KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Tübingen

  • Car rental in Tübingen is your best option when it comes to touring around the city and the surrounding region. You won’t have to rely on public transportation schedules and can get around at your own pace, alleviating any stress caused by waiting for buses or trains. From Tübingen, you can drive to various places that are popular amongst tourists and locals alike. Check out cities such as Stuttgart, which you can drive to in under 40 minutes, or the beautiful Black Forest region, which takes around 1h 30min to drive, and also the charming Heidelberg which takes about 1h 45min by car.
  • If you want to arrange car rental in Tübingen, the best place to arrange this is from Stuttgart Airport (STR). Here, you have the best range of vehicles and numerous car hire agencies to choose from, and you can reach Tübingen in under 30 minutes by car. As you arrive at the Arrivals Hall of Terminal 3 at the airport, you can locate the car rental desks easily on Level 2, while the car collection points are directly opposite the terminal building on the Ground Floor.
  • When looking into organising Tübingen car hire, make sure you hold a valid Indian driving licence and an International Driving Permit (IDP) issued by the Indian authorities, as it's usually necessary for Indian tourists to have for driving in Germany. If you're travelling with children, ensure they are safely seated in a child safety seat, and all passengers should wear seatbelts. Keep in mind that Germany's legal blood alcohol content limit for driving is 0.05%, so it's advisable to refrain from consuming alcohol if you plan to drive.
  • When travelling on the roads in Tübingen, it’s best to avoid driving during the morning (7:00 to 9:00) and evening (16:00 to 19:00) rush hours if you can avoid it, as you will likely get stuck in traffic at these times. It’s worth avoiding major roads, such as the B27 and B28, which connect Tübingen with Stuttgart and Reutlingen. Busy streets in the city’s centre, such as Wilhelmstraße and Bismarckstraße, can get backed up, while Karlstraße is similar, especially when special events can take place in its vicinity.
  • Luxury hire cars in Tübingen are around 38% cheaper than other car types, on average

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Tübingen?

    When driving in Tübingen, the best car choice will vary based on specific factors, including the number of travellers and the amount of luggage. For two or three people with limited luggage, a compact car is an excellent option. It can easily manoeuvre through narrow city streets and fit into tight parking spaces. Moreover, compact cars are highly fuel-efficient, making them a cost-effective choice. However, if your plan involves exploring the countryside, an SUV vehicle provides reliability and versatility.

  • What’s the speed limit in Tübingen?

    In Tübingen, it’s paramount that you do not exceed the speed limits. In built-up areas and residential zones, the speed limit is typically 50 km/h. Look out for signs indicating changes in speed limits, as this may be the case on certain roads. On non-urban roads, the speed limit is usually 100 km/h, unless otherwise indicated by traffic signs. On the German “autobahn”, which is the highway, there are some sections with no speed limits. However, many sections do have posted speed limits, and it's essential to adhere to those signs. The speed limit on the autobahn can vary from 80 km/h to 130 km/h, depending on the specific section.

  • Where are the best places to park in Tübingen?

    For your car rental in Tübingen, check out the best parking areas before setting on your journeys. Tübingen has several Park and Ride facilities on the outskirts of the town. These car parks allow you to park your car and then use public transportation to reach the city centre easily. The P+R lot "Bühl" is a popular choice. Königgarage is a multi-story car park located near the city centre. It is one of the most convenient options if you plan to explore the old town, but it can get busy, so arrive early during peak times.
