What is the most popular rental car category in Mauritania?
It's always a great idea to get out of the city for a while, and if you do, you'll be rewarded for your efforts. With sandy shores, oases, and desert landscapes to marvel at, Mauritania knows how to do an exciting day trip. A larger vehicle like an SUV or a four-wheel drive will give you and the gang more room for those longer drives.
Should I get a luxury rental car in Mauritania?
You'll be happy to hear that there's a broad range of both luxury and economy rentals in Mauritania. What you end up going with depends on your funds and what you're hoping to do. Specialty vehicles often spare no expense when it comes to mod cons and comfort. If you're splashing out, why not pick a high-end SUV, or perhaps a stylish medium-sized vehicle? Otherwise, if you just need a car to zip around town in as efficiently as possible, go for a versatile compact vehicle (or something else that's unlikely to break the bank).
What happens if I get a speeding fine while driving a rental car in Mauritania?
Generally speaking, your chosen rental car company will charge the amount detailed on the fine to your credit card, including local surcharges. Or they may supply your information to local authorities, who'll then issue a fine to your postal address.
