Considering that the streets can at times be tight and difficult to travel on, opting for a car that is compact or mid-sized can be a good choice. A smaller car will be easier to manoeuvre and park in tight spaces. However, if you are planning on spending more time in your hired car or if you have a lot of luggage, then a larger car model may be more suited to your needs, and provide more comfort and space. This is especially true if you are travelling with a group or family.
