Once you make a booking, we will send your confirmation email with the details of the booking.

You can request for a change to your reservation at any time, even multiple times, with no fee. Your request for a change will be processed and we will confirm if the requested change is possible within 12 hours.

Underpayments will be calculated on booking confirmation and will be handled at the counter at time of rental pick-up. Any overpayments will be refunded when the change is confirmed. Car rental rates may change and prices tend to be higher as the date of the amendment is closer to the rental start date. We promise that the rate you reserve is the rate you’ll pay – but we can’t promise that the rate you reserve today will apply if you lengthen, shorten or change your rental period. If you revise your rental period, the daily rate might change. Especially if the total rental period becomes shorter than a week. In general, the longer the rental period, the lower your per-day rate is. If you have already picked up your vehicle and wish to keep it longer, you must contact our company and check if the car is available. We have the right to deny the extension of the rental agreement if the car is already booked. If you decide to return the car earlier that the rental end stated at the rental agreement, we do not give any refund for unused days.

Rental Extension.

We have the right to deny the extension of the rental if the car is already booked. If extension is possible, there is a Grace Period of one (1) hour (i.e first hour delay in return is not charged) provided that our company is notified and has given permission. Next 3 hours are charged at €10 per hour. Over 3 hours delay, one day rate will be charged. Please note that a customer is not allowed to bring the car later than the agreed return time without having taken permission (having extended the rental) from our company since there is not any insurance coverage after the return time of the car.

You are not allowed to leave the incident place without reporting the accident. If you cannot contact our company, you should contact directly the police.
