The process of a car reservation on OrangeSmile.com consists of 3 simple steps: (1) search by the dates and pick-up location, (2) car type selection, and (3) booking form completion. After the booking, you will receive a rental voucher at your e-mail address.
Before selecting a specific model to book, check your planned routes. If you are going to drive mostly within the Bochum borders, choose a car of 'Standard' or 'Compact' types. In case you plan long cross-countries trips or mountain adventures, the more comfortable and powerful 'Fullsize' models would become a better choice.
If you need a car with an automatic gearbox, try to make a reservation at least a few days before the pick-up date, since confirmation of such models in Bochum might be delayed for a day or two.
Upon the return of your car, carefully check that the total payment amount (invoice) is computed according to the original rental conditions.
We wish you 'smooth', secure and safe roads in Bochum!
Rental process FAQ
If you cannot enter an autobahn for a long time, do not honk and flash with your beams. Such a behavior is considered to be good enough only for truckers. Other drivers must wait patiently and hurry up if a favorable situation for a maneuver occurs.
If a ride on local autobahns brings a lot of worries and there is no confidence in making a successful and safe ride, it is better to use secondary routes. Many of them run through very scenic areas.
In Germany, there is the so-called “Romantic Road” (Romantische Strasse), which runs through the most picturesque parts of the country and is considered one of the most beautiful roads in Europe. It starts near Würzburg and ends in the foothills of the Bavarian Alps. The length of the road is more than 350 miles. This trip will leave a lot of exiting memories to travellers who enjoy rides in the beautiful countryside.
