Blessed with a stunning Atlantic location on the southern shores of the state of Florida, Fort Lauderdale is famed for its fine weather, gorgeous beaches (7 golden miles of them) and vibrant cultural scene. Ever since the Seminole Indians settled there in the 18th century, the area has been a magnet for people seeking a pleasant life with lovely year-round sunshine. Today it's wooing a growing number of tourists with a wonderfully laid-back atmosphere and an enchanting Venice-like network of waterways and canals. Located right in the heart of downtown, the excellent Museum of Discovery and Science is a first-rate family attraction with dinosaurs, dozens of prehistoric fossils and a large living coral reef, as well as several other immersive experiences such as the popular Everglades Airboat Adventure. Don't miss the chance to look around the beautiful Stranahan House Museum, which was once the home of the pioneering trader, Frank Stranaham, whose exhaustive local enterprise helped put the city on the map. After all the city sightseeing is done, why not head down the coast with your car hire in Fort Lauderdale for an exciting road-trip to Miami (one of the world's top holiday destinations) and the Everglades National Park, the largest subtropical wilderness in the whole of the USA.

" I arrived in the USA at Fort Lauderdale port and on checking I could not find a pick-up point closer than Fort Lauderdale Airport. but aparently there is one nearer the port. The Hertz site should make that more obvious. and any pick up from cruise ship arrangements. "

" High mileage car provided, interior looked as if the car was lasted used by a team of builders with the seats and carpets dirt grimed plus coffee stains on dash and consule. I got the guy on the exit barrier to write up a record of the external damage to the car so that I could not be blamed for the condition it was in. Limited number of cars in the full size row and all had some damage and dirty interiors, it seems Dollar car rental are keep their cars well passed there sell by date. "

" Excellent service. Rental car was lovely and clean inside and out and we had no problems with the car. The only observation I would like to make is I wish the rental companies wouldn't security fix both car keys on the same key ring as it would be nice to have one kept safe with my wife just in case we lost and had on stolen.

" Our rental went very smoothly, we would diffinitely use and recommend Auto Europe. "
" All rental vans should have a step stool, whether its free or a minimal charge. There should be an option to get one. My mom is eighty years old and we had to purchase one and we left it in the van for the next person. "
