Question

Should I rent a car?

Answer

Car Rental Feel free to rent a car. When choosing this option, remember that European roads are VERY small, you drive on the "wrong" side of the road, and a lot of European cars for rent are manual shifting cars. www.aaa.com www.hertz.com www.autoeurope.com www.turo.com (think air bnb for cars)
