Car Rental at Rostock Airport
Several renowned car rental companies operate within Rostock Airport's vicinity. You'll find their desks in the terminal buildings.

Driving in Germany vs. the UK
Driving in Germany may differ greatly from what Britons are accustomed to back home. Notably, drivers in Germany use the right-hand side of the road, thus making it sometimes challenging for the British. Also, the cars have the steering wheel on the left side, unlike UK cars. Be sure to familiarize yourself with this before taking off!
Exploring Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania
With the mobility your rental car provides, you can explore the breath-taking landscapes and historic sites in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.

Useful Information
Germany uses the Euro (€) and not the British Pound (£). Currency exchange is available at the airport. Germany generally experiences milder summers and colder winters as compared to the UK. Pack your clothing accordingly! Finally, there are plenty of petrol stations available near the airport and along the motorway if you need to fill up.
Now, with your hire car keys in hand, you're ready to start exploring. Safe travels!
