We would like to rent a car in Frankfurt and drive to Bamberg, Germany. I am 85 years old. Is there an age restriction on renting cars to seniors?

It will probably depend on the rental company. I took a look at Turo, but they don't operate in Germany. I also looked ago AutoEurope.com, which I think is a consolidator (or is that EuropeCar? I can never remember), and it said fees apply for 70+. Give it a whirl!

Have you ever driven in Germany before? Do you really want to do this? Don't drive at night. Parking spaces are tiny. Ever parked in a Parking Garage? You always need to be looking behind on the Autobahn. Familiarize yourself with signs and laws. Accident and Health Insurance? Sorry, but my 93-year-old father still drives in the US, but I drive when I visit. Too many white-knuckle moments. Be safe and consider the safety of others. Parking in Bamburg requires an App, or Park and Ride unless you have parking at your destination.
