KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Bonn
- Booking car rental in Bonn is a great way to explore this region of Germany. While Germany has a solid public transport infrastructure, your own car will fill in the gaps and give you total freedom when travelling. There are a number of excellent vineyards and castles in the region, and with your own car, you can travel on your own schedule (and sometimes beat the crowds). For example, Drachenburg Castle is around 20 minutes from Bonn by car and the Ahr Valley is around 40 minutes away. Getting to these locations by public transport often involves making multiple connections, so driving is usually easier.
- The closest airport to Bonn is Cologne Bonn Airport (CGN). You can find most companies offering car rental in Bonn at both terminals. Some companies have their desks close to the Baggage Claim area and will have their vehicles at the on-site car park. Some companies may send a shuttle or other transport to take you to their offices in town. It takes around 25 minutes to drive into Bonn from the airport. If you prefer to pick up your vehicle in town, you can take the Airport Express bus to Bonn Hauptbahnhof in around 30 minutes.
- If you plan on driving to major cities like Cologne, you may find the Autobahn is the fastest way to get there. Remember that not all sections of the Autobahn are without speed limits, and some sections have limits during wet weather conditions. These are marked with signs that read "bei Nässe". Additionally, bear in mind that there are heavy fines for lingering in the passing lane on the left. Luckily, this means that other cars will usually pass quickly.
- It doesn't snow often in Bonn, but Germany does require vehicles to have winter tyres equipped when driving in snow, ice or slush. So, if you're visiting in winter, consider getting a hire car with winter tyres. If your car is able to enter the inner city, you can expect narrow roads and one-way streets. It may be a good idea to map out your route beforehand. You may also encounter similar conditions if you head out to small towns on country roads. Finally, it's best to avoid drinking before driving when using car rental in Bonn. The general limit is 0.05%, lower than England's 0.08% and if you're involved in an accident that drops to 0.03%.
