What kind of rental car should I get for Bhopal?

Bhopal knows how to entertain. You could stay a while in this place and still not see it all. If you want to take in as much as you can in this thriving metropolis, a rental car is a must. Keep in mind that driving in the city often goes hand in hand with tight streets and limited parking spaces. Don't worry though, because an economy or a compact car will make this much easier to manage. If you want to head straight out of the city and discover some of the mountains that Bhopal is well known for, you may prefer a rental car with more room to move. A mid-size or full-size SUV will make that longer drive comfortable.
