Road and self-drive

Check road surfaces, night-driving rules, police checkpoints, tolls, fuel coverage, vehicle insurance, international driving permit needs and cross-border permissions before collecting a rental car.

Air and airport transfers

For long internal distances, domestic flights or charter flights may be safer than slow roads. Pre-book meet-and-greet transfers at the airport for late arrivals or high-value luggage.

Sea, rail and border routes

Where ports, ferries, railways or land borders are relevant, confirm the operating day, customs procedure, baggage limits, passenger manifest requirement and visa validity for the specific crossing.
