It also allows you to plan your trip around the journey itself and gives you more control over your holiday. This is especially true if you need something more specialist, such as a <a href=\"https:\/\/thealternativeagency.co.uk\/indigo\/van-hire\/\">van <\/a>to help you move cross country, or a <a href=\"https:\/\/thealternativeagency.co.uk\/indigo\/car-hire-with-a-tow-bar\/\">rental car with tow bar<\/a> if you\u2019re going caravanning for example. Luckily, we have recently managed to secure a deal to allow you to take a wide range of vehicles throughout almost all of Europe.<\/p>\n<h2>What countries am I able to drive in to?<\/h2>\n<p>There are surprisingly very few limitations on this, you can take it almost all European countries, either over land or ferry:<\/p>\n<p>[table id=419 \/]<\/p>\n<h2>What cars are available to take cross-border?<\/h2>\n<p>There are no limits on the type\/size of car you can take, we\u2019ve recently even struck a deal to allow <a href=\"https:\/\/thealternativeagency.co.uk\/indigo\/9-seater-car-hire\/\">9-seat minivans<\/a> to be taken cross border, so there are options for larger families or just those who pack heavy! We have options for more niche vehicles as well, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/thealternativeagency.co.uk\/indigo\/vehicle-rental-fleet\/4x4-car-hire\/\">4&#215;4\u2019s<\/a> and pickup trucks with tow bars (great for caravanning), commercial vans and a large fleet of <a href=\"https:\/\/thealternativeagency.co.uk\/indigo\/prestige-car-hire\/\">prestige vehicles<\/a> too.<\/p>\n<h2>What are the available pickup points?<\/h2>\n<p>There are pickup points all across the country for a majority of the cars, some of the more specialist vehicles are a little more limited but they are still available in almost all the major cities.<\/p>\n<p>Just make sure you contact us directly if you are looking to arrange this option as it can\u2019t be booked online, you can either call us on <strong>01138800748<\/strong>, email us to <a href=\"mailto:sales@thealternativeagency.co.uk\">sales@thealternativeagency.co.uk<\/a> or just click the online chat button below to discuss with one of our agents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can rental cars be driven into Europe?
