Car Rental in Hungary

Everything you need to know about car rentals in Hungary - a list of rental companies at Budapest and Debrecen airports, including those located within the airport and those offering free shuttle services to nearby branches. Additionally, information on car insurance, toll roads, speed cameras, and recommendations for safe driving and proper navigation use.

If you are planning to rent a car for your trip from Budapest to Kerestir, here’s the essential information to help you with the process:

Car Rental from Budapest Airport:

• Counter Locations:
Most car rental companies have counters at Terminal 2B (where flights from Israel land).

• Car Pickup Locations:
The car rental lots are located next to the IBIS Hotel, which is adjacent to the terminal.

Car Rental Outside Budapest Airport:

Companies such as Klass Wagen, Green Motion, Autonom, and FMC Rent operate outside the airport.

( FMC Rent is Mainly luxury cars - great prices and excellent service!)

• Shuttle Service:
Free shuttle services are available to take renters from the terminal to the company lot and for car returns.

Car Rental in Debrecen:

There are three main car rental companies in Debrecen:

• Autonom
• Sixt
• Hertz

Recommendations and Tips:
1. Hertz:
Due to repeated complaints from renters, it is recommended to avoid renting cars from Hertz in Budapest and Debrecen.

2. Self-Insurance Cancellation:
• It is mandatory to add this insurance if renting from Klass Wagen or Green Motion to avoid misunderstandings or unexpected charges.

In Conclusion:

Choosing the right rental company and ensuring proper insurance coverage is key to a smooth and hassle-free trip. It’s recommended to check the availability of services and prices in advance, especially during busy seasons.

When renting a car abroad, it is important to pay attention to the insurance, as the deductible amount in case of damage or theft can be significantly higher than what is typical in Israel or from anywhere else.

Recommended Insurance Options:

1. Collision Damage Waiver (CDW):
• This insurance can be added directly through the rental company.
• It covers the deductible costs in the event of damage or an accident.

2. Self-Insurance Deductible Refund:
• Offered by independent insurance companies or car rental agency websites.
• In case of damage, you pay the rental company and claim a refund from the insurance.
• Often cheaper than purchasing insurance through the rental company.

Cleaning Fees for Rental Cars:

• You are required to clean the interior of the car before returning it.
• If the car’s carpets or interior are dirty (e.g., mud), you will be charged around 100 Euros for cleaning fees.
• Tip: You can clean the car yourself for a lower cost at a nearby gas station close to the Budapest airport.

Additional Recommendations:

• Make sure to take photos of the car from all angles (inside and outside) when picking it up and returning it to avoid unexpected charges.
• Check the insurance terms in advance, such as coverage for windshield damage, tires, and the car’s underside, as these may not be included in all policies.

When renting a car in Hungary, road toll payments are usually made by the rental company, especially if the car is rented in Budapest. However, if the car is rented outside of Budapest, you will need to pay and register the car for road tolls independently.

How to Pay Road Tolls in Hungary?

You can pay for road tolls at the following websites:
1. Autovignet.hu
2. Tolltickets.com

Using Navigation Apps: Waze vs. Google Maps

1. Waze:
• In Israel, it is sufficient to authorize toll roads once.
• In Europe, you must manually add the necessary toll authorizations for each country.
• Without the required authorizations, Waze might navigate you through longer routes, using side roads and villages.
• Example: A drive from Budapest to Kerestir in Waze, without toll authorizations, could take about an hour longer than in Google Maps.

2. Google Maps:
• Always navigates through the shortest and quickest route, even without adding toll authorizations.

Important Tip for Waze Users:
• Be sure to set up toll authorizations in Waze before starting your trip.
• After setting up toll authorizations, the app’s voice settings might change to Hungarian. This can be easily changed in the app settings.

Recommendation:
Before starting your journey, ensure all required tolls have been paid and your navigation app is properly set. Proper preparation will save you time and prevent delays on the way to your destination.

On the way to Kerestir, especially during busy periods such as the Hilulah, it is important to drive carefully and follow the speed limits according to the law.

Speed Cameras Along the Way:

• There are several speed cameras on the road, and it is recommended to use the Waze app to receive real-time alerts about their locations.
• Pay extra attention when driving back from Kerestir to Budapest:
• As you approach Budapest, the speed limit drops from 130 km/h to 50 km/h.
• This area is equipped with many speed cameras.

Increased Enforcement During the Hilulah:

• During the Hilulah period, Hungarian traffic police increase their presence around Kerestir.
• Officers are on the lookout for drivers exceeding speed limits or committing other traffic violations.

• Important Tip:
• If you receive a fine from a police officer, you will be required to pay it on the spot, and there is no immediate appeal option.

Recommendations for Safe Driving:
1. Make sure to use Waze or Google Maps for accurate navigation and alerts about speed limits and cameras.

2. Drive with extra caution, especially in areas where the speed limit changes suddenly.

3. During the Hilulah period, stay alert for the increased presence of police along the roads surrounding Kerestir.

Drive safely and responsibly – remember, the goal is to arrive safely and return safely.
