  • Check out what's available with Sixt and Hertz. They're some of the most popular providers in the city.

  • The coverage Sixt or another company offers for your Kristiansund car hire can differ, so always go over the small print. While some include a collision damage waiver (CDW), others will provide it for an extra charge.

  • Booking one-way could snag you a bargain on your rental. Providers sometimes offer lower rates when vehicles need to be moved between sites. Simply select 'Return car to a different location' when searching the cars for rent in Kristiansund.

  • Spend less on fuel by picking a vehicle that has a 'Fair fuel policy.' You pick up the car with a full tank and bring it back full, so you only pay for what you use.

  • From GPS units to mobile Wi-Fi, the right extras can make all the difference on the road. Consider which features will help you make the most of your trip when you rent a car in Kristiansund.

Good to know

  • Rental age requirements aren't always the same across the board. Providers can set their own policies, and if you're a younger driver, you might run into extra costs or rules. Check the specific rules for each supplier before booking your rental in Norway.

  • If you're travelling with kids, check if you need to add a child car seat to your Kristiansund car hire booking. Whether local laws require them or not, they're always the safest way for little ones to ride.

  • Bring the right documents and keep pick-up quick and easy. You'll generally need your physical driver's licence (not a screenshot or digital version) and a second photo ID. Have a credit card ready for the deposit too. If anything extra is required, you'll find it in your booking.

  • Spend some time getting acquainted with your rental. Check your seat and mirrors, test the brakes and blinkers, and get a feel for its handling before you drive away. And remember to stick to the right side of the road in Norway.

  • Make sure you follow the local speed limits. Usually that's around 45kph in urban areas and 95kph or so on highways, unless signed otherwise.

  • The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit in Norway is 0.02%. Because alcohol affects each person differently, it's best to skip drinks entirely so you remain legal to drive.

  • Aim to travel outside heavy traffic periods for a faster run in general. 8am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.

  • The Norwegian krone (NOK) is the currency you'll be using for everyday purchases and activities. Use cards where you can, and keep a little cash when electronic payments aren't accepted.
