| PICK-UP's AND DROP-OFF's |
There is no charge for this 24 hour service only at the airport. After you pick up your luggage, clear customs and security, just walk out the main exit. Outside, one of our representatives will be waiting and looking for you with a sign with our company’s logo and your name. Once he makes contact with you, he will drive you directly to our Plaza Santa Fe office, a few minutes from the airport, where you will process your rental contract and pick up your vehicle. For the drop off, you may choose the same airport office, at Plaza Santa Fe or, our Gran Caribe Real hotel location or, our downtown Cancun office or, our downtown Playa del Carmen office or our downtown Tulum office, between 8 am and 7 pm, any day. Drop offs are not allowed, or processed at the airport, Bus or Ferry terminals. |

| DRIVING AREA RESTRICTIONS |
Within Mexico, there are no driving area restrictions. If you want to drive into Belize, Guatemala or Honduras, specify in the space for “comments”, when you book, so the necessary documentation will be available when you arrive to process your rental contract. There is no charge for this service. However, you must always enter or exit Guatemala, through Belize, not Mexico. If you try to enter or exit Guatemala through Mexico, you will be required a notarized legalization affidavit, which requires a few days to process and will cost, at least, 150 USD, depending on the Notary fee. Whatever the amount, it is additional to the rental fee. Some clients pay it, the majorities do not, and the decision is always up to the client. |
