The process of a car reservation on OrangeSmile.com consists of 3 simple steps: (1) search by the dates and pick-up location, (2) car type selection, and (3) booking form completion. After the booking, you will receive a rental voucher at your e-mail address.
Before selecting a specific model to book, check your planned routes. If you are going to drive mostly within the Salvador borders, choose a car of 'Standard' or 'Compact' types. In case you plan long cross-countries trips or mountain adventures, the more comfortable and powerful 'Fullsize' models would become a better choice.
If you need a car with an automatic gearbox, try to make a reservation at least a few days before the pick-up date, since confirmation of such models in Salvador might be delayed for a day or two.
Upon the return of your car, carefully check that the total payment amount (invoice) is computed according to the original rental conditions.
We wish you 'smooth', secure and safe roads in Salvador!
Rental process FAQ
There are special parking places for the disabled close to supermarkets, banks and other institutions. Drivers, who are not disabled, cannot occupy these places, even if all the other places in the parking lot are occupied.
While driving, do not forget to pay attention to road signs that indicate the speed limit. They can be located in most unexpected places. Experienced motorists usually recommend paying attention to local drivers as they never slow down without a serious reason.
If main highways in the country are distinguished by good quality of road surface, secondary roads are not so good. There often many dents and holes on them. Some holes are really big, so it is not recommended to drive fast on them or travel on such roads at night.
