Sixt Car Rental at Munich Airport

The Sixt Munich Airport rental counter can be found in the Central Area Z located between the two terminal buildings. Passengers with an advance reservation can pick up their keys and documents from the station, which is open from 06.00 am to midnight every day.

Bookings and enquiries can be made either by telephone on +49 180 526 2525 or by fax to +49 180 522 29 30 0011. Online bookings can be made via the official German website at http://www.sixt.de or at the international portal at http://www.sixt.com.

Here customers can see pictures and descriptions of the type or model of vehicles that might be available during the time the customers travel to Munich. Although no guarantee can be made that on the day of arrival the actual model or make seen on the day of booking will be available, the car will be as close in its characteristics as possible with regard to space for passengers and luggage, speed and fuel consumption.

Sixt Munich Airport has its pick up area located just outside the Zentralbereich Z / Central Area Z, however, at the end of the rental period the vehicle should be returned to the parking lot P26 or parking lot P9, according to instructions given by Sixt staff at the time of booking.

Hiring a car is a great way to travel around Germany’s most popular tourist destination. Although within Munich city centre most tourist attractions can be reached on foot, just a few miles out of the city there are some amazing sights to be seen. Castle Schwanstein, the fairy-tale castle with turrets that rise like icing sugar from their forested mountain top location or the equally enchanting castle on Lake Chiemsee, just a 5 km drive out of Munich’s centre.

The great choice of vehicles at affordable prices that Sixt car hire Munich Airport can supply is hard to beat. From VW Polo to Mercedes E class or people carriers like the Mercedes Vito seating up to 9 passengers – there will be something for everybody within the fleet. Reservations should be made at least 24 hours in advance to avoid disappointment on the day of arrival, especially during peak times like the summer months or early autumn, when Munich’s famous Oktoberfest, the world’s largest beer festival, is being held.

The minimum age for car rental with Sixt car hire Munich Airport is 21, but for some larger vehicles like cars from the full size range, people carriers and mini vans, drivers must be aged 25 or older. All drivers, no matter what their age, must be in possession of valid ID, a credit card and a valid passport. Changes to the booking or cancellations may attract a charge.

Car hire is not just affordable, it is also far more comfortable than using public transport, even though public transport is generally very efficient, clean and reliable in Germany. Some small towns and villages may have their own train stations, but services start to fade away from early evenings onwards, making it difficult to get back to the hotel in Munich. The city is also a great place for shopping – especially for clothes – and packing shopping bags into the boot of a rental car is simply far more convenient than carrying them around during sightseeing trips.
