usually watch amusingly how cars try to get out of the mud.
