With some terrific day trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to explore everything that Santa Cruz do Sul, 40 miles away, has to offer. Cave of Indians ought to be high up on your list here. Colegio Maua Museum and Max Shopping Center are also not to be missed. Don’t miss Passo Fundo either! Just 60 miles away, Gare Park, Bella Citta Shopping Center and Tamandare Park are non-negotiable stops here.
