FAQ
How can I pay for my rental car?
Payment for a rental car should preferably be made by credit card. It is possible to pay by debit card, however at the rental counter you will need a credit card issued to the main driver in order to secure the deposit for your rental car.
Who is allowed to drive the rental car and what are the conditions?
A rental car can be driven by a main driver, that is the person registered in the booking. Additional drivers may be added to the reservation at extra fee. The main and additional drivers are to present a valid driving license, which they have been in possession of for at least one year (please refer to the rental conditions), and a valid identity card/passport. Additionally, the main driver is to present a valid credit card issued in their name.
Do I have to pick up and return the car at any time? What happens if I am late for pick-up?
We recommend that you pick up the car at the agreed time as the availability of the car cannot be guaranteed in case of a delay. As a rule, local suppliers keep vehicles available up to 30 or 60 minutes after the agreed time. If a delay is inevitable, please contact the rental agency (you will find their contact details on the voucher).
What documents are required to pick up the vehicle?
When picking up the vehicle, the main driver is to present the following documents: the printed voucher, their identity card or passport; their driving's license and their valid credit card.

General Information

Sofia was founded by Thracian tribes some three thousand years ago. Since then, a great many ancient civilizations contributed to the evolution of Bulgarian culture including; Romans, Ancient Greeks, Slavs, and Bulgars were the main cultures, of which traces can still be seen today. In 1396, the Ottoman Empire invaded Bulgaria, converting it into a Turkish province until 1878. This led to the destruction of a great part of Bulgarian culture. However, the only remnants of Turkish rule are a few mosques around Sofia. After WWII, Bulgaria became a satellite state of the Soviet Union and was put under the communist yoke. After the fall of the USSR, Bulgaria adopted a parliamentary democracy and at the beginning of the 21st century, the country finally made considerable economic and social advancements, which catapulted it into the international limelight. Sofia has since become the country’s cultural and economic center.

Take advantage of your Sofia car hire

Driving around the city you will be able to take in the many sights and sounds at your own leisure. Bulgaria is full of important religious and architectural buildings and monuments. The Petka Samardzhiyska Church, built in the 11th century, is dedicated to the Martyr Petka Ikoniyska. Inside you will find wall paintings which date back to the 15th and 16th century. The Banya Bashi Mosque, built in the 16th century, is one of the remnants of Ottoman occupation and it is built over natural thermal spas. In close proximity is a synagogue, which also houses a museum. You will be hard pressed to find another European city that is home to so many Christian, Islamic, and Jewish monuments in such close vicinity. Sofia, famous for its natural mineral springs, boasts an impressive public bath house. History buffs will want to visit the National Historical and Archaeological Museum with the former contains more than 650,000 exhibits and is one of the largest history museums on the Balkans. The latter covers the entire study of the culture of tribes and peoples who have occupied present day Bulgaria from the past until the 18th century.

With your rental car you can take a trip into central Bulgaria. For over a thousand years, Stara Planina, also known as the Balkan range, has been the foundation of the Bulgarian nation. Veliko Tarnovo, which boasts dramatic medieval fortifications and antique houses along the Yantra River, plays an important part in Bulgarian culture and identity. It was here that the National Assembly met to draft Bulgaria’s first constitution in 1879 and it also served as the site for the Communist proclamation of the People’s Republic in 1944. Its narrow streets bend above the Yantra River and denote the old town with its attractive houses and it eventually slopes up into the Varosh Quarter, a beautiful collective of 19th century buildings. They were once home to artisan shops but they now accommodate souvenir and clothing shops.
