How old do you have to be to rent a car in Kraków?
In Kraków, the requirement is usually 21 and over. Most outlets will charge additional fees for young drivers, which can vary depending on the rental location.

It's always a good idea to check the fine print before choosing your wheels.
What do you need to rent a car in Kraków?
You'll generally require a valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name when picking up the vehicle.

These requirements often differ between rental suppliers, so it's always a good idea to check the terms and conditions.
