Important information about Krakow car rentals

There are over 20 car rental locations in Krakow, making it a very convenient way to travel with a car rental or a passenger van rental. You can book a cheap car rental in Krakow and have the freedom to go where you want on your schedule. Beautiful churches like St. Mary’s Basilica, streets and squares like the Plac Szczepanski, and historic places like Cloth Hall are great sites to see. Parking is allowed on some streets, but the public lots and underground garages are the best parking areas. The rural roads are narrow and not well maintained, so it is best to avoid driving them at night due to the large number of potholes. Horse-drawn wagons and carts are also still common on the rural and even main roads, so use extra caution when driving Krakow car rentals on windy roads with poor visibility.

While visiting, is it worthwhile to rent a car while visiting Krakow?

Car rentals in Krakow are the best way to get around the city and visit nearby locations, but there are some things you need to expect and be familiar with. Delays and detours due to road work are very frequent, especially during the summer months on roads leading to main tourist attractions. Parking is allowed on the streets, but it is expensive, and the meters generally only accept coins. There are several large public parking lots and garages in the center of the city where you can park and then walk or use the transit system downtown. These also charge fees, but most of them are also guarded. Many wonderful places to see are just a short drive outside the city including the Nowa Huta, the Las Wolski forest sanctuary, and the Benedictine Abbey in Tyniec, so even if you want to park and walk or take public transit downtown, it still is a good idea to rent a car in Krakow.

What different driving laws should I keep in mind while driving in Krakow?

When you pick up your economy car rental in Krakow, make sure it has a fire extinguisher, warning triangle and reflective jacket in the trunk. If you are pulled over by a law enforcement officer, you can be fined if these items are not in the car. Like in most European countries, drivers in Poland drive on the right side of the road. The blood alcohol limit in Poland is extremely low and the penalties are particularly harsh, so it is best never to drink any alcohol before driving car rentals in Krakow. You cannot use your cell phone while driving unless it is in hands-free mode, and seat belts for everyone in the car is strictly enforced. Young children must sit in the rear seats, never the front. It is recommended to check with the local driving authorities when you arrive to make sure there have been no recent changes in the laws.

Will I need a special driver’s license or permit to drive a rental car in Krakow if I’m visiting from another country?

If you are from a country in the European Union, you can use the license you have for several months. If you are not from an EU country, you will need to obtain an International Driving Permit before driving rental cars in Krakow. You can reserve car rentals in Krakow on our website, but be sure you have everything you need before you arrive.
