How is the land border crossing when driving a rented car between Balkan countries as a French citizen?

Upvote:2

I did this a few years ago, albeit as an American citizen (also visa-free to all of the countries you mentioned). The trick was finding a rental car company that would let me do it, but once I did that then there were no problems. You need to have the green card (insurance paperwork) that they give you with the rental car and show that at every border crossing along with your passport. The border crossings were all quick and easy.

The one catch is Kosovo, which doesn't accept the EU green card so you need to purchase auto insurance while you're there. It's something like 20 EUR for a week (more or less). There's also the catch of entering Serbia after you've entered Kosovo, but I see you've asked a separate question about that.
