A standard category B licence is enough - the first question people ask
You don't need any extra licence to drive a BLS minivan in Kraków - a standard category B licence, the same one used for a regular car, is enough. That's usually the first question people have when renting a multi-seat vehicle, so it's worth clearing up straight away. There are currently 2 vehicles available in this class, starting from 557 PLN per day.
In everyday searches, the same class of vehicle goes by two names - "minivan" and "van". At BLS it's one category: vehicles built for carrying a larger group of people and luggage at once. Most people land here in one of three situations. The first is an airport transfer from Balice for a whole family or group of friends, in one trip instead of two smaller cars. The second is a wedding, where a single vehicle moves guests between the church, the venue and the hotel. The third is a company or school trip, where beyond seat count, cargo space for equipment or group luggage matters just as much.
Toyota Proace and Hyundai Staria in Kraków
The BLS fleet in this class in Kraków includes the Toyota Proace and Hyundai Staria. The exact seat count and interior layout vary by the version available for your dates, so if you're booking for a wedding or a group transfer, it's best to check the details in the calculator above or confirm with a manager before booking - that's the only way to be sure the car fits exactly as many passengers as you're travelling with.
Mileage, deposit and driving abroad
The Base rate comes with a 250 km/day limit - more than enough for an airport transfer or driving around the city, tighter if you're planning a day trip outside Kraków and back. The Prime rate includes unlimited mileage from day one, regardless of how long you rent for. The deposit under Prime is noticeably lower than under Base - check the exact amount for your dates in the online calculator.
Book for 6 days and the 7th is free - the "6=7" mechanic applies across every rate and car class, so a multi-day group trip works out cheaper. Taking the minivan into the EU requires BLS's written consent in advance - it's best to confirm your route and terms before booking; full terms are on our rental terms page. The scope of extended protection under the Prime rate is covered under full coverage.
Pick-up is at Olszanicka Street in Kraków, and for airport transfers, delivery to Balice Airport is available - set the location and time in the booking form, which saves time when picking up a group straight off a flight.
If you need the minivan not just for one trip but on a regular basis - for standing company transfers or moving a team between locations - long-term rental and our corporate rental option with invoiced billing bring the rate down compared to a single booking.
