Car Hire Zwolle Mini Guide

Car hire in Zwolle allows you to see this Overijssel municipality. It also gives you the flexibility to drive to the Dutch capital which is 120 kilometres away. The easiest way to get into the city is to fly into Amsterdam Schiphol Airport. You can prebook your hire car online for collection at the airport or from any of our numerous locations throughout the Netherlands.
 

Here's what you need to know about driving in and around Zwolle:

Driving in Zwolle:

  1. Local Regulations: Like the rest of the Netherlands, traffic in Zwolle moves on the right-hand side of the road. Ensure you're familiar with Dutch traffic rules and signs before you start driving.

  2. Cyclists: Zwolle, as with many Dutch cities, has a significant number of cyclists. Always be cautious and watch out for cycle lanes and cyclists when making turns or navigating intersections.

  3. Parking: The city center is partly a pedestrian zone, so parking can be a bit challenging. However, there are several parking garages and areas available. P+R (Park and Ride) facilities can also be an economical and convenient option.

  • Zwolle doesn't have its own international airport. The closest major airport is Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, which is approximately 125 km (about 1 hour and 30 minutes by car) away.

Tourist Attractions & Distances:

While Zwolle itself has several attractions, including the Museum de Fundatie, Sassenpoort, and Peperbus, there are other interesting places nearby that you can visit with a hire car:

  4. Deventer: Another historic city with beautiful architecture and a rich history. It's approximately 40 km (around 35 minutes) from Zwolle.

Tips:

  1. Navigation: Use a GPS or navigation app to help guide you, especially if you're not familiar with the area.

  2. Rush Hour: As with any city, be cautious of the rush hours which typically occur in the mornings and late afternoons.

Zwolle is centrally located in the Netherlands, making it a great base for exploring various parts of the country with a hire car. The road network is well-maintained, and signage is clear. Drive safely and enjoy your trips!
