Car rental in Saarlouis

Peculiarities for Brits

Germany's way of life differs somewhat from that in the UK, making it a quirky and exciting destination for holidaymakers. Here are a few peculiarities to keep in mind:

• The currency: Germany uses the Euro (€), so remember to exchange your money before travelling.
• On the right: Unlike the UK, German road users drive on the right-hand side, so take care, especially when turning at junctions.
• Electric sockets: in Germany are type F with two round pins, so pack an adaptor for your UK electronics.
