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 Gdansk 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 Gdansk 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 Gdansk!

Do not forget some basic road rules. Just like in many other countries, in Poland, drivers are not permitted to talk on the cell phone while driving. If there is an urgent need to make a call or answer an incoming call while driving, you must use the phone with a headset.
In addition to informal light signals, Polish drivers actively use signs to communicate with each other. They can show with their hands that they give way to other vehicles, or wave to thank other drivers. Of course, there are other ways to thank. For example, you can turn on and off fault signaling quickly a couple of times.
