Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Hamburg car reservation?
Our Customer Service Portal has details about cancellations. In nearly all cases, full refunds are available if a prepaid rental is cancelled at least six hours prior to picking up the car. Be sure to scan your policy to double-check if there are any exceptions.
What types of cars can I rent in Hamburg?
Not too small yet not too big, compact cars are the top choice for many visitors to Hamburg. With great mileage and easy parking and manoeuvrability, they're well-suited to navigating the city. A compact car has more space than an economy vehicle, so you can get around in a bit more comfort and style. Prefer a bit more legroom? Check out our standard, intermediate and full-size options.
Where can I go on a road trip from Hamburg?
Hamburg is full of adventures, but don't restrict yourself to just one place. Organise a set of wheels and take to the road to explore the wider region. Here are a few ideas:

  • Lake Charles is roughly 153 kilometres from Hamburg. Renowned sights like Golden Nugget deserve a place on your must-see list here.
  • Your next pit stop? Consider Baton Rouge, which is around 97 kilometres away. Raising Cane's River Centre is one local draw card you shouldn't miss.
  • Find your way to Moody Gardens to feel grounded in nature. Take a picnic to enjoy or just relax in the fresh air. From Hamburg, it's 338 kilometres away.

Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to learn if any restrictions apply to you.
What do you need to rent a car in Hamburg?
Be prepared to present a valid driver's licence and a credit card when you get to the rental counter. Before pickup, check with your selected company whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of auto insurance.

Yes, so you won't have to rebook a rental car in the middle of your holiday. Check out our long-term car rental deals page, enter your information and find a ride that's all yours for the next month or so.
Where can I find a Hamburg car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Hamburg companies will rent to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Policies differ between suppliers, so you'll need to do your homework. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some outlets will pass on a surcharge to young customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always look through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
