How old do you have to be to rent a car in Bonn?

Normally, to rent a car in Bonn you must be at least 21—the same as it is across the rest of the country. If you are under 25, you might also need to pay a surcharge. Be sure to read the terms to discover any additional charges will be before you book your rental.

Do I need insurance to rent a car in Bonn?

When driving around Bonn or the rest of Germany, you will need insurance. Almost every supplier requires that you show proof of insurance before you pick up your automobile. Most countries require the driver to have insurance. You may be able to pay for temporary coverage through the rental supplier.

Many major card issuers, like American Express or MasterCard, offer some coverage, however, there are usually restrictions. For instance, they may not cover your rental car if you get a luxury or larger vehicle. Make sure to check the rental car company's policy before you decide.

Are there different fuel policies?

Most suppliers allow you to choose which policy you want. Here is a list of the typical policies.

You will need to find an open gas station near the drop-off location

What fuel policy should I get?

Most rental car suppliers give you a full to full tank policy. At CarRentals.com, we suggest bringing your car back with a full tank. To avoid any added expenses, find a filling station before returning the rental. Stations near or around airports or car rental places tend to have higher prices.

Is it worth getting unlimited miles?

Unlimited mileage is a good option for travelers who don't want to worry about watching the odometer their whole trip. Just make sure that your policy really provides unlimited miles. Read the fine print before you book.

Before you leave the lot

Make sure you check a few items prior to leaving the car rental lot. It's worth the time to:

• Look over your car and determine if there is any damage or scratches. Be sure to make note of it on the paperwork, or you may get charged for it
• Make you have a properly inflated spare tire, lug wrench, and jack in the trunk
• Get familiar with the controls of your car. Adjust the mirrors and seats, and note how to turn on the lights and windshield wipers
• Figure out how to work the entertainment and GPS (if available). You don't want any unneeded distractions in a new city
