KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Magdeburg

  • Using car hire in Magdeburg guarantees reliability and comfort while driving around. A hire car gives you the convenience of travelling at your own pace and time, allowing you total control over your travels. This level of convenience is something you won’t get with public transport that limits you with schedules. With a Magdeburg car hire, you can visit places like Barleben, 5.15 km (3.2 miles) away, Howenwarthe, 8.16 km (5.07 miles) away, and Samswegen, 12.66 km (7.86 miles) away.
  • If you fly to Magdeburg, you will land at Magdeburg-Cochstedt Airport (CSO), about 39.2 km (24.3 miles). The airport has on-site and off-site care hire agencies, so you don't have to worry about going all the way to the town centre to find a car. You can get any car, from a luxury to a compact car. Available car companies include Ace, Econony, Dollar, Payless, Sixt, National, and Budget, to name a few, and you can compare prices to find the best deal. The airport offers free shuttle services from the terminal to car hire offices.
  • Using a car hire in Magdeburg is relatively easy, as the road network is designed to accommodate regular traffic flow. However, if you are visiting Magdeburg for the first time, consider familiarising yourself with the traffic rules such as speed limits, driving side, and traffic signs to avoid getting in trouble. Always be mindful of cyclists and motorists when driving, and give them way where necessary.
  • Driving a Magdeburg hire car can be tricky during special events and when it’s snowing. Plan your trip in advance and your routes clearly for seamless driving. Similarly, driving during rush hour can be daunting as the traffic can get pretty high. The rush hour is typically around 07:00 to 09:00 and 16:00 to 18:00. To avoid getting stuck in traffic, ensure you avoid travelling during this time. If you must, find alternative roads to major roads like the Ernst-Reuter-Allee.
  • Book your rental car in Magdeburg at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Standard rental cars in Magdeburg are around 105% more expensive than other car types, on average

Generally, though, a compact car is great for manoeuvring narrow streets and parking in tight spaces. They also consume little fuel compared to most big cars, and are cheaper to hire. If you are travelling with your family or planning long road trips, consider going for a big car for their comfort. They also have great traction and can handle different terrains.

  • What’s the speed limit in Magdeburg?

    If using car hire in Magdeburg in urban areas, ensure you adhere to the 60 km/h (37 mph) speed limit to avoid getting into trouble with the authorities. However, there is no specific speed limit when driving a hire car in rural sections. When driving outside built-up areas, you should maintain a speed limit of 100 km/h (62 mph) and 130 km/h (81 mph) on freeways. In specific zones, such as near playgrounds, in school zones, and residential areas, the speed limit goes down to 30 km/h (19 mph) for children's safety.

  • What are the best places to Park in Magdeburg?

    Magdeburg has several car parking spaces from street to off-road. If you plan to explore the city and market on foot, you can park in one of Magdeburg’s street car parks. You can find free parking on Leiterstrabe and Netto. Other car parks such as Ulrichshaus, IntercityHotel, Karstadt, and Bei Der Hauptwache charge about €2 (£1.71) for the first two hours. Note that most of them also offer disabled spots. You can, however, find cheap car parks charging around €1 (£0.86) parking spaces, although there aren't many.
