Car Rental in Cancun

SUV rental in Cancun

The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Cancun are: Toyota Rav4, Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Escape, Jeep Wrangler, Suzuki Jimny, Chrysler Journey and others.

While selecting your preferred model of an off-road vehicle, please examine the rental conditions. In particular, those requirements that concern credit cards – when it comes to renting an expensive car, sometimes offices in Mexico ask information about two credit cards.

Before signing the contract in the rental office upon arrival, check that the invoice figures match with figures in your voucher.

Once the vehicle is assigned, inspect it carefully before leaving the parking. Crossovers and SUVs are often used in tough road conditions, therefore scratches and other exteriour defects are inevitable. Due to this, it is important to check and specify all existing defects in your rental documents.

If you plan to use an off-road vehicle in the mountains, it is recommended to order snow chains. This will save you from unexpected incidents. Other important equipment in Mexico are mandatory child seats for travellers with children. OrangeSmile.com wishes you a safe trip and green lights on the roads of Cancun!

Even in large cities one-way streets are the most widespread. They are so narrow that turning around or parking on them is simply impossible.
Crossroads are also a striking feature of local roads. Here crossroads are rarely a place where meet only two streets. As a rule, crossroads have three (and sometimes more) streets intersected at different angles. In addition, they can be extended by two-and three-storey racks.
Given that many intersections simply have no road signs that would explain the rules of passing them, crossroads have become the most dangerous sections of local roads for foreign visitors.

Enjoying SUV and sightseeing of Cancun
Independence Day is a very important holiday in the life of local people. It is always widely celebrated, so tourists can attend many interesting events and celebrations. The holiday is celebrated on September 15, not 16, even though the latter is more accurate according to the historical data. It is believed that the holiday’s date was changed to coincide with the day of Saint Porphyrios. Theatrical performances have become a common way to celebrate Independence Day. During these performances, visitors can learn more about the events that happened more than 200 years ago. At official celebrations, local people also sing the national anthem and shout the names of freedom fighters and “Viva, Mexico!” The holiday usually ends with fabulous fireworks.

During the period from October 31 to November 2, when many countries celebrate Halloween, some countries in Latin America have their version of the holiday – the Day of the Dead. Despite such a gloomy name, it is a merry and energetic holiday that Mexicans like to celebrate. They clean tombs of their deceased family members and friends, leave gifts to them and light candles in churches. It is believed that in order not to sadden and disturb the deceased, it is important to have fun and forget about all troubles on the Day of the Dead. Locals decorate streets of their cities with garlands and ribbons, participate in colorful processions with colorful lanterns, sing, and dance.
