Hiring a car is often a key part of a great holiday experience. Having access to your own wheels helps you to get to hidden locations that are off the beaten track, see more of the country you’re visiting, and even just give you a wider choice of accommodation. Plus, if you’ve got younger holidaymakers with you, it can also remove the stress of trying to transport kids and suitcases without losing anything or anyone.
But hiring a car isn’t just a case of selecting one in the right price range when you have a disability. Whether you need space for a wheelchair in the cabin or are used to adaptations such as hand controls or steering aids, you’ll want to do some extra research to get a car you’re comfortable in on holiday. In this guide, we’re going to share our top advice to help you rent a wheelchair-accessible vehicle (WAV), so that you can get out and explore on the open road.
