Top tips for renting a car in Zagreb
- Renting a car is fun because you can drive to various destinations near the city. In addition, you enjoy the freedom of driving to places you like at your preferred time. Thus, booking cheap car rentals in Zagreb saves you money on fuel to several attractions. For example, Pustolovski Park Postojna and Predjama are located 136km southwest of Zagreb, a two-hour drive from the city. Another iconic place to visit is Stari Most, located 49km north of Zagreb, one hour from the city. Furthermore, you can enjoy a getaway to Sljeme, three hours from the city, to hike in the dense forest.
- Parking in Zagreb is accessible, including in the streets and national parks. You'll notice many cars parked throughout the streets. However, parking charges vary in various parking spots. Thus, choosing cheap car rentals in Zagreb saves you a few pennies for parking tickets. Luckily, you can choose public or private parking. Also, you can select a smaller rental car if you're traveling alone, such as a saloon car, that’s easier to park. Again, Zagreb is a safe city, and you don’t have to worry about parking your rental vehicle. Besides, you can contact Zagreb car rentals to ask about the best parking areas in the city.
- Speed limits in Zagreb depend on the roads and places, such as schools and crossing zones. There are various speed checkpoints to ensure safety in the streets. However, Zagreb has quality roads, and drivers may be tempted to overspeed in incoming lanes and highways. When driving rental vehicles, keep a speed between 80 to 130km/h on motorways, 50km/h in residential areas, and 20 to 30km/h in cities. Most car rental companies insist on speed limits for all renters. However, the speed limits are signposted throughout the city to help new and older drivers drive at the required speed.
- Visitors to Zagreb are highly advised to rent a car during their time here so they can take full advantage of what the city and the country as a whole have to offer. Some of the attractions that are made extra easy to visit with a car include the park Zrinjevac, Mirogoj Cemetery, and St. Mark's Church (Crkva sv. Marka). Also, with a car, visitors can take day trips to some of the neighboring cities like Samobor and Varazdin.
- Booked a flight to Zagreb Airport? Well, if you find yourself in need of a rental car too, you will find that rental car counters are located both within the airport’s main hall and in an adjacent parking lot.
- Zagreb’s streets are organized in a somewhat unique fashion in that a large portion of them are one-way roads. Rather than just smaller avenues and narrow lanes being one-ways, Zagreb instead opts for a traffic layout that is dependent on them. This can make navigating the city difficult at times, as many drivers are used to two-way roads being the dominant option in a city. However, if you plan ahead and have a GPS device ready, then you should not have too many issues navigating Zagreb.
- Unfortunately for drivers, Zagreb does suffer from moderate congestion during rush hour. The daily rush hour typically runs from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and then starts up again around 4:00 p.m. and finishes up at 6:00 p.m. Some of the streets worst hit by congestion during rush hour include Avenija Dubrovnik and Selska Cesta.

Pros:
The pick-up staff were friendly and knowledgeableCons:
The drop off was terrible. The person was not present- he had clearly just walked away from his desk. We waited for 45 minutes and almost missed our ferry. We had to leave the car in a parking lot without knowing if it was safe or would be ticketed. Very stressful.6.8 Okay

Pros:
The volkswagon golf was clean and drove without issue except low tire pressure on all 4 tires and the low windshield washer fluid was continually beeping.Cons:
Better hours for early flights. We paid for 7 days of of rental but had a 6:45 am departure flight on the seventh day and was told no one would be on premise without incurring an additional fee. We then agreed to drop off the car early on 6th day and were harassed to return the car early.10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
Excellent customer service by person working in downtown Zagreb location. Upon returning the car, the highway we were on was shutdown for 3 hours due to an accident and we arrived 2 hours after closing time. We called the office and they allowed us to return the car late, leave it parked on the street and drop keys/forms in drop box. They also checked on the highway closure for us as we did not have internet service in the location where we were stranded.Mack
