Driving in Zurich
Major car rental companies in Zurich include Hertz, Avis, Europcar, and Sixt. Typical daily rates range from CHF 70–150, with weekly rates from CHF 400–900. Drivers must be at least 20 years old and hold a valid driver’s license. An International Driving Permit is recommended for non-EU/EFTA license holders. Roads are well-maintained, but parking in the city center is limited and expensive. Public transport is so efficient that renting a car is generally unnecessary for tourists staying within Zurich. For day trips to the Alps or countryside, a rental car can be convenient but is not essential.
