Booking & Pricing

Prices for small car rentals at Zadar Airport start from around €15/day in low season (October-February) and rise to €40–60/day in peak summer (July–August).

Significantly so during summer. Booking ahead is strongly recommended for July to September, weekends, and peak travel dates. This is especially true if you need an automatic transmission vehicle, a larger car, or a one-way rental — these categories are the first to sell out at ZAD.

During peak season from June to August, queues also arise at the terminal due to the large number of charter flights, meaning desk wait times on pickup will be longer if you have not pre-arranged everything online.

Yes, you can add a child or toddler seat to your rental car from the available add-ons on the booking summary page for an added fee. Child seats are a legal requirement for all vehicles in Zadar and throughout Croatia for children under 135 cm in height. Children between 135 cm and 150 cm must use a seat belt or booster seat in the rear, and those under 12 or under 150 cm are not allowed to be seated in the front seat.

Car fleets are listed by categories, such as compact, SUV, and luxury. So, you do not always get the exact car model as shown online. A model is displayed as an example to represent a vehicle category (e.g., “Toyota Camry or similar”), rather than a specific make, model, or colour. This is why deals are offered based on size, transmission, and passenger capacity, and other specifications.

If you still need a specific make or model, look for the ‘✓ Guaranteed Car Model’ label when searching for cars on our platform.
