Cheap Car Rental Dubrovnik Port –

The daily rate depends on the season, the car size and how early you book. Prices are highest in July and August and usually lowest in November. You can view live prices by searching for deals using your travel dates in our booking form. Some extras are charged as a flat amount per rental, not per day.

📌 Note: Standard rentals include Third Party Liability, Collision Damage Waiver (with excess) and Theft Protection. Fuel and tolls are not included.

⚠️ Important: Always check the extras and the fuel policy in the supplier’s terms before you book.

Usually not. Suppliers ask for a credit card to hold the security deposit. The card is for the deposit, not for the payment. A few suppliers accept a debit card, but they may ask for a higher deposit and extra insurance.

💡 Tip: If you do not have a credit card, ask a travel companion to be the main driver and use their card. You can be added as an additional driver.

Yes, if the supplier’s desk is open when you arrive. Large ferries can take a while to unload, so allow time to get off the boat and reach the desk. Have your documents ready so the handover is quick.

💡 Tip: Pick a pickup time that is a little after your ferry’s arrival, not at the exact minute.

Contact the supplier as soon as you know. Use the phone number on your booking voucher and give your new arrival time. Many suppliers will wait a short time. The length of the wait varies, so check your rental terms. If you arrive after the desk closes, the car may be released, and your booking may be treated as a no-show.

⚠️ Important: A missed pickup may mean a cancelled booking and no refund, depending on the supplier’s terms.

Sometimes. Some suppliers offer after-hours service, but only on request and only if you arrange it in advance. It usually comes with an added fee of around €25–40. Not every supplier at the port offers after-hours service. Make sure you check service availability before booking.

⚠️ Important: After-hours service cannot usually be added at the last minute. Arrange it before you travel.

Yes. Both locations are in Dubrovnik, so it is a simple same-city return. Some suppliers add a one-way or airport fee, so check the supplier’s terms before you book. The airport is about 20 km from the port, around 25–30 minutes by car.

✅ Good to Know: Many airport suppliers are open around the clock and offer a free shuttle between the terminal and the rental desk.

💡 Tip: Choose the airport return if you are flying out soon after. It saves you a taxi to the airport.

Sometimes. Not every supplier allows you to take rental cars on ferries, so ask before you book. Only some boats carry cars. Fill the tank before you go. That way, you won’t have to look for fuel on the island.

📌 Note: Lopud has no vehicle loading or unloading.

⚠️ Important: The ferry to Bari in Italy also carries cars, but it counts as a cross-border trip. You will need written permission for cross-border travel from your supplier first.

Usually yes, but only with the supplier’s prior authorisation. You must arrange it before you leave Dubrovnik, because it cannot be added at the desk. A cross-border fee applies, and you will need a Green Card. Take a passport for every passenger.

📌 Note: The main crossing to Montenegro is Debeli Brijeg (Karasovići). Waits can be long in summer. Vitaljina (Kobila) is a smaller alternative.

⚠️ Important: Rental insurance may become invalid without the supplier’s written approval. You could be fully responsible for damage or claims.

💡 Tip: Check the back of your Green Card to make sure the country you plan to visit is not crossed out. Driving on to Albania is possible with relatively fewer suppliers.

Yes, if the supplier offers the Dubrovnik Port / Ferry Terminal as a drop-off point. Return the car early enough to finish the check-in and walk to your boat. Check the desk’s opening hours, because some boats leave very early or late.

💡 Tip: Check the fuel policy in your rental terms and fill the tank before you return the car.
