look at the car you are renting (big enough); get the full insurance. roads in switzerland are great and well marked but map is very useful for getting around. smaller car is easier to get around in if you are driving on smaller country roads.

FiorentinosJul 2024

All cars are based on the customers appetite, you cannot go wrong with any car in Switzerland. I would suggest SUV because it's really helpful if you decide to visit any alpine environment. One thing I would love to know before renting a car was the parking situation in Switzerland, that you need to pay for every hour you're parking (day and night). I was a bit flabbergasted but it is fair because in that way you give more freedom for the pedestrians.

PeterJun 2024

Some roads are quite narrow so be careful driving. Follow the speed limits as they are strictly enforced. Give yourself extra time to get to your destination. There is frequent road construction as the summer repair season is short. Use Google maps and don't freak out if you miss your turn as there is usually an easy way back even if it includes a number of one way roads. Parking is limited everywhere so car parks are a good solution. "Frei" means there are openings in the park. Take a ticket when entering and prepay using the machines before going to your car or you might find yourself having to back up to go pay the ticket.

Driving in Switzerland is a bit more fluid as there a a lot of yields as opposed to Stops. Learn the rule of the right if you are driving out in the country. And make sure you stay in the right lane of the freeway unless you are completing a pass.

Driving in Switzerland is amazing that all drivers seemed friendly and helpful to foreign drivers.

Driving in Zurich is a little stressful, I take public transport for almost everything. I would only book a car for accessing rural areas outside of town.

LesleyMay 2023

Take pictures before you leave their desk, dont be pressurized into taking any extra insurance, especially at the time you book the car , and make sure before you leave the USA what your credit card will cover. This is a crooked business that most car rental companies are involved in. In a different country, we were told the insurance that we bought at the time of booking was useless, rubbish, and covered nothing.

Discover the scenic city of Zurich and its beautiful landscape conveniently with a car. The quickest and easiest way from the airport, which is situated over 6 miles from the center, is by renting a car. Switzerland is among one of the most popular European countries for road trips, as it stuns visitors with its beautiful landscape, well-maintained roads, and lovely little villages dotting the countryside.
The easiest way to get in and around Zurich is to rent a car from one of the on-site airport car rental services upon arrival at Zurich International Airport. The rental center can be found in the Airport Center on Level 1, where cars from companies like Alamo, Enterprise, and Europcar await you. Follow the A1L into the heart of Zurich and let your fun in Switzerland begin.
Zurich is, like many European cities, very old and was built before cars were used, so inside the city streets tend to be narrow and parking is scarce. The city also has many one-way roads, which makes navigating a bit of a challenge at the beginning, so using a satnav or mapping out the route beforehand is a good idea. During peak hours in the mornings and evenings (around 6-8 am and 4-6 pm), congestion can occur and driving through the city during these times is not advised.
Switzerland has many gems to offer, and exploring the country by car allows travelers to find the best places. Street conditions in Switzerland are among the best in the world, but driving through the Alps, especially in wintery conditions, can be challenging for people who are not used to it. Drive slowly and make sure the rental car is properly equipped. Drivers who opt for an automatic car should familiarize themselves how to adapt speed for long, steep roads.
Whether you are coming to Zurich for business or leisure, you can take advantage of cheap car rentals in Zurich and travel around at your own convenience and pace. The historic Schloss Kyburg castle is nestled above the River Limmat is one of the top attractions that you should consider visiting while in Zurich. Renting a car during your stay also allows you to reach as far as St. Peterhofstatt (St. Peter’s Church), which is home to the largest clock face in the whole of Europe. Renting a car in Zurich allows you to explore the city at your convenience, and we strongly recommend booking one through KAYAK.
There are five airports near Zurich, with the nearest being Zürich (ZRH). This airport is approximately 6 miles from the city center. Some of the car rental companies you will find at this airport include Sixt, Hertz, Avis, Europcar, Alamo and Budget. Most Zurich car rentals have pick-up and drop-off points at the Zurich Airport. Additionally, you can opt for free shuttle services to and from the city center, pick up your rented car and drive off to your hotel.
Driving in Zurich is pretty much similar to driving around other European cities. You can expect occasional traffic snarl-ups. Most Zurich streets are quite narrow and finding parking may be just as challenging as finding a needle in a haystack. And if you are thinking about visiting the Alps, be ready for one-way traffic. That said, remember to turn your lights on while driving both at night as well as during the day. Also, keep in mind that you will be driving on the right side of the road. This means that you will be overtaking on the left side. There are not many roundabouts in Zurich and Switzerland as a whole. However, it helps to know how to navigate the few that are there. Finally, the speed limit in residential zones is 12 mph. The speed limit on highways can be as much as 75mph. Do look out for designated speed limits while driving around.

They charged me EXTRA on my credit card BEFORE I took delivery of the car even after I was assured the payment was made in full ( no balance owing). Upon return of the vehicle, they found a very minor nick in the windshield. I have attempted to have this resolved over MANY emails and keep getting the 'run around", even after they admit that the overcharge at the beginning was their mistake. They have considered the case closed and are with holding the money they mistakingly charged to my account ( the money owed is more than a windshield repair ) I will NEVER deal with Hertz Rental again.

The car was good, however, the girl at the counter failed to inform me that there was a cap on the km I could drive, even tho she asked me where I was heading.

Tons of hidden cost and basic insurance doubled the cost of the car we were originally quoted $400 for the entire trip with everything they wanted to charge $1600 to my card. I wasn’t planning for that much And wasn’t able to pick up the car.

My worst experience in rental cars in a decade. I have rented cars across many countries and continents and ironically the worst experience was in Switzerland. There was missing information in the pick up. They lied about insurance of the car in the pick up. The insurance value was a daily amount and not a single amount like they mentioned. Also they overcharged 20CHF due to a reason they could not figure out at the dropoff and couldn't repay in it! needed to write an email to complain and still waiting for the money

the staff were great. we had 6 people and the 7- passenger Renault Espace we had was not very comfortable and had odd controls. the third row seating was only for children and difficult to get into. when you stopped, the driver seat moved back to aid exit, but that crushed the person sitting behind the driver. the shift stalk was too near two other stalks on the right of the steering wheel. too many controls were on the center screen, so difficult to figure out while driving. the espace hybrid, however, was very economical. a vw minivan would have been far more comfortable! (we rode in one) - same length, but taller, so more space.

Convertible

How can any words describe the experience I received??? Online the quote I agreed was £330 for 5 nights hire of a mini convertible. On the day I arrived I was told this figure was not correct and I should now pay £400 plus an additional £135 for insurance. Ok insurance fair enough, it’s high but it’s still a choice, but why the additional £70 above quoted price, which by the way stated includes ALL fees! However it get far worse, on the final day our flight was cancelled so I emailed asking to extended my booking 1 day… A new invoice arrives… £780!!! So what started at £330 ended up at £780… take off the £135 for insurance that’s an un-expected increase of £315 for an additional days hire… Oh and what did the advisor say at the airport… ‘Welcome to Switzerland, get used to it!’ Complaint raised, but of course no response…

Poor pick up instructions: No mention in email of where/how to pickup. No mention that Thrifty was at Hertz counter. Very small Thrifty sign that I missed. Airport info desk told me to take a shuttle to holiday inn?! I wasted a lot of time finding the pickup.

Standard SUV

Staff refused to give us the car at stated pick up time of 4pm and tried to upsell us to another car saying that the original car booked would not be available for 3 hours and we would have to wait. We only managed to get the car after over an hour of waiting and arguing with staff. Extremely aggressive and non stop use of scam tactics in an attempt to upsell.
