Age requirements can vary by supplier and even car type, so be clear on the rules before you book. Some companies in Switzerland may rent to younger drivers for an extra fee. If you fall outside the typical age bracket, simply uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to explore your options.
If you're going away with the kids, check if you need to add a child car seat to your Nyon car rental booking. Whether local laws require them or not, they're always the safest way for little ones to travel.
Bring the right documents to make pick-up quick and easy. You'll typically need your physical driver's licence (no screenshots) plus another photo ID. Also bring along a credit card with room for the security hold. If extra requirements apply, your booking will list them.
Take a few moments to get used to your rental. Fix your seat and mirrors, test the brakes and blinkers, and get a feel for its handling before you set off. And remember to stay on the right side of the road in Switzerland.
Make sure you follow the local speed limits. Most of the time that's around 45kph in urban areas and 110kph or so on highways, unless signs say otherwise.
A blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit of 0.05% applies in Switzerland. The safest way to stay legal to drive is to avoid drinking altogether.
One of the busiest times for traffic in this destination is around 8am. Make travel easier by steering clear of peak periods.
