Mietwagen Innenstadt Zagreb – Nahe Hauptbahnhof (Glavni Kolodvor)

Our Zagreb Center office is located at Ulica Kralja Zvonimira 37, in the eastern city centre near Kvaternikov Trg (Kvatrić) — a 15-minute walk or one tram stop from Glavni Kolodvor (Zagreb Main Train Station) and the main bus station. The office is open 08:00–20:00 daily and staffed on-site, so walk-ins during opening hours are welcome — no appointment needed. Ideal for travellers arriving by train or bus, city-centre hotel guests, and anyone starting a drive to Plitvice, the Dalmatian coast, or cross-border to Slovenia, Hungary, Austria, or Bosnia.

Zagreb is Croatia's capital and largest city — a compact, walkable mix of Austro-Hungarian Upper Town (Gornji Grad), lively Lower Town cafés, and one of Central Europe's best museum scenes (Museum of Broken Relationships, Mimara, Naïve Art). The funicular to Gornji Grad, the colourful tiled roof of St. Mark's Church, and the daily noon cannon from Lotrščak Tower are essentials. From October through April, Advent in Zagreb transforms the city into one of Europe's top-rated Christmas markets.

A rental car from our Zagreb Downtown office unlocks continental Croatia and four neighbouring countries inside 2 hours: Plitvice Lakes (130 km / 1h 35 min), Samobor (25 km / 30 min, famous kremšnita cream cake), Trakošćan Castle (90 km / 1h 15 min, fairytale hilltop fortress), Varaždin (90 km / 1h 10 min, baroque capital), Krapina Neanderthal Museum (55 km / 55 min), Sljeme/Mt Medvednica gondola (15 km / 30 min), Ljubljana (170 km / 2 h cross-border), and Budapest (345 km / 3h 30 min cross-border). Summer one-ways to Split, Zadar, and Dubrovnik are among our most popular routes.

Best Alternative to Taxi, Uber & Bolt in Zagreb

Both Uber and Bolt operate in Zagreb with competitive fares, so a quick Old Town transfer or ride across the Sava is cheap. However, for any multi-day stay with day trips to Plitvice, Samobor, Trakošćan, or across a border to Ljubljana or Budapest, renting from our Zvonimira 37 office is dramatically cheaper than stringing together ride-shares and organised tours. A 3-day Avax rental includes unlimited kilometres, full insurance, compliant winter tyres (Nov 15 – Apr 15), and free cross-border paperwork — typically less than two half-day bus tours.

Winter Rentals in Zagreb — Tyres & Equipment Included

Zagreb sits in continental Croatia where snow, fog, and sub-zero temperatures are common from November through March. All Avax Zagreb rentals include compliant winter tyres and an emergency kit at no extra charge from 15 November to 15 April — a legal requirement on inland motorway routes and a common surcharge point at competitors (€5–10/day). If you're driving to Plitvice in January, crossing to Ljubljana in a snowstorm, or heading to Sljeme to ski, this matters.
