If you are planning to spend most of your vacation time in Acapulco on or near the beach, it is probably best not to rent a car. Renting a car in Mexico can be expensive because even though rates often appear low, they normally don’t include insurance, which is expensive. If you have a limited budget and won’t be making many day trips, relying on taxis is a more practical option.
