KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Balice

  • There are several advantages to renting a car in Balice. Renting cheap car rentals in Balice opens up opportunities to explore some of the surrounding areas. For example, just a short drive from Balice is the Ojcowski National Park, which is home to stunning geological formations, medieval castles, and a variety of wildlife. Other attractions that are more accessible with Balice car rentals include the Wawel Castle, the Rynek Główny (Main Market Square), and the historic salt mine in Wieliczka. Additionally, while the city has a decent public transportation system, it can be time-consuming and inconvenient to rely solely on public transport.
  • Krakow J. Paul II Balice Airport (KRK) is the main airport serving Balice. The rental car offices at KRK are located in a dedicated building adjacent to the airport terminal building. The building is within walking distance of the passenger terminal, and the way to the car rental facility is well-signposted. However, if you have heavy luggage or if you prefer not to walk, there is a free shuttle bus service that runs from the terminal building to the car rental facility. Katowice Pyrzowice Airport (KTW) is located approximately 75 miles southwest of Balice. The rental car offices at KTW are situated inside the airport terminal building near the arrivals area.
  • There are a few things that people should be aware of when driving cheap car rentals in Balice to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. Drivers should familiarize themselves with the standard road signs in Poland, as they may differ from those in other countries. Signs will usually be in Polish, so it's helpful to have a basic understanding of the language. One unique sign to keep an eye out for is "ostrzeżenie przed zwierzętami" which means "warning of animals" and denotes areas where there may be wild animals on the road. There are also plenty of trucks on the road, so drivers should exercise caution when driving near them.
  • The busiest times of day to be driving cheap car rentals in Balice are typically between 7 am and 10 am and 3 pm and 7 pm on weekdays, particularly on major roads leading into and out of the city. The A4 motorway and the Krakowska Avenue that leads to the city center are heavily congested during these times. Additionally, certain areas around the city center such as Wawel Castle and the Main Market Square can also experience heavy traffic. In addition, winter can be particularly difficult for driving in Balice due to the potential for heavy snowfall and icy roads.
  • Compact rental cars in Balice are around 26% cheaper than other car types, on average
