NRI car rentalApple Car Rentals, operated by Apple Tours and Travels, rents cars to people who need to get around Thiruvananthapuram and the rest of Kerala.
Some customers want a self-drive car for a few days. Others need a car with a driver, a vehicle waiting at the airport, or a car for a month or longer. We handle each of these from our base in Kumarapuram, Thiruvananthapuram.
Our aim is simple: tell you clearly what is available, what it costs and what we need from you, then have the car ready when you arrive.
Pick the arrangement that fits your trip. If you are unsure, call us and we will suggest one.
Drive the car yourself for a day, a week or longer. Documents and any deposit are confirmed before you collect.
