How much is a rental car per day in Gelsenkirchen?

Can I rent a car from Duesseldorf Intl. Airport (DUS)?
Car rentals at Duesseldorf Intl. Airport (DUS) are situated in the arrivals area. Here you'll be able to pick up a set of wheels at Buchbinder, Avis or Europcar. Hertz/Dollar/Thrifty and Sixt also have some exceptional deals.
What happens if I need to cancel my Gelsenkirchen car reservation?
No need to stress. You should receive a full refund if you cancel at least six hours ahead of the collection time. Your itinerary contains information about this, and so does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid homes will receive a refund though, so it's a good idea to go over your cancellation policy.
What types of cars can I rent in Gelsenkirchen?
Inexpensive, zippy and great on mileage, it's not surprising compact vehicles are the most booked home type in Gelsenkirchen. Drive around this city in one of these and you'll be able to slide into tight parking spaces and easily manoeuvre busy streets. A compact is ideal for city getaways or quick road trips. But they're not your only options. Go even smaller with an economy model or stretch out in an intermediate, a full-size or premium — the choice is yours!

What do you need to rent a car in Gelsenkirchen?
Before you can take the wheel in Gelsenkirchen, you'll need a driver's license and a credit card that matches the name on your license. If you decline to take out the company's insurance plan, you may also have to show proof of other coverage. Requirements can vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you choose a home supplier.

Where can I find a Gelsenkirchen car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look up the age policy of the Gelsenkirchen holiday home suppliers you're considering. If you're under the age of 25  be mindful that some will charge extra fees. It's better to know this before collecting the vehicle so you can budget accordingly. Each holiday home car company has its own rules for young drivers, so be sure to do your research.
