Car rental in Tübingen

Driving in Tübingen

Experience the freedom and flexibility of discovering Tübingen behind the wheel. But first, let's acquaint you with the local rules which may differ from those back in Britain:

• Driving Side: Unlike in the UK, in Germany, you drive on the right side of the road.
• Speed Limit: City areas typically have a speed limit of 50 km/h (31mph), unless otherwise indicated.
• Parking: Tübingen has several multistory car parks scattered around the city. Parking on the street is also available but take note of the signages.

Selecting Your Car

From compact cars for navigating narrow streets to roomy sedans for family trips, you'll find a variety of rental cars to choose from. We recommend a compact car for easy manoeuvrability and parking in Tübingen's city centre.

Exploring Tübingen

Tübingen's enchanting old town ('Altstadt'), with its narrow alleyways and beautifully preserved medieval buildings, is a must-visit. Spend a sunny afternoon at one of the city's riverfront cafés, or take a traditional punt ride on the Neckar.

Neighbourhoods & Beaches

For a change of pace, head to the nearby Schönbuch Nature Park for walks, cycle rides or a picnic. Despite being landlocked, Tübingen does have a 'beach' at the waterfront Umweltzentrum Neckar-Friedrich, a popular summer hangout spot.

Climate

Summers in Tübingen are pleasantly warm and winters can be quite crisp. The city turns into a winter wonderland from December to February, making it a great time for a visit if you enjoy the chilly weather.

Surrounding Cities

Your rental car is a ticket to explore the enchanting towns and cities around Tübingen. Stuttgart, with its car museums and modern architecture, is just a 40-min drive away.

Final Thoughts

Embrace the charm of Tübingen, drive around its historic streets, and get ready to have an unforgettable German adventure. Safe travels!
