Renting a Car in Hua Hin
It is easy to find rental car service from major car rental company such as Budget, Alamo, Hertz or else. Hiring a car is a great way to get around town as a family or visit places further afield. Renting a car in Hua Hin is a straight forward process, all you need is an international drivers licence.
Many Hua Hin car rental outfits will ask for a large deposit, be very wary of this as it is not necessary, they will often charge you for damage done to the hire car before you rented it, check your rental car for damage first.
Be aware that only Commercial First Class Insurance provides full coverage on rental cars (as opposed to limited personal or third party only insurance).
Most international car rental agencies will offer this insurance (some only for those with a valid international driver?s license) while local companies may or may not. You may wish to request a copy of their insurance policy and ensure that it states "For Commercial Use".
Regardless, inspect rental vehicles prior to rental and drive with caution, particularly as traffic in Thailand can be quite confusing, especially the habit of Thai motorcycles drivers to drive on the wrong side of the road.
