Traveling through China presents unique challenges for visitors due to regulations restricting tourists from renting cars or driving in the country without a temporary permit issued by the Chinese government. With National’s Car and Driver service, travelers can now easily reserve a vehicle, along with the services of a professional driver to provide transportation for full- or half-day rentals, allowing the freedom and convenience to expertly navigate an unfamiliar city with ease.

National Car and Driver offers a variety of rental options to ensure a reliable and personalized experience, including “point-to-point” or “hourly” reservations. By opting for the point-to-point option, customers can preschedule up to seven pick-up and drop-off locations to efficiently juggle multiple meetings and engagements. Alternatively, selecting the hourly option provides travelers the freedom and flexibility to build their itinerary in real-time as their day unfolds.
