  • Enterprise, Keddy By Europcar and Europcar are some of the top-ranked providers in the city. They're a great starting point for comparing offers.

  • Medium: A solid choice when you want something that's easy to manoeuvre but with a few more features. This category includes compact and intermediate models that come with a bit of extra room compared to smaller cars.

Different Gera car hire providers have varying insurance policies and coverage levels, so check the details before booking.

  • From GPS units to mobile Wi-Fi, the right extras can make all the difference. Consider which add-ons could enhance your trip when you rent a car in Gera.

Good to know

  • Add a car seat to your Gera car hire reservation if you're bringing the kids. Rules can change from place to place, but using a child seat suited to their age, size and weight is always the safest choice.

  • You'll likely be asked for these three things when collecting your rental car: a current driver's licence, extra photo ID, and a credit card with enough funds to pay the security deposit. Debit cards usually aren't accepted. Your booking will flag any other must-haves.

  • If you're unfamiliar with driving in Germany, remember that traffic here keeps to the right side of the road.

  • A blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit of 0.05% applies in Germany. The only guaranteed way to stay safe to drive is to avoid alcohol completely.
