Smile Renting a Car

I was thinking about renting a car in Dominica. I know they drive on the opposite side of the road to North America. I was wondering if anyone out there had any experiences renting in Dominica and driving there?

I do believe there are a number of thread about this. In short - we have rented cars and drove all over the world. We would not think about doing this is Dominica. While there are no that many roads, some are washed out, narrow with washed out sides etc. We hired a driver and he took us to the southern end of the island and to areas where tours do not go. Fabulous!

Holy Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! I will either stay on the ship or walk around town if it is too late to get a tour. Thanks for the help.
