During the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Avis has put in place additional safety measures to ensure the health and well-being of all our customers and staff.

Explore the great Welsh countryside
From striking mountain passes to rolling green pastures to glassy lakes and secluded beaches, there are few places in this part of the world to rival the natural scenery of Wales. Having a hire car opens up endless possibilities to explore and feast your eyes on the beauty and heritage of Wales at your own pace.
As far as epic road trips go, the Brecon Beacons ticks all the boxes. One of three national parks in Wales, the A4069 crosses the Black Mountains, while the steep Gospel Pass is the highest road in Wales, and winds its way over the mountains from Abergavenny to Hay-on-Wye.
For what is arguably Wales’ most scenic drive, make your way to Snowdonia, a paradise of jagged rocky peaks, rare wildlife, evergreen forests and sparkling lakes. You can start or end your journey in the historic market town of Aberystwyth, and along the way, stretch your legs at the popular Victorian seaside resort town of Llandudno and visit the medieval fortress and UNESCO World Heritage site, Conwy Castle.
For a real departure from the beaten track, discover the Pembrokeshire coastline, home to broad stretches of unspoilt coastline dotted with quaint whitewashed villages. Take some time to relax by the sea, or for something more active, take a break from driving and hike along the picturesque costal paths.
