Car Rental in München

Munich Riem is located in eastern Munich, approximately 10 km from the city center, on the site of the former airport which has been transformed into Messestadt Riem with Munich's large exhibition center. With 1 rental company on site, the selection is focused but the location is excellent if you're heading to trade shows or onward toward Salzburg (150 km).

Riemer Park, a 200-hectare green space, dominates the southern part of the neighborhood and offers cycling paths and lake swimming in summer.
