Car Rental in Zadar

Family car rental in Zadar

The segments of standard, intermediate and full-size cars in Kroatia traditionally include the following vehicles: VW Passat, Honda Accord, Audi A3, Toyota Avensis, Hyundai Sonata, Renault Megane 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 Zadar 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 Zadar 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 Zadar!

Traveling in Zadar with family car
All taxis are equipped with counters. The cost of a ride at night and on weekends can be 20% higher than on weekdays. As a rule, a trip in the city costs not more than 8 dollars, and in the case of a ride to the country the price is better to be specified in advance.

Grocery stores and supermarkets open at 8:00 am and work until 20:00 - 22:00. Large shopping centers and boutiques may open a little later, at 9:00 - 10:00. Shops and restaurants located on the territory of beaches usually have the longest work hours.

In some elite restaurants service fees may be already included in the bill. If there is no separate item concerning service fees in the bill, then one can add additional 10% to the due sum. Your tips will be greatly appreciated. Guides, taxi drivers and maids at your hotel should also receive a small reward.

The schedule of various cultural institutions can change depending on a season. Visitors can specify this in any tourist office. Many museums and galleries work from early in the morning until noon, and then they open only after 5:00 pm.
