Preparing your trip to Venlo: advices & hints - things to do and to obey
1. In order to rent a car, travelers need to have an international driver’s permit. Car rental services usually also require a credit card with a specified sum of money as a deposit. Drivers who are younger than 21 as well as drivers with an experience of less than one year may be rejected.
2. Bicycle remains the most popular vehicle among local people. It is easy to rent a bicycle as there are many rental spots in all districts of the city. Bicycle is a simple and convenient way to reach any part of the city, and special lanes for cyclists make rides even safer and more comfortable.
3. Venlo is recognized as one of the safest cities in the country, nevertheless, tourists should not forget about basic safety rules. Don’t leave your belongings unattended in public places and stay alert near popular landmarks as there might be pickpockets. It is also not recommended to take large sums of cash and expensive items without any particular need when you go to explore the city.
4. It is possible to exchange money in banks, large hotels, at the railway station, and at special exchange offices. The latter variant is usually the least beneficial one because private exchange offices usually charge a big commission for their services.
6. In order to make international phone calls, it is better to use special phone booths that are very widespread throughout the city. Phone calls made from the hotel room will be the most expensive. It is also important to mention that phone tariffs depend not only on the type of a telephone booth but also on the time of a day. As a rule, phone calls made from 8:00 until 18:00 are the cheapest.
