    Regarding highway driving: you are always supposed to drive on the right lane unless you are overtaking. Driving in the middle lane (lane hogging) is frowned upon. Just something to remember for your next trip to Europe :)

      Pickup and drop services are very easy. Just show your DL and booking confirmation at the counter and they’ll give you the car. For drop they will tell you where to park and also where is the Dropbox for the key.

    Thanks for these informative videos. It really helps for planning our Europe Trip in July this year. We are planning to visit Innsbruck, Salzburg and Vienna in Austria. Do you recommend taking rental car to explore the cities or will the public transportation will be efficient?

    • @Trippylens_
      @Trippylens_  2 месяца назад

      No cars for exploring the cities! Only stick to public transportation.

    Hey there
    Thanks for the tips! We are travelling to Munich this September and plan to rent a car and drive to Swiss, Italy, Austria and Czech before returning the car at Munich after 16 days. Are there any additional border crossings permits that we need to buy do you know…? Or is it not feasible way of road trip..? Thanks in advance!

    • @Trippylens_
      @Trippylens_  11 месяцев назад +1

      Sounds awesome! You just have to inform them when picking up the car that you’ll be crossing borders and accordingly they’ll charge you.
      European roads ofcourse are amazing and you can easily cover large distances in very short time. Have fun 😁

    Hello, Thanks for the infos. Any valuable information about child car seats . Is it mandatory to use car child seats for kids below 12 years?

    • @Trippylens_

      Hey! As far as I am aware using child seats are mandatory. You can easily get it from your rental car company while picking up the car!

    This video is incredibly informative. Could you please provide information about the total border fees for a trip from Croatia to Montenegro, then to Bosnia, and finally back to Croatia?Thank you in advance!

    • @Trippylens_
      @Trippylens_  10 месяцев назад +1

      Thank you so much 😀
      The border fees that we had to pay was I think 50 Euros (this fees cover all the border that we crossed - Montenegro & Bosnia). But they keep changing the fees. & the structure was different for every company!
      Please check your rental car terms before booking . It will be mentioned under the ‘Extra Services (Payable at Counter)’ tab.

    • @Trippylens_
      @Trippylens_  Год назад +1

      Thank you!😊 Normal Indian DL (in English) works fine but it’s highly advisable to carry an International Driving Permit (IDP) as well. You can easily get it from your nearest RTO .

    • @Trippylens_
      @Trippylens_  Месяц назад

      I am not sure how legit these documents will be. You can always go through an agent.. there are many located outside any RTO and will help you get the IDP within a week or less than that

      It will have the vignette for the country you pick up the car in.. for other countries you might have to purchase after crossing borders. Please inform at the pickup place about the countries you plan to visit and they will inform you accordingly.
