Top tips for hiring a car in Luxembourg
- When it comes to renting a car in Luxembourg, you’ll see that it’s a great way to get around this small country. There are also great public transport links like trains and buses; however, this can get expensive when you want to visit plenty of places, plus relying on transport schedules can hinder your travel experience. When you rent a car here, you can get to places such as Redange to the west, which takes around 35 to 40 minutes to drive, and Echternach on the German border, which takes a similar amount of time to get to and is much quicker to drive than catch the train.
- When it comes to renting a car in Luxembourg, you must have a valid driver's license which you have held for at least a year. Before renting an automobile, tourists must present identification and passports. Car rental firms require an International Driver's Permit as well. You’ll find that most car rental agencies like Europcar, Budget, National, and Thrifty will require these documents.
- The road conditions in Luxembourg are great. Luxembourg capital is connected by six toll-free motorways to Trier, Germany; Thionville, France; and Arlon, Belgium. The cities of Esch-sur-Alzette and Ettelbruck are connected to the city. Even the rural roads are well-kept and perfect for road-based vacations. City driving is also enjoyable, but keep in mind to prioritize pedestrians and that traffic flows on the right. A perfect vehicle type to rent in Luxembourg would be a compact car or sedan, perfect for inner city roads and with no issues in terms of handling the motorways.
- If you want to travel around neighboring countries like Belgium, France, the Netherlands, or Germany, most car rental agencies have great policies that include one-way rentals and allowances for cross-border rentals. This helps you have more freedom and the opportunity to return your vehicle to a branch that’s more convenient for you, especially if you’re flying back to the U.S. from Paris or needing to grab a connection to another European country. Make sure to check out this option when you’re making your booking through KAYAK.
