Rental car options

By small car through the big city

Enough space in the minivan

Safe journey with the SUV

Do you travel to Barbados with friends or family and have a lot of luggage? Then it's best to rent a minivan. In this minivan, you should have no space problems. If you want to drive a lot through the terrain, you can rent an SUV. In this way, you will never get stuck. If, on the other hand, you need a rental car for the city, we recommend a small car. It is manoeuvrable and fits into even the smallest parking space. As you can see, everyone will find what they are looking for on Driveboo.com. If you want to adapt the car even more to your wishes, you can also select the options all-wheel drive, air conditioning or automatic.

Enjoy the benefits of a rental car

With a rental car, you can enjoy the beautiful landscape of Barbados. It gives you the opportunity to design your stay flexibly and independent off public transport and tourist groups.

A car rental allows visiting remote places, hidden trails or restaurants with a view, impossible to get to by taking a taxi or a bus. These special places are usually inaccessible by bus. Also, there is nothing better than a car waiting for you at the railway station or airport. Nothing more comfortable than not having to carry your luggage to the bus or tram, or paying taxi airport additional charges for it.
