Traveling internationally by car promises freedom and independence. With Sixt as your partner, this dream becomes a reality when it comes to car rental. But before you get behind the wheel and explore the world, there are some important points to consider to ensure your trip runs smoothly and worry-free.
Planning is Key to a Successful International Trip
Even during the planning stages of your trip, you should consider several important aspects to avoid being slowed down by unexpected surprises later on.
Choosing the Right Vehicle for Your Needs
Before deciding on a vehicle, you should ask yourself the following questions:
- How many people are traveling?
- How much luggage needs to be transported?
- What distances will you be covering?
- Will you be driving mainly on highways or on winding mountain roads?
The answers to these questions will help you select the right vehicle for your needs. Sixt offers a wide selection of rental cars for every requirement – from small cars for city trips to spacious SUVs for family outings.
The Right Insurance for Your Rental Car
Comprehensive insurance is essential to be protected in case of an accident or damage. Sixt offers various insurance packages tailored to your individual needs. Inform yourself about the different options beforehand and choose the insurance that offers you the best protection.
“Good insurance gives you the peace of mind to fully enjoy your trip without constantly worrying about potential damage to the vehicle,” says Dr. Markus Berger, automotive expert and author of the book “Safe Travels – By Rental Car Through Europe”.
