Car rental in Breda

Rent a car Breda

Would you like to rent a car in Breda to see everything of Breda and the surrounding area? That is possible! Breda is located in North Brabant and has over 180,000 inhabitants. This ensures that Breda is just in the top 10 with the largest municipalities in the Netherlands (ranked 9). Breda was first mentioned in 1125. So you can say for sure that Breda is an old city! The history of the city can still be admired in the current city centre. But in Breda there is more to see and do than admire history. Use this rental car in Breda to see as much as possible and make your trip worthwhile.

The city of Breda

Certainly worth a visit is Castle Bouvigne. With a rental car you reach it within 10 minutes. It is a beautiful large castle with a characteristic tower. Probably it was built in 1494, although after several restorations it looks different now than it did back then. The gardens at this castle are also worth a visit. Bouvigne Castle is not always open, so check in advance to see if you can go there. Other attractions are for example:

• The Walloon Church
• The Saint-Josse chapel
• St Anthony's Cathedral
• Breda Beguinage and St. Catherine Chapel
• Great or Our Lady's Church
• Court building
• Dome Prison
• Burger Orphanage
• Barracks of Breda

We will explain the latter for a moment. For centuries Breda was a fortified city. This is why many barracks were built. The Royal Military Academy is also located here. Famous barracks where you can get with a rental car in Breda are the monastery barracks and the Chassé barracks. Also pay attention to the houses when you drive through Breda. Several major fires in the past have burned down parts of the city, making some houses clearly older than neighbouring ones.

Where can I rent a car?

At Driveboo you can easily find where to rent a car. There are many places where you can rent a car to explore Breda and its surroundings. As a tourist who arrives at Schiphol, you have a wide choice of all car rental companies that would like to rent a car to you. It is wise to book a rental car before you want to use it. If you do not do this, you run the risk that no more car is available, or that the car you would like to have is already rented to another person. Of course there are also rental companies in Breda itself.

Choose a rental car in Breda

If you have decided that you want to use a rental car to view Breda, then you still have to choose in which car you want to drive. If you prefer to keep it as cheap as possible, then you opt for a small car. Do you need more space or do you just like larger and nicer cars then there is still much possible. Of course you also have to choose how you want the car insured. Are you going for an All-risk cover and do you buy the deductible, do you opt for an insurance for the tires and windows or do you perhaps want unlimited kilometres because you plan to drive a lot with the rental car? This is very easy to select with us using the selection filters on our comparison website. These are all things you should think about in advance. It is also a good idea to ask yourself if another navigation is needed. Tip: do not forget to check carefully which fuel the car is using. It would be a shame if you were to throw diesel into a petrol car or the other way around. These costs are almost always recovered from the renter of the car.
