Good to know
Age requirements for rentals often vary by provider and even car type, so know the rules before you book. Some providers in Germany may rent to younger drivers for an extra fee. If you're outside the typical age bracket, just uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to unlock the right options.

Take your time getting acquainted with your rental. Set up your seat and mirrors, find the lights and blinkers, and get a feel for its handling before you set off. And importantly, stick to the right side of the road in Germany.
