PAIN

A big NEED in USA, still untapped!

 

We are fixing a common frustration that affects millions of visitors every week, everyone feels it, no one fixed it

Every week 1.3 Million

International visitors are coming into USA

Most of them want to explore interesting places outside cities, but they still rely on friends or family or classic Tour Packages

Coming from Europe, Middle East, Australia, Asia and Russia, they don’t feel comfortable driving by themselves in USA.

 

Reasons: Safety, alien country traffic rules, left-hand VS right-hand driving!
