Essen Car Rental Mini Guide

The nearest airport to Essen is Dusseldorf, 18 miles away. Dortmund is often preferable as low-cost airlines fly into it rather than Dusseldorf. Car Hire is available from both of these locations. 

Car Rental is also available in Essen itself, and we have a selection of cars available to suit all requirements. We recommend you secure your car hire booking as early as possible to get the best rates and choice of vehicle.
