To land the best price on a Canoas car hire, it's smart to book in advance. Rates tend to rise as your travel dates approach, and last-minute availability isn't always guaranteed.
Foco, Localiza and Movida are some of the most reliable providers in the city. Use them as a starting point to compare offers.
The coverage Foco or another supplier includes with your Canoas car hire can differ, so always go over the fine print. While some include a collision damage waiver (CDW), others will charge a fee for it.
Consider booking a one-way rental. You might be able to score a good deal if the provider needs to shift cars between sites. Find the best available rates by selecting 'Return car to a different location.'
Cut down on fuel costs by choosing a vehicle with a 'Fair fuel policy.' You pick up the car with a full tank and bring it back full, so you only pay for what you use.
Hit the road without tracking every mile and racking up extra fees. Go to the 'Policies' filter and pick 'Unlimited mileage' to find a car that lets you drive as far as you want.

Good to know
Age requirements vary by company (and even car type), so be clear on the rules before you book. Some companies in Brazil may rent to younger drivers for an extra fee. If you're outside the typical age range, simply uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to browse your options.
If you're going away with the kids, check if you need to add a car seat to your Canoas car hire booking. Whether local laws require them or not, they're always the safest way for youngsters to travel.
You'll need to show some documents when you get to the rental desk. As a general rule, bring a valid driver's licence, a credit card with enough balance for the excess (debit cards usually aren't accepted), and additional photo ID. Your booking will confirm exactly what's required.
For first-time drivers in Brazil, be aware that traffic here keeps to the right side of the road.
Keep within local speed limits of about 45kph through built-up areas and around 110kph on highways. Road signs will indicate if the limit is different.
Leave the car parked if you'll be consuming alcohol. Brazil has a zero-tolerance approach to drinking and driving, and penalties may apply.
Try to travel outside high-traffic periods for a faster run in general. 6pm is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.
The Brazilian real (BRL) is the currency you'll be using for everyday expenses and activities. Pay by card where you can, but have some cash handy when electronic payments aren't an option.
Portuguese is the language used most widely across the country.
