Fetch your suitcase, walk out of arrivals at Barquisimeto Airport (BRM-Jacinto Lara Intl.), and pick up your rental car. Which one you drive off in depends on where you’re headed. If you’ll be spending the majority of the time driving in downtown Barquisimeto, around 4 miles from the terminal, go for something zippy. A compact car with good maneuverability will be perfect for those bustling city streets. But with loads of things to see, like the gorgeous coral reefs of the region, you may want to add some pit stops. A bigger vehicle, like a full-size car or an SUV, will make longer road trips a joy.
