Should I rent a car in Slovakia?

In short, yes! Europe’s most castellated nation, Slovakia is a hidden gem still relatively undiscovered by tourists from the rest of Europe. 

Start your Slovakian adventure in the capital city, Bratislava. With a hire car, you can explore Bratislava Castle, perched on a hill overlooking the city, and take in panoramic views of the Danube River and the historic Old Town. Drive to the Old Town to wander through its charming streets, visit landmarks like St. Martin's Cathedral, and enjoy a coffee or a meal in one of the city's many cafes and restaurants.

Slovakia is known for its stunning natural landscapes, and the Tatra Mountains in the northern part of the country are a hiker's paradise. Drive to the town of Poprad, which serves as a gateway to the High Tatras, and from there, you can embark on various hiking trails suitable for all levels of hikers. For a more challenging hike, consider climbing to the summit of Gerlachovský štít, the highest peak in the Tatras.

Where can I rent a car in Slovakia?

Whether you are looking for an alternative ski destination, or wonderful forests and mountains to hike through, Slovakia is the location for you. We serve both major airports and cities here, so whatever type of break you seek, we can be on hand to assist.

Kosice is the perfect gateway to all of eastern Slovakia.
