Bring the right documents and save time at pick-up. You'll generally need your physical driver's licence (no digital copies) and another form of photo ID. Also bring along a credit card with room for the security hold. If there's anything extra, it'll be listed in your booking.
Take your time getting acquainted with your rental. Adjust your seat and mirrors, test the lights and blinkers, and get a feel for its handling before you drive away. And don't forget to stick to the right side of the road in Brazil.
