Top tips for hiring a car in Guadeloupe

  • In Guadeloupe, child car seat rules follow the French system, so children under the age of 10 years old must travel in a car seat. Children weighing less than 13 kg (28 lbs.) must be in a rear-facing car seat in the front or back seat. For children up 18 kg (39 lbs.), they must travel in a child seat that has a protection tray or harness. Children between 18 kg (39 lbs.) and 36 kg (79 lbs.) must use a booster seat with an adult seatbelt. If a child is under the age of 12, they are not allowed to sit in the front seat of a car.
  • Renting a car in Guadeloupe will provide you with the most freedom and flexibility, as public transport is limited and often does not operate during the night-time. The other advantages of renting a car on these islands is that you can quickly get to remote locations like the active La Grande Soufrière volcano on Basse Terre, which is a 6.4 km (3.9 mi) drive from Saint-Claude.
  • On your travels around Guadeloupe, you will find that traffic is heavier early in the morning and in major cities, while on weekends, traffic is much lighter. If you need to park your rental car, you will find good parking options at most hotels and major tourist sites.
  • Discovering the delights of Guadeloupe is best done by car. You will find that most of the roads in the country are well maintained and in good condition. Guadeloupe is made up of two islands that are connected by the N1 and N11 highways. On the Basse Terre island, where the terrain is more rugged and roads are mountainous with sharp bends, you should rent a four-wheel drive. If you plan to stick to the Grand Terre island, a comfortable saloon model is suitable.
  • Book your car hire in Guadeloupe at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
