Southwest from Hauptbahnhof you'll pass the Westend using your car hire and get to Theresienwiese, home of the infamous Oktoberfest. Going there by car hire is good because this is one of the best suburbs for well-priced cafes and restaurants with a good street vibe.
Using car hire makes day excursions to the Muhurraq Island reveal its interesting architecture easy. It’s also worthwhile visiting the ancient grave mounds at the Royal Tombs. Bani Jamrah is also definitely worth the car hire trip if you're interested in hand-woven textiles.
The car hire is rented out with a full tank of petrol and needs to be returned the same way. The minimum age is 21 years although you will find the security bond for car hire is much higher if you are under 25 years. The Insurance is included in the price (the excess can be reduced even further for some extra cost) as well as a pick up from you are hotel. If you are arriving by plane arrangements can be made to pick you up from the airport in an air-conditioned courtesy vehicle (must be pre-booked and arranged )
