What kind of rental car should I get for Cork?

If you plan to head out of the city and into Mother Nature, pick a vehicle with some power. A larger car like an SUV will take you to the area’s rocky coastlines in style and comfort.

Maneuvering through narrow streets and squeezing into tiny parking spots will be a lot less stressful with one of these.
