Louisiana car hire

Renting a car on a trip to Louisiana is a fun option that’ll let you see places you wouldn’t otherwise get to see. This Deep Southern state has so many different terrains and roads, you’ll be glad you rented a car to see it all. The Great River Road is a prime example of a breathtaking route that you need to experience in a car. One of the oldest roads in the state, it winds through historic sites and natural areas before terminating at the Gulf.

If you’re near a city like New Orleans, driving might become a challenging feat, as the vibrant, high city pace often makes the highways more stressful. One thing you might notice is the deteriorating condition of many roads from wind and water damage from past hurricanes, and this is especially true in the hard-hit parishes. The more rural drives are different and are much more laid back, as drivers will enjoy the state’s wide-open river country.

Because younger drivers are considered a liability by many of the state’s car-rental agencies, some Louisiana rental companies will not rent to drivers under twenty five. Most of Louisiana’s car-rental companies charge drivers younger than twenty five an additional fee. This is a daily charge that is added to the rental bill, and it can add up quickly. Keep in mind that some rental agencies will not rent to drivers under twenty five at all. To save money on these fees, list another adult who is at least twenty five as your driver.
