Get the best deal on Trinidad & Tobago car hire
Trinidad and Tobago is a pair of islands that enjoy a tropical climate in the Caribbean Sea, where they lie within just eleven kilometres off the coast of Venezuela. Trinidad was once a Spanish colony, while Tobago spent years being passed from one colonising empire to another. They finally became a republic in 1976, and today are known for their food, music, and annual Carnival - all of which are best experienced with a car hire.
GoSee – find the best car rental deals in Trinidad and Tobago
The capital is the Port of Spain, found on the island of Trinidad, and is packed with things to do and places to see. Stollmeyer’s Castle is an epic 20th-century structure that looks like it would be at home in a fairytale, while Fort George adds a touch of scenery over the port as well as a look into the history of the country.
Meanwhile on Tobago, you can land at Tobago Airport and get to any of the attractions on this tiny island within just a couple of hours. This island is all about rainforest and beaches, so you can easily map out your road trip to visit the famous beaches of Pigeon Point jetty and Englishman’s Bay, and the Argyle Falls.
You’ll have an endless list of places you want to see when you arrive, and a rental car is the perfect way to make it happen.

Top car rental locations in Trinidad & Tobago
Trinidad and Tobago is a country of two small islands, and both of them are easily navigable by car hire. In fact, you could easily do a loop around either one of them within a day. There are just three locations in the country where you can pick up and drop off your car rental, but you’ll find this is more than enough when you never have too far to drive.
On the larger island of Trinidad, it’s likely that you’ll arrive by plane and land at the Piarco Port of Spain Airport. You can rent a car at the Port of Spain Airport to get behind the wheel as soon as you land, or you can head into town and pick up your vehicle in Port of Spain itself. Also, keep in mind that you can opt to start your drive at one of these locations, and leave the rental at the other location if that better suits your travel plans.
Should you visit the island of Tobago, you’ll pick up your rental at the Tobago Airport. It only takes 90 minutes to drive from one end of the island to the other, so returning the car here at the end of your stay won’t cause any hassles.

Road rules in Trinidad & Tobago

- Third-party insurance is mandatory and you must carry it on you.
Driving tips for Trinidad & Tobago
The highway system in Trinidad & Tobago is in good shape, but rural roads can require a little extra care when driving. Keep these tips in mind to help make your way around the islands:
- Avoid driving at night on weekends and holidays if possible, as locals are known for drink driving at these times.
- Pick up a GPS unit with your vehicle to avoid getting lost.
- Allow extra time to reach your destination if you’re leaving the main highways, as rural roads tend to be potholed.
- Keep to main public areas when driving in cities, as there are reports of carjacking outside of city centres.
- Avoid driving during the annual Carnival (two days before Ash Wednesday), as the roads get extremely congested during the festivities.
