Car Hire

[yalana]

Hi can anyone recomend a decent car hire company in Chiang Mai that will drop off at airport.

Many thanks
Chris.

most car hires are in town; you hardly need to be dropped off at the airport as it is just a B100 taxi ride away

Avis and RhinoCarHire both operate from the airport

Get online and look at the rates for the big boys (Avis, Hertz, Budget).

Are you Thai size!!? those are real mini cars

I searched with

http://www.carrentals.co.uk/car-hire...mai-guide.html

and got a price for a small economy car of B6000 a week, and B1200 a day, from the airport

OK not too bad, although you can get larger older cars for B1000 a day in town

You could try North Wheels in CM.

I have used a few of there cars and the drop off/pickup and are open early/late.

Thai Rent a Car. They pick you up and drop off at the airport even though their office is in town (nearby the airport).

The Toyota Yaris is plenty big enough for 2 people who want to explore the North or just cruise around Chiang Mai.

Plenty of leg room and enough room to throw all your kit in.

Great fuel economy , plenty of power and very stable for the mountains up that way.

Last year I hired a new Yaris from Avis out of the Airport and received a good price for 12 days over the internet.

The monthly rentals are brilliant.

small bastard, Terry

5'11'' so yes I agree but with the seats pushed right back plenty of leg room for a 6' plus dude.

Heaps of room Doc.

[DrAndy]

what is that in real numbers?

anyway, if the Yaris is so big I will pop out and get a couple
