41 € is the cheapest daily price you'll find for a rental in Van.
Planning a longer trip and want to explore beyond the tourist trail? 240 € is the lowest rate for a weekly rental.
Consider this your cheat code for when to book. Two weeks in advance is when you're most likely to find the best price on a Van car hire.
Line up your ride with Sixt, Avis or Rent Go. They're some of the most trusted providers in the city.
Always check if a collision damage waiver (CDW) is part of your Van car hire policy, whether with Sixt or a different supplier. Some companies treat it as an optional extra instead of bundling it in.
Booking one-way could snag you a bargain on your rental. Providers sometimes offer lower prices when vehicles need to be moved around. Just click 'Return car to a different location' when searching the range of cars for rent in Van.
Spend less on fuel by choosing a vehicle that has a 'Fair fuel policy.' You pick up the car with a full tank and return it full, so you're only paying for what you use.
Want to explore more without worrying about the number of miles you cover? Find rentals with 'Unlimited mileage' under the 'Policies' filter and drive as far as you like without the extra charges.
