So Harry Potter has come to Orlando! Finally it’s happened and the park looks as if it’s going to be a winner! But will you need car rental to get the most out of your trip to Orlando?

It depends on whether you want to explore more than The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. After all, Florida has hundreds of miles of beaches, thousands of different attractions and many places of natural interest where you can spot local flora and fauna.

Car rental Florida then is a must if you want to make the most of your Orlando trip, not just for the convenience of getting around but the comfort too! Florida can be humid and if you’re not used to the heat and humidity it can be a bit of a shock, but with an air-conditioned car you can be sure of arriving at your chosen attraction feeling cool and comfortable.

After enjoying the delights of Harry Potter or the many other theme parks in the Orlando area, you can depart in comfort too, arriving back at your home base or going to one of the many fantastic places to eat, where the food is plentiful and the prices very reasonable.

Next you need to decide what sort of car you should hire in Florida and that is dependent on how many you are in the party and your budget. For me, a convertible is what I love to hire whenever I go to Florida, usually a Chrysler Sebring, it’s a proper sized car with a comfortable amount of space for adults in the back, the boot (trunk in the US) has plenty of room for cases and it’s a great way to see the sights!

A word of caution though, if you do decide to rent a convertible, then my advice is to book early, they’re very popular and will sell out more rapidly than others.

To get the best out of your visit to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando Florida book your rental car early and book it with a site you can pre-pay to guarantee both the price and the rental car!

This time of year is high season in Florida so if you want to hire a car, you need to book as early as you can. I’ve mentioned before that the economic climate has definitely changed the way in which the major (and minor) car hire companies have changed the way they manage their fleets.

It means that they’ve cut back on the numbers of hire cars they have available at each location, plus they are sometimes keeping cars that are older than six months. What this means to you is that unlike flights, waiting until nearer your departure date will not get you a deal!

In fact the only thing that’s likely to happen is you end up not getting a hire car at all, especially in a popular destination like Florida!

So what to do if you want a Florida car hire? the best tip I can give you is to book your hire car early don’t wait just get it booked. If you are booking at the last minute, then go for a slightly larger hire car as they cheaper groups are usually the first to go.

Be prepared to take what’s available and you can afford, don’t let it spoil your holiday, be happy that you’re one of the lucky ones who actually managed to get a Florida hire car!
