Browse the offers available with kaizen rent, Car Net and Enterprise. They're among the top-rated providers in the city.
Always check if a collision damage waiver (CDW) is part of your Sopot car hire policy, whether you book with kaizen rent or another supplier. Some companies treat it as an optional extra instead of bundling it in.
Consider booking a one-way home. You might be able to score a bargain if the provider needs to move cars between branches. Find the best available rates by clicking 'Return car to a different location.'
Cut down on fuel costs by picking a vehicle that offers a 'Fair fuel policy.' You collect your ride with a full tank and drop it off full, so you only pay for what you use.

Good to know
Age requirements often vary by provider (and even car type), so be clear on the rules before you book. Some providers in Poland may rent to younger drivers for an additional fee. If you're outside the typical age bracket, simply uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to browse your options.
Kids coming with you? Car seat requirements differ from place to place, and the right setup may depend on their height, age and weight. Find out if you need to add one to your Sopot car rental booking.
Come prepared and keep pick-up quick and easy. You'll generally need your physical driver's license (no digital copies) plus another photo ID. Also keep a credit card handy to cover the required excess. If anything else is expected, it'll be listed in your booking.
Spend some time getting acquainted with your home. Adjust your seat and mirrors, find the lights and blinkers, and get used to how it handles before you set off. And remember to stay on the right side of the road in Poland.
Local speed limits may vary, but it's usually around 45kph in built-up areas and 125kph or so on highways. Always obey the posted signs.
In Poland, the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit is 0.02%. If you expect to drink, leave the driving to someone else or arrange a taxi or ride-share instead.
Aim to travel outside high-traffic periods for a smoother run. 8am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.
You'll be using the Polish złoty (PLN) for day-to-day spending throughout your trip. You may find it helpful to carry a mix of cash and cards so you always have a backup option.
