Driving & Exploring Lihue, Hawaii

Lihue's history is rich and vibrant. By 1880, it was considered the most important town on Kauai. By 1888, Lihue boasted several stores, two schools, and a livery stable. Lihue Town was an obvious choice in 1905 to be selected as the island’s county seat, and by the end of the decade Government officials had determined the need to construct an imposing new county building to house government affairs 1n the center of town. In 1912 the County bought a five acre tract of land from Lihue Plantation along the main road to Nawiliwili, now named Rice Street. Imagine driving a luxury car down the same 'government road' where the telephone, eateries like Tip Top, and early automobile dealerships once thrived. Therentalcars helps you connect with this rich history in unparalleled comfort.

Local Guidelines: When renting a car in Hawaii, it's crucial to understand the insurance requirements. Hawaii is a 'no-fault' state for injuries, meaning your own insurance covers your medical expenses, regardless of who caused the accident. However, the at-fault driver is responsible for property damage. Rental car companies in Hawaii, including Therentalcars, are required to provide the same minimum insurance coverage as private vehicles. It's important to review your existing car insurance policy and consider additional coverage options offered by Therentalcars to ensure you're fully protected during your Lihue adventure.
