Environmentally friendly car rental in Argentina

In Argentina, driving is on the right-hand side. A valid driving license from your home country is required, and depending on your country of origin, you may also need an International Driving Permit (IDP).

The speed limits in Argentina are generally 40 km/h in urban areas, 60-80 km/h on secondary roads, and 100-130 km/h on highways, subject to change based on road conditions and signage.

Driving is often the best way to explore Argentina's diverse landscapes, such as the Andes, Patagonia, and the wine regions of Mendoza. Roads can range from well-maintained highways to rough, unpaved routes, especially in remote areas.

Main highways are generally in good condition, but rural roads can be less reliable. Weather conditions, especially in the mountains or during the rainy season, can affect road safety. In major cities like Buenos Aires, traffic can be heavy.

For a more enjoyable and safe driving experience, familiarize yourself with local traffic laws, and consider renting a 4x4 if you plan to explore rural or mountainous areas, as they offer better handling on rough terrains. Remember, patience and careful planning can greatly enhance your driving experience in Argentina.
