With a Sunny Cars rental car, it is possible to cross the border into surrounding countries such as the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Austria or Switzerland.

Plenty of choice for an unforgettable road trip! With a rich history, fascinating culture and surprisingly beautiful nature, it is an ideal destination to enjoy unlimited mileage.
Germany is known for its excellent road network, including the world-famous Autobahn. The roads are generally modern, well-maintained and well-signposted. Pay attention to different speed limits and be prepared for heavy traffic in and around major cities.
In Germany, a car with a slightly larger engine is recommended, especially if you plan to explore mountainous areas such as the Black Forest or the Bavarian Alps. An SUV is a fine category of car for travelling around, because of its higher seating and comfort on both motorways and rural roads.
Germany is good to visit all year round. It should be added that spring and autumn are particularly beautiful and pleasant in terms of temperature, while summer is the busiest season.
Germany is famous for its beer and sausages, but there is much more to taste. Enjoy local specialities such as Sauerbraten (pickled meat) and Dumplings (potato dumplings). Also try the various regional wines. Please note: if you have been drinking alcohol, we advise against getting into the rental car.
