Cheap car rental in Slovenia: drive through the Alps and along the coast of this European jewel
Slovenia is one of the most complete and surprising destinations in Central Europe. In just a few kilometres it combines alpine lakes, spectacular caves, historic towns and a small but charming Adriatic coastline. Choosing a cheap car rental in Slovenia allows you to design a flexible route and make the most of every day of your trip without depending on a fixed schedule.
Thanks to its compact size, the country can be covered in just a few days, but having your own vehicle makes all the difference when it comes to accessing natural surroundings, mountain villages and coastal areas that are less well connected by public transport. Car rental in Slovenia provides autonomy and makes it easy to combine different regions on a single itinerary.
From Ljubljana to Bled or the coast of Koper and Portorož, travelling the country by road is an essential part of the experience, especially if you want to combine nature, culture and the sea in one trip.

Frequently asked questions about renting a car in Slovenia
Do I need a credit card to rent a car in Slovenia?
Not always. Some of our suppliers require a physical credit card in the name of the main driver to rent a car at Slovenia, but many others accept a debit card! However, it must always be physical and in the name of the main driver. Check the terms and conditions of each offer before renting your car at Slovenia, to make sure.
What is included in the car hire price in Slovenia?
The price shown on Pepecar includes the items detailed in the Supplier Conditions displayed during the booking process.
It normally includes:
- Vehicle hire for the selected period.
- Compulsory basic insurance (with excess, unless otherwise stated).
- Mileage according to the contracted rate.
- Mandatory taxes and fees.
Each vehicle may have different conditions, so it is important to always review the ‘Rental Conditions’ section before confirming your booking.
What is Pepecar's cancellation policy for cheap car hire in Slovenia?

Is Pepecar cheaper than renting directly from a supplier?
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. It depends on the supplier, the location, the dates, when you make the booking and how far in advance, and ultimately on the prices set by the suppliers compared to those set by Pepecar for each occasion. Pepecar is not restricted by suppliers when setting its own prices; we set our own rates.
