  • You'll have to provide some documents when you get to the rental desk. As a general rule, bring a valid driver's licence, a credit card with enough funds to cover the excess (debit cards usually aren't accepted), and additional photo ID. Your booking confirmation will spell it all out.

  • For first-time drivers in Germany, keep in mind that traffic here sticks to the right side of the road.

  • The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit in Germany is 0.05%. Because alcohol affects everyone differently, the only way to be sure you're safe to drive is to avoid drinking.

  • Around 8am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination. Try to avoid rush hours if you want a smoother run.

  • You'll be using the euro (EUR) for all your purchases here. You may find it handy to carry a mix of cash and cards so you always have a backup option.
