One-Way Luxury Car Rental in Europe

Pick up your car in one city and return it in another: with CarVia, a one-way rental works across Europe, and always in exactly the model you booked - never "or similar".

You do not even need to go to one of our rental stations. We deliver your car to your hotel in Munich and collect it at your hotel in Milan, at the airport in Nice or at any other address you choose. And you see the costs within seconds, right in our booking tool.

How a one-way rental works

  1. Enter where your trip starts. Choose "Deliver to address" in the booking bar and type in an address or simply the name of your hotel. If you would rather start at one of our stations, choose "Pick up at station".
  2. Enter where it ends. Select "Return to a different address" and enter your destination: a hotel, an airport, a private address or another CarVia station.
  3. See your price. Within seconds you see the available cars and the one-way fee for your route. No request form, no waiting for a quote.
  4. Drive. We hand over the car in person and walk you through it. At the end of your trip, we collect it where you are.

From hotel to hotel instead of counter to counter

Most car rentals start and end at a counter. We would rather come to you. Have your car delivered to your hotel on the first day and collected at your hotel on the last: no taxi to a rental station, no detour before your flight home.

If you prefer, you can still pick up or return at a CarVia station. At many of them you can return around the clock via the key drop box.

What a one-way rental costs

The one-way fee is calculated individually for every route, so there is no price list. What you get instead is the exact fee for your trip, shown within seconds while you book. With most luxury rental companies, you have to send a request and wait for a quote.

The easiest way to find out is to try it: enter your start, your destination and your dates in the booking bar above. There is no minimum rental period, and you do not have to book weeks ahead.

Where you can drive

Cross-border trips are possible with every car in our fleet to Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Italy, France, Monaco, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Portugal and mainland Spain. Select the cross-border option during booking and the car is covered for your route.

One-way rentals work with every car as well, from the luxury sedan to the supercar.

The best prices for cars in Germany. Good communication with customers, the deposit was returned the next day. I recommend👍

I hired an M3 Touring through this outfit and it was a great experience. The guy who handed over the car was really accommodating and helpful. The car was phenomenal and everything in the process was super simple and straight forward. Definitely recommend!

Fantastic service that I wish we had in Australia. Will definitely use again when in Germany. Great selection of cars at reasonable prices with great professional service. Had a Cayman GTS this time around for a few days and look forward to trying some of the other fleet vehicles next time!

Such an awesome experience! Rented a BMW M3 and the ride was such an amazing experience. Pick up was in Munich and drop off was in Salzburg and each time was ABSOLUTELY seamless. Will definitely rent again when I'm in Germany!

Great company. Rented a GT4 in Stuttgart, they took the time to walk around the car to document any damages, asked for me to take pictures and videos. Great process, Car was clean and in excellent shape. Super service, could not be happier. I will have to do a trip every year from now on.

One-way rentals for visitors from the US

Your US license is enough. A valid US or Canadian driver's license is all you need, no international driving permit. Bring your passport for the ID check.

Flying in and out of different cities? That is what one-way is for: arrive in Munich (MUC) or Frankfurt (FRA), fly home from Paris (CDG), Barcelona (BCN) or Amsterdam (AMS).

Minimum age. It is 25 for many models and higher for some of the most powerful cars. The booking tool shows the exact requirement for each car.

The deposit is only blocked. It is held on a credit card in the renter's name and never charged.

Free cancellation up to one week before your rental starts.
