"Tripiamo's guide is super helpful and thorough including all the information we wanted... It's spot on."
Toni C.

"I got a $42 service fee from my rental company, just for sending me a ticket in the mail after my trip. That didn't even include the price of the ticket! Pretty sure Tripiamo would have saved me money and the aggravation."
Miguel F.
"I purchased the driving tutorial from Tripiamo and it was definitely worthwhile. I had watched several free YouTube videos, but Tripiamo points out so much more detail, and I feel better prepared to drive!"
Anonymous Customer
"I was worried at first... You read the occasional horror stories of getting into accidents or worse... but I did the Tripiamo guide and it worked for me. After I did it a few times my mind just made the adjustment, so I totally recommend using it. It put me at ease."

Why Do I Need A Tripiamo Guide?
According to the Centers for Disease and Control Road, road related incidents, regardless of transit mode, are the leading cause of non-natural death for healthy U.S. citizens residing or traveling abroad. According to the World Health Organization, the rate of road-related accidents continues to grow amongst foreign visitors.
Despite these statistics Americans can freely drive in 174 countries around the world without any need for understanding local road environments. Today, all that’s necessary to drive abroad is a filled-out $20 application for an international drivers permit.
Taking only a few minutes and a few dollars to learn driving conditions before travelling can teach you something, even a thing or two, that might help you avoid risk and even reduce large and unnecessary expenses ( vehicle damage, driving fines & more).
We believe Tripiamo is a small investment that’s well worthwhile.
