Recommendation for Car Class

Driving in Germany - Critical Differences

Driving in Germany reveals a few key differences compared to the UK, which is essential for you to note:

  • Right-hand Traffic: Unlike in the UK, traffic in Germany keeps to the right-hand side of the road.
  • Speed Limits: On autobahns (motorways), no formal speed limit exists. However, a recommended speed of 80mph is suggested.
  • Documentation: You need to carry your UK driving license, passport, insurance documents, and car rental agreement at all times when driving.

Fact about Euro

Germany uses the Euro (€) as its currency. If you need to exchange your pound sterling to Euro, you can do it right in the airport. There are numerous ATMs and Currency Exchange counters throughout the terminals.

The Climate

The weather in Hamburg is temperate with four distinct seasons. Bear in mind the weather condition, particularly in winter, as snowfall might affect driving conditions. Make sure to check the local forecasts and plan your trip accordingly!
