What documents do I need to rent a car for a cruise from L Anse?
You'll need a valid driver's license, a credit card in the renter's name, and a government-issued ID or passport. International travelers may also need an International Driving Permit. Always pack your cruise documents separately so you're not searching for them at pickup.
Should I drop off my rental car before or after my cruise?
Drop off before boarding if you don't need a vehicle on disembarkation day, then take a shuttle, taxi, or rideshare to L Anse. If you want flexibility on return day, rent a one-way that lets you pick up at the airport on arrival and drop off near the port before boarding.
