Car hire in Germany

Germany's scenic Rügen Cliffs and romantic Rhine River are matched only by her manmade city wonders and technology. The country's obsession with design, accuracy and perfection has spawned global automobile brands such as Mercedes-Benz, Audi and BMW. With this in mind, cheap car hire in Germany should prove a pleasurable experience for travellers.

Major airports and ports

Frankfurt Airport manages about 50 million passengers annually. It's the third busiest airport in all of Europe, followed by Cologne/Bonn Airport in Germany, and connects passengers to a multitude of rail and other public transport systems. Ports at Hamburg, Lübek and Bremerhaven are the largest in the country, transporting passengers, vehicles and merchandise in and out of the country.

Driving tips

Home country-issued driving licences are accepted in Germany, with 18 as the minimum age for operating vehicles. Owned and rental vehicles must carry third party insurance, but drivers should be aware that some traffic violations are considered crimes, with imprisonment as a possible consequence.

Places to visit

Visitors who fancy themselves as nights in armor or ladies in peril should visit the fairytale setting of Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria. The Brandenburg Gate landmark at Berlin is also a must-see for history buffs and fans of architecture and art. Car rental in Germany also allows tourists to travel to Bavaria in October for the world-renowned Oktoberfest.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is CompareCarHire.co.uk the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

 What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

 Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

 What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

 How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).
