INFORMATION

Frequently
Asked Questions

How do your trips work?

We supply every thing that is required for a complete and safe holiday. We will build you your itinerary, make all of your accommodation bookings, supply you with a vehicle of your choice (or as similar to your choice as possible), your National Park permits where necessary and importantly, you have 24-hour support (you are never out of reach as we supply you with a satellite phone with complimentary credit).

Are flights included?

Flights are not included in the prices listed on our website. You will need to book your own international flights (we can advise on the best options), but in many cases we would prefer to book your internal flights so that we can react quickly in case of any unforeseen scheduling changes.

Who owns your vehicles?

Latin Drive sources its vehicle from local partners.

What happens if we break down?

We will help you in the most appropriate way possible. That may be to guide you to a nearby garage if the vehicle can be driven or arrange for a mechanic to give you road-side assistance (not always an option depending on location) or organise a replacement vehicle if required. Our ultimate aim is to get you back on the road and enjoying your holiday as quickly as possible with the minimum disruption.

Are we reimbursed for breakdowns or accidents?

Unfortunately, we are unable to reimburse you for any days lost usage.

What happens if we get lost?

We will minimise the risk of this by providing you with good directions, excellent local maps and you also have an option of requesting a sat nav. However, we all get lost from time to time. When this happens, you can contact our in-country team and they will set you back on track.

Are transfers included in the price?

Yes, all airport transfers are included in your holiday and are private.

Can I do a one way journey with Latin Drive

Yes, we specialise in one way journeys, that means you do not have to back track.

What are the dangers?

Every adventure holiday carries an inherent risk and you should be aware of the possible dangers on a self-drive holiday. Please read all of our information carefully and talk to our team in preparation.
