Recently, tourists are increasingly opting to rent a car, and in Warsaw, this service is also available. You can rent a suitable car at the Chopin Airport. Another option is to pre-book car rental in Warsaw without a deposit through rental agency websites. This is an optimal solution if you are looking for affordable car rental in Warsaw.
In Poland, drivers aged 21 and over with an international driving license issued at least 1 year prior to the rental date can rent a car. When planning to rent a car in Warsaw (24/7), make sure you have sufficient funds on your international credit card as payment is usually made electronically.
As for the cost of rental, it depends on the type of car (make, class), the period for which you want to rent the car, additional services and options (eg, you can order a child seat or navigation equipment). Rental rates range from 110 PLN per day – this is the cheapest way to rent a car in Warsaw. Rentals include insurance and local taxes. In winter you will have to pay for winter tires.
If renting a car in Warsaw isn’t the right fit for you (perhaps due to cost), you can opt for another popular service — bike rental. The local system Veturilo offers bicycles at numerous rental stations throughout the city.
Bikes are available from March 1 to the end of November and can be rented for periods ranging from 1 to 12 hours (with the option to extend). To rent a Veturilo bike in Warsaw, you’ll need to register (via the website or mobile app) and top up your account with at least 10 PLN. The first 20 minutes are free, 21–60 minutes cost 1 PLN, the second hour is 3 PLN, the third hour is 5 PLN, and each additional hour costs 7 PLN.
