Country restrictions for rental cars in Germany

Would like to rent a car in Munich and drive outside Germany including Slovenia and Czech Republic. They appear to be zone 2 countries which adds limitations. Where can I find the limitations and costs for Sixt rental company in English? Is it just the cross boarder fee? Each rental company in Germany seems to have different rules, restrictions and fees. My German is not sufficient to understand the rules in German.

Thanks

ssgieseke, just an FYI, before you rent from Sixt, you might want to look at this thread. I would suggest renting from AutoEurope as you have more protection through them. https://community.ricksteves.com/travel-forum/general-europe/rental-car-nightmare-continues

ETA: And for what it's worth, Mark and Mr. E, I alternate between three different German translating apps (Google, Deepl and Reverso, plus Leo, which is great for individual words) and haven't found a lot of difference between any of them. They're all decent translators and I think that any one would work for most translation needs.
