Car hire - simple, easy, and affordable prices

Bookingauto (Sofia Airport) strives to make your car rental experience as simple and convenient as possible. This also applies to the location of rental points. Our clients can pick up cars in the most popular places, whether it be the city centre, airport, or main railway station. The list of our pick-up locations is extensive, meaning that visitors who book cars with us in Sofia Airport can always collect them from the most suitable place.

What we can offer:

By contacting Bookingauto.com, customers can be sure that there is the right type of car waiting for them. For example, if one person or a small group of guests arrives in Sofia Airport, it makes sense for them to rent a Convertible Mercedes C cabrio from €90 per day. This presentable and comfortable car is offered for rent by EUROPCAR. When it comes to a family or a large company, the best choice may be a Minivan VW Transporter at a rate of €79 per day. Your trip will be pleasant and safe in this roomy car. For those who want some extra comfort and have the appropriate budget, SIXT is ready to offer a Business-class model - BMW 5 series. A budget transport option for a journey would be a Seat Ibiza car, compact but quite convenient, the rental of which would cost about €15 per day.

Select the exact date and time for picking up and returning the car:

If you want to save money, choose the same pick-up and return time. Car rental companies charge for a full day of rent, so if you rent a car for 25 hours, you pay for 48 hours (two full days), and 73 hours would be equivalent to four full days of rent.

How the cost changes in Sofia Airport

The highest demand for car rental in Sofia Airport occurs during the high tourist season - summer.

On average, the cost increases by 20-30% and the choice of available cars is also significantly reduced if you don’t book in advance.

For example, in July, the average price for the popular model Mercedes C Class in Sofia Airport is €26 per day.

In autumn, the same car costs about €8 per day.

In the summer, prices for convertibles are especially high. As a guideline, a Mercedes C cabrio will cost €90 per day for the duration of the vacation period.

Among the economy classes, the most popular model in Sofia Airport is the Seat Ibiza. The rental price for such a car starts from €15 per day from EUROPCAR.

For lovers of comfortable driving, you will also have to pay an increased price for business class cars – a BMW 5 series will cost about €75 per day.

With the arrival of autumn, demand gradually decreases and this is reflected in costs. For example, a Opel Mokka at this time can be rented for just €39 per day.

Fans of exclusive car models also find it easier to fulfill their requests in the autumn months. For example, in Sofia Airport, you can easily rent a Porsche Macan to travel in style through the streets of the beautiful city. Rest assured that the memories of these drives will linger in your imagination for a long time.

Answers to popular questions about car rental in Sofia Airport

Question: What is included in the car rental price?

Answer: The cost of renting a car in Sofia Airport is usually made up of unlimited mileage, car damage insurance (CDW), and VAT. Some additional services that can be added are insurance against theft, inclusion of a child seat, and admission for a second driver to use the car. As a rule, the client picks up the car with a full tank of fuel. You must fill it up on its return. In the rental conditions of the selected car, you can find a full list of services that are included in the rental price. Therefore, we recommend that you carefully read all of the important information before booking.

Question: Is it possible to rent a car in one destination and return it in another city?

Answer: You can pick up a car in Sofia Airport and return it in another city, but you will have to pay extra for this. When booking, find the option "Return in another location" in the search form and indicate the city in which you will return the car. However, this option is not available for all cars. The system will return eligible options to you in the search results. The indicated rental price in this case already includes an additional fee for returning the car in another city. In some circumstances, the need to return a car in another city may arise after the lease has been issued, i.e. during the use of the vehicle. In this case, you need to call the rental company directly at the phone number indicated on the voucher to come to an agreement and discuss the terms of the surcharge.

Answer: Most people in Sofia Airport rent cars that fall under the category of Compact and Mini. In terms of models, the most popular ones are Seat Ibiza and Kia Picanto. To choose a rental car that will meet your expectations as much as possible, take your time with making a decision. Compare the characteristics of the chosen car with your requirements and imagine how comfortable the trip will be in it. If you have a lot of luggage, make note of the volume of the boot; if you want a car with a fuel-saving function, this also needs to be considered, etc.

Question: How do I hire a car near my location?

Answer: For almost any location in Sofia Airport, you can find a car rental office on our website. Click on the "Rent a car near me" icon in the search form.
