There are traditional paid parkings (along the roads), which can be paid via pay machine or special parking disks.

We have been traveling around Europe for several years with the whole family and only by car. We have a great time when renting a van and driving along the most interesting places and excellent roads. We always use this site. We've seen countries not from the tourist, but from the most ordinary, but interesting point of view. The car aggregator always helps us. It is convenient to pay for the reservation on the site.

We wanted to look at the rural scenery of Portugal and the life of small towns. We arrived without problems and at the destination place we got the car rented in advance via this aggregator. The full package of included insurance was very useful, as there was a small accident.

I've compared the work of car aggregators for travelers for many times. I've chosen and tested different parameters and this resource has proven to be as stable as possible. I recommend it to everyone for security reasons.

We traveled to Israel and rented a car. We reserved a car via this resource. It gave the maximum number of options, among which we found the cheapest option. The car was very good. We returned it without problems. We didn't refuel the car as it was agreed. We recommend this aggregator!

When we sent our girlfriends for shopping, we rented the car via this resource and chose an inexpensive car, despite their desire to show off. They liked the trip very much. And The obligatory insurance against road accidents came in useful. Besides, it was already included in the rental cost. Our sweethearts met with a minor accident. By the way, it wasn't their fault. As a result, everything worked out, and we had a great time at home))). So the insurance is necessary.
