Airport Car Rental
Get your rental car at Warsaw Chopin Airport! Then drive to the center of Warsaw, a city where the historic and modern blend. Explore its old town and many museums, including the POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews, which just opened in 2013, and the Heavens of Copernicus, one of Europe’s most state-of-the-art planetariums.
Warsaw is a hip and happening place. The city regularly hosts music, film, theater, and art festivals, often held in unique venues that you can easily reach with your rental car. Another way to explore is to check out the city’s restaurant scene and sample local foods and dishes—not just (the admittedly delicious) pierogi, but also bigos, zapiekanka, and much more.
Warsaw is great fun, but why not explore even more with a longer term car rental? Visit historic cities like Krakow, head to the stunning highlands around Zakopane and other Tatra peaks in nearby Slovakia, or explore wildlife in the Bialowieza area. You can even pick up your rental car at Warsaw Chopin Airport and drop it off in a different city!
Warsaw Airport is also known as Frederic Chopin Airport.

Warsaw like most other cities Warsaw can be fast paced, busy and fairly spread out. There is plenty to do and see from historical sites to amazing shopping centers. The food is amazing. Be certain to understand the road laws and signs. Use a sat nav or google maps. It is an amazing city with plenty to offer. I highly recommend visiting any of the old towns across Poland. My fiancee is Polish so we visit quite often. We drive across to Lublin and the surrounding areas. Look for ski slopes in winter. We go to Stok Chrzanów, the staff are amazing and the amenities are second to none.
