FAQs about hiring a car from Thrifty in Krakow

  • What vehicle types are recommended at Krakow Thrifty car hire?

    Our recommendations vary depending on your travel budget and the number of persons travelling with you. For instance, we generally suggest compact and small economy cars to singles and couples due to their affordability, handling and ease of parking. On the other hand, our nod goes to intermediate-sized saloons and small SUVs, which can comfortably seat 4-5 persons with adequate luggage room. If, however, you’re travelling with a larger party then we recommend going with a people carrier or passenger van, which affords increased seating and storage capacity. We also favour premium SUVs and luxury cars for those with larger expense budgets.
