Rent a car in Germany - What's important to know?
1. Can I rent a car without deposit?
A deposit in the form of a credit card block is required to rent a car in Germany.
2. Is it possible to rent a car without a credit card?
Wherever you rent, a credit card is required to block the deposit for your car rental. HAPPYCAR does not guarantee that other forms of deposits will be accepted by the rental company.
3. How can I take out insurance?
During your search, choose an Excellent Offer, where you fully cover your excess. Any damage costs will be reimbursed to you by the provider in accordance with their terms and conditions.
4. What documents do I need to pick up the rental car?
Every car rental company in Germany needs the following documents from you:
- ID/ passport
- Driving license
- Credit card
- Your car rental voucher
All documents must be issued in the name of the main driver.
What to do in Germany?
Large parts of the country, particularly in the south, are covered by the Alps. These mountains have given birth to the German pastime of hiking. Nature lovers will rejoice at just how much fresh air and wide-open space there is to enjoy. Car rentals in Germany are recommended because the best hikes are far from public transport. You'll also want to bring some hiking gear for the tougher trails.
Rent a room in a classic German lodge and enjoy good food and beer from the beer halls by night. By day, find a cheap car hire in Germany and explore the gorgeous countryside. There's plenty to see and do, and the sights are quite unlike any other.
***
Tip:
Large parts of Germany can be very rural. When hiking, it's not unusual to run across animals like cows roaming around footpaths. Those used to cows confined to fields may be in for a shock. However, you will be fine as long as you walk confidently and keep your distance.
***
Thanks to its convenient location, Germany attracts many tourists. Plan your stay in the city ahead and find out in advance what the car rental company offers. With HAPPYCAR it's very simple - choose dates, compare offers and book the right car.
