Car Rental in Duisburg

Family car rental in Duisburg

The segments of standard, intermediate and full-size cars in Germany traditionally include the following vehicles: Audi A4, Volvo V50, Honda Accord, Audi A3, Toyota Avensis, Mazda 6 and others.

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 Duisburg 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 Duisburg 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 Duisburg!

Driving Advices for Germany – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities
Previous hints
Drivers, who often make and receive phone calls while driving, will need to purchase a headset. The use of a cell phone during the movement without a headset is also the reason for a fine of 40 euro.
The fine issued for a minor traffic regulations violation can be paid to a police officer. If there’s no cash, the payment can be made by a credit card. If a driver does not pay the fine for some reason, his car can be confiscated.
Do not try to reduce the fines by filling a claim to court. In this case, their size may increase substantially. The reason for this fact is that the court takes into account the level of income of the violator when calculating the amount of fines.

Traveling in Duisburg with family car
The majority of shops and shopping centers work from Monday to Saturday. Sunday is usually a day off. As a rule, stores start serving visitors at 9:00 am - 10:00 am and are open until 19:00 - 20:00. Fans of shopping should not forget to visit the city during Christmas holidays, as the range of goods sold at this time of year is simply amazing.

In addition to a huge choice of restaurants and cafes you will find many fast food facilities in the city. Small colorful kiosks that can be seen in all major streets offer visitors to buy hot sandwiches, hot dogs and soft drinks.

Bicycle remains a popular form of public transport. It is traditionally enjoyed by people of all ages. Travellers can also hire the two-wheeled transport in one of numerous rental centers that can be usually found close to all major hotel complexes.

Staff of local restaurants and cafes is very attentive to regular visitors. By the way, one can get the status of "regular visitor" after eating in the same place for two or three times. Guests can be welcomed by a signature dessert or welcome drink that will become a welcome addition to an order.

The best to exchange currency is to use the services of banks as private exchange offices usually charge a large fee. Cash will be useful to those who hope to visit small shops and cafes, and in large restaurants, shopping and entertainment complexes bank transfer payments are accepted.
