Best car rental prices in Amsterdam
Bookingauto (Amsterdam) 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 Amsterdam can always collect them from the most suitable place.
Options and possibilities:
We take into account the preferences of our customers and look for a car that fits into the right category. For example, those who come to Amsterdam on their own or with a small company can rent a spectacular convertible Jaguar F-Type from us, starting at €110 per day and rented out by the popular company sixt in Amsterdam. For those of you who arrive with your whole family or friends, a roomy and reliable minivan Mercedes V-Class might be best - from €69 per day. For anyone who loves comfort and doesn’t have limited funds, budget recommends opting for a business class car like Mercedes E for €49 per day. For those travelling on a budget, rent a compact model Ford Focus for just €17 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 price changes depending on the month
During the high season in summer, car rental in Amsterdam costs 20-30% more than at other times. For example, renting the VW Passat popular in Amsterdam costs €16 per day in July. In autumn, you’d pay about €14 for the same model.
During the holidays, the demand for car rental is very high, which is reflected in both the price and the choice of available cars. Therefore, you should book in advance if possible.
Highest summer price for convertibles. For example, a Jaguar F-Type is offered at €110 per day.
Among budget models, the most demanded in Amsterdam is the Ford Focus. The sixt company rents it out for €17 per day.
Business class car rental in high season is also more expensive. For example, renting a Mercedes E costs about €49 per day.
With the arrival of autumn, demand gradually decreases and this is reflected in costs. For example, a Ford Escape 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 Amsterdam, you can easily rent a LEXUS RX 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.

The booking can be cancelled with a full refund at least 24 hours in advance (in some cases, 48 hours may be needed).
If cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice (or 48 hours in some cases), the administration fee will be deducted from the online payment amount but the rest of the money will be returned to your bank account.

If your online payment is less than the stated administration fee, there will be no refunds when cancelling your booking once the administration fee is applied.
If your booking is made less than 24 hours prior to the pick-up time (or 48 hours in some cases), a cancellation policy will be automatically applied to your booking.
Important information: All cancellations must be made in the “Manage My Booking” section and not directly through the car rental company itself.

If the car was booked with an additional insurance product, the policy will be automatically ended upon cancellation. The issue of reimbursement is resolved within the framework of the cancellation policy provided for by the terms of the insurance product.
