FAQ

1. Do i need a credit card?

No need.

2. Is there a deposit?

Without deposit payment.

3. Can I pay when I take delivery of the car?

It is possible, but you need to click through from our site, not directly from the operator's site, we have a unique link where the operator knows that you are our client. The advantage of this for you is not only individual support, but also that you can pay on the spot. What do you need to do for this? Go through the whole booking and when you are at the end of the booking and prompted to pay, so email us on whatsapp, we will check if the booking is in the system, close the order, send instructions, confirmation and pay on the spot. The free cancellation is at least 48h before the scheduled arrival, so please inform us in advance in case you will not be flying.

4. What are the operating hours of the car rental company?

From 7 a.m. to 11 p.m., but there is no problem to rent or return the car outside the opening hours, only a surcharge of 25 Euro is applied, which is already included during the calculation, because you enter the time of renting and returning the car.

5. Can another person drive the car?

Please note, car insurance works a little differently here, you may need to have a second driver on the policy, we offer this option free of charge, just email us the full name and date of birth of the second driver. If the driver is 21-24 years old, the car insurance will be significantly more expensive, so the second driver will be charged. For ages 25 and over, the second driver is free.

6. Do I have to clean the car?

Yes you need to vacuum the car, you don't need to deal with the car wash, the interior is the main thing.

7. Do I have a petrol or diesel car?

The easiest way is to open the tank cover and there is a hint on the lid, E5 and E10 is gasoline, or Gasolina. B7 is the designation for diesel.

8. What is the fuel policy?

Please note that the fuel level should be approximately the same as when you picked up the car. You are more likely to receive a car with a quarter of a tank than a full tank, there is a slightly different policy to other car hire companies.
