What to see with your car rental in Croatia
Croatia is a beautiful country with many places to visit in with your car rental in Croatia. In fact, in recent years the roads have been upgraded and provide a comfortable and stress-free car hire experience. If you are starting your journey in the capital of Croatia, Zagreb, you can then take the upgraded E71 motorway to Split, which is a journey of just over 255 miles. Split is located on the coast and has some stunning scenery. Further south is the city of Dubrovnik, also on the coast. The city itself is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and gives an fascinating insight into the culture and history of Croatia.

Great car rental experience! Only downside is the long wait when getting the car. Super cheap prices when we rented an automatic in October 2022. Staff was friendly, young, chill and attractive. Didn’t try to push us on getting any extras other than the refuel thing which I declined.
Would def rent again when I come back to Croatia, hopefully there’s the same staff working there!

Had an excellent experience with Sixt! And the attendant drove us to the terminal after we dropped off our car in the rain, which was so nice, they went above and beyond. And everything was great with our car, it worked perfectly.
