  • The coverage offered for your Bachenbülach car hire can differ between companies, so make sure you understand what you're signing up for. While some include a collision damage waiver (CDW), others will make you pay extra for it.

  • Choosing a one-way car hire is often a great hack for cheaper deals. Click 'Return car to a different location.' Providers sometimes have to move vehicles from one branch to another, which means you can snag some great one-way prices on a car for rent in Bachenbülach.

  • Spend less on fuel by picking a vehicle that offers a 'Fair fuel policy.' You pick up the car with a full tank and drop it off full, so you're only paying for what you use.

Insurance and optional extras

  • Excess insurance covers what you'd otherwise have to pay if your Bachenbülach car hire is damaged or stolen. While not compulsory, you'll be glad to have it if something goes wrong. Keep in mind that not all insurance policies are the same, so make sure you know exactly what's included.

  • Travel smarter when you rent a car in Bachenbülach by adding a few nifty extras. Think things like a GPS unit to keep you headed the right way, or reverse cameras that'll help you park like a pro.

Good to know

  • Check each company's age requirements before booking your rental in Switzerland. Rules can differ, and added fees or restrictions may apply if you're a younger driver. At the start of your search, simply uncheck the 'Driver aged between 25–70' box and enter your age to explore your options.

  • If the kids are coming with you, check if you need to add a child car seat to your Bachenbülach car hire booking. Whether required by local laws or not, they're always the safest way for little ones to travel.

  • You'll need to bring a few things when collecting your rental car: an official driver's licence, another form of photo ID, and a credit card that can cover the security deposit. Debit cards aren't widely accepted. Any extra must-haves will be shown in your booking.

  • Take your time getting acquainted with your rental. Adjust your seat and mirrors, find the lights and wipers, and get a feel for its handling before you set off. And remember to stay on the right side of the road in Switzerland.

  • Follow the local speed limits. Most of the time that's around 45kph in urban areas and 110kph or so on highways, unless road signs indicate differently.

  • The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit in Switzerland is 0.05%. Since alcohol's effects vary from person to person, it's best to skip drinks entirely so you remain legal to drive.

  • Around 8am is one of the busiest times for traffic around this destination. Try to avoid rush hours if you want a smoother run.

  • You'll be using the Swiss franc (CHF) on your trip here. As well as your bank cards, have some cash handy for minor purchases.

  • The language most commonly used in this country is German (Swiss German).
