Whether your trip is just a few days away, during the May to October high season, or even in the winter, there are two powerful reasons to book your car now…

• Price. Our 34 years in this business tell us that, over the next month, Summer and Fall rental car rates will almost certainly increase. Your best strategy is to confirm with payment now to protect against rate increases. What if rates drop? Easy. With Gemut.com you can cancel for a full refund for any reason, up to 48 hours prior to pick up. So, if rates drop, you simply cancel and rebook at the lower price. Either way, by booking now you guarantee the best deal.

• Availability. If you require a certain vehicle category, book it now. The prime example is the passenger van, a comfortable option for a group of five, but the ONLY option if your party is 6 to 9 persons who want to ride together. Vans in Europe are in short supply and it’s driving up their prices. Vans will sell-out in the major cities of Italy, France, Germany, Switzerland, Ireland, Spain, Portugal, and the UK.

Since the final issue was published in February of 2014, customers frequently tell us how much they miss Gemütlichkeit - The Travel Letter for Germany, Austria, Switzerland and New Europe. Most new customers are not aware that Gemut.com started as a direct-mail, monthly newsletter.

At its peak Gemütlichkeit had over 5,000 monthly subscribers. The newsletter was published for 27 years, from 1987 to 2014. Recently, we have decided to share some of that history here.

Today we venture back to 1993 when Gemut Contributors Roger Holliday and Claudia Fischer visited and reported on Rothenburg ob der Tauber. The photos included were taken by Bob in 2018.

Have you visited Rothenburg? Tell us about it below.

Here is a link to the Full issue from July 1993:

Caveat: The information provided is from 1993 and may not be accurate today. It is provided for the purpose of entertainment only.

Breaking News: Is Kayak mimicking our name("gemut com" vs. gemut.com) to steal car rental clients? Maybe...

A search for Gemut.com on Youtube led to the discovery of some very troubling results.

After querying Gemut.com at Youtube.com we find sponsored ads for "Gemut com" that link the user to various, generically named car rental booking engines. Somebody, it seems, is using Gemut.com's name-recognition and stellar reputation to hijack our car rental customers.

It gets REALLY UGLY is when you enter search terms in to the generic booking engine and your browser navigates to www.Kayak.com.

This is devastating to our small, family operation. Having a massive travel corporation seemingly undermining our online credibility and stealing clients, for an unknown period of time, is infuriating.

Below you can see screenshots of the process and I've included a video to show the full context:
