                 Self-drive car rental and car rental with driver Which one is better? Today I will compare the advantages and disadvantages of both types of rental for you to read and decide on the type of rental you want.

                At this time, renting a car to drive yourself is an option that people are very interested in today because some people may want to use a car for a few days because they want to travel to other provinces or want to use a car on a weekly basis or want to open up the experience of driving a model that they have never driven before. Therefore, this option is an interesting option.

           For renting a car with a driver, it is another option that people are very interested in nowadays because renting with a driver makes us not tired from driving anymore, making it convenient to travel with a driver, with a driver ready to take care of you throughout the trip.

Disadvantages of renting a car to drive yourself and renting a car with a driver

Disadvantages of renting a self-drive car

• Car Responsibility When you rent a car to drive yourself, taking care of the car is important because if you rent a car and it is damaged, if the renter does not buy special insurance, the renter will have to pay for the damage to the car.

• The price is quite high because daily rental is expensive and there is also a deposit for the car.
• Fines such as bringing pets in the car, smoking in the car, and late return of the car

Disadvantages of renting a car with a driver

• Lack of freedom in traveling because of renting a car with a driver Because if you want to talk about personal matters that you want to know only within the group, but there is a driver providing service, it may cause a lack of privacy.
• The travel plan cannot be changed because the staff must plan the travel in advance before providing service to the customers for the fastest travel.

So, is it better to rent a car and drive yourself or rent a car with a driver?

              Which is better is difficult to answer because both types of rental have different advantages and disadvantages. It depends on the renter which type of rental they prefer. Renting by self-drive allows us to drive the car ourselves. Renting with a driver provides a driver who will take you to your destination with professionalism and also provides convenience throughout the trip.
