How to Rent a Car in Bulgaria

 

Car rental is one of the most popular modes of transportation in Sofia, particularly for visitors who are looking to travel around in style.

In Bulgaria, there are many car rental companies that offer good car rentals without a deposit. To find these companies in Sofia, you can use a search engine like Google or Yahoo!

 

A deposit is required when you book a car online. The companies require an amount of money known as the 'deposit' in advance.

When you book a car hire service online, the company will send you a confirmation email that contains all the relevant information regarding the deposit required and how much time you have to pay the deposit if you wish to do so.

 

Some companies in Bulgaria may require you to pay a daily parking fee. This cost is usually added to the total amount of the entire price of the car hire service. Some companies in Bulgaria may require that you pay an additional administrative fee for using their car hire service. This fee is normally a percentage of the total amount that you have paid towards the deposit. Inquiries should be made as to whether the company requires you to pay an additional administrative fee.

 

There are different ways to get around in Sofia. You can rent a bicycle, a moped or a taxi; or you can drive your own vehicle. If you would rather drive your own vehicle, you should be aware that you will need to pay some extra fees to drive your own car hire in Bulgaria. You should also keep in mind that if you wish to rent a car from an airport in Sofia you will most likely have to pay an insurance deposit on the car prior to the hire being guaranteed. The insurance deposit is usually refundable if the car is not damaged during the period of the car rental.
