Exiting Dortmund Airport

Fueling Up

Germany is dotted with numerous petrol stations. Before setting off on your journey, it's advisable to fill up. Most stations accept credit and debit cards, but it's a good practice to keep some cash just in case.

Distances, Tolls, and Road Conditions

  • German autobahns are famous for their efficiency. However, some parts do have speed limits, so always be alert for signs.
  • Tolls are generally not present on German highways, but it’s important to be aware of any toll roads if you're planning to cross borders.

Weather Influence

Germany’s weather can be quite diverse. While summers are generally mild, winters can be cold with occasional snowfall. Depending on the season of your visit, consider opting for cars with heating capabilities or air conditioning.
