Warsaw car hires from €6

Travelers intending to mainly explore the city of Warsaw should opt for a compact car that can fit through the narrow lanes and into parking spots easily. If venturing out into the landscape, an SUV or minivan are also good choices. A 4-wheel drive car is a good option in the winter or when planning to drive mainly through the countryside.

Always adhere to the speed limits posted on street signs. General regulations allow 50 kph (31 mph) in residential areas, but only 20 (12 mph) in school areas and zones with lots of pedestrian traffic. On express roads (which usually have one to two lanes going in one direction), 100 to 110 kph is allowed (62-68 mph) and highways allow up to 130 kph (80 mph).

Despite having narrow lanes, some streets in Warsaw have very broad sidewalks on which smaller cars can be parked half on the sidewalk, half on the road. These parking lots, however, are always indicated with a sign, so check beforehand if this is really a designated parking spot. Parking is usually metered and coins or cards can be used to feed the machine. Alternatively, there are parking lots or P+Rs like the Park and Ride Car Park Metro Ursynów in the suburbs of Warsaw, where cars can be parked for a longer period of time.
