Frequently asked questions

What are the major attractions in Magdeburg?
If your trip to Magdeburg is all sorted out but your itinerary is looking a little empty, let us give you a helping hand.Not far from the heart of the city, Magdeburg Zoo is one sight you might like to consider adding to your to-do list. Cathedral of Magdeburg and Elbauenpark are also nearby and worth a pit stop.
What are the best road trip destinations near Magdeburg?
With some awesome road trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it'd be much harder to enjoy everything that Schoeningen, 30 miles away, has to offer. Palaon - Research and Experience Centre Schoningen Spears, Naturpark Elm Lappwald and St. Lorenz-Kirche alone make the drive out here worthwhile. Located 30 miles away, Quedlinburg is another popular choice. If you swing by, don't miss Quedlinburg Castle, Quedlinburg Cathedral and St Nikolai Church.
What kind of rental car should I get for Magdeburg?
Having your own set of wheels in Magdeburg will give you more flexibility to go wherever you want. Maybe you're planning to leave town, hit the country roads, and see where the wind takes you. If that's the case, book one of our full-size or mid-size SUVs and take in the snowfields in the area. If you'd prefer to experience city life, take to the wheel of something small. Getting around busy streets and traffic will be a lot easier with a compact or mini car.
Should I get a luxury rental car in Magdeburg?
First of all, there's a wide variety of both economy and luxury rental vehicles on offer in Magdeburg. What you go with depends on how much you're willing to spend and what you plan to do. Specialty and prestige vehicles often spare no expense when it comes to mod cons and comfort. If you want to treat yourself, why not grab an SUV with all the bells and whistles, or perhaps a stylish medium-sized vehicle? Otherwise, if you're just after something to get you from A to B as efficiently as possible, you're better off choosing an economy compact vehicle (or something else that won't burn a hole in your wallet).
What side of the road do they drive on in Magdeburg?
