Good to know

  • If the kids are tagging along, find out if you need to add a car seat to your Constanța car hire booking. Whether local laws require them or not, they're always the safest way for little ones to travel.

  • Come prepared to make pick-up as quick as possible. You'll typically need your physical driver's licence (not a screenshot or digital version) and another form of photo ID. Also bring a credit card that can cover the deposit. If anything extra is required, you'll find it in your booking.

  • Driving in Romania may feel unfamiliar if it's your first time. Keep in mind you'll need to stay on the right side of the road.

  • Make sure you stay within the local speed limits. Usually that's around 45kph in built-up areas and 125kph or so on highways, unless road signs indicate differently.

  • Skip driving altogether if you'll be consuming alcohol. Romania has a zero-tolerance policy on drinking and driving, and penalties may apply.

  • One of the busiest times to be out on the roads in this destination is around 8am. Make life easier by steering clear of rush hours in general.

  • You'll be using the Romanian Leu (RON) on your trip here. As well as your debit and credit cards, consider taking some cash for smaller purchases.

  • Romanian is the language you'll hear most often in this country.
