Germany-Switzerland-Austria-Czech Republic-Germany

For the past few years, I have been traveling to Germany and Switzerland every January. This is my second time renting a car at Frankfurt Airport. Buchbinder is located right inside the airport, making it easy to find. The staff were very nice throughout the process. Picking up the car from the garage was convenient, and the car was new and well-equipped. Everyone was very satisfied!

I brought my driver's license and the free international driving permit translation certificate from Zuzuche, but I didn't get the German sworn translation certificate. As a result, the German car rental company required me to take full insurance or I wouldn't be able to rent the car. I was in a hurry and didn't have time to argue, so I ended up paying over 200 euros for insurance for 6 days while the car rental itself was just over 150 euros! Last time I used rentacars.com in Germany and paid directly on the website, then went to sign the contract and got the keys without anyone asking about the sworn translation certificate or insurance.

Waited in line for over an hour

I arrived at the Global Drive rental office at 7:30 AM. There were two staff members present; one was assisting a customer while the other was doing nothing. I waited in the queue for about 20 minutes before the idle staff member attended to me.

The rental company is Global Drive.
