It’s best to leave your hire car in a car park than on the roads. It may not be in one piece when you get back.
car hire in strasbourg
Castles, cathedrals and forests – you’ll feel like you’re in a fairytale. Hire a car, not a horse though – it’s faster.
Take a drive to the Cathedral. It’s ridiculously tall and apparently haunted. Climb the spiral staircase to the top and you’ll see the entire city.
Need more of a thrill? Europa Park has thrills and spills for all the family. It’s only an hour’s drive from Strasbourg.

Take the car to Carcassonne. A medieval castle dominates the Old City. Leave your car in the lower city and tackle the castle on foot.

car hire in marseille
Marseille. A rich, historical port in southern France. It’s also the perfect base to hire a car and discover the region on Provence.
Drive down to the Old Harbour and catch a boat out to Chateau d’If. The Count of Monte Cristo stayed in the prison for 12 years, give it an hour before you catch the boat back.
It’s a fair old drive but the Pont du Gard is well worth it. You can even go for a swim beneath the arches.
top driving tip
A new tramway system in the city centre could mean your Sat Nav will be out of date.

No, not the TV programme. Bergerac is a town in the Dordognes. Hire a car and get lost. It's the best way to explore the region.
Like caves? You’ll love the Font-de-Gaume. It’s about a 30-minute drive from Bergerac.
Prefer to stay above ground? The Chateau de Bonaguil is only a short drive. Try and catch the free firework display in summer.

Don’t cross a solid white line. You’ll be hit with an 'on-the-spot' fine.
car hire in corsica
Corsica. It’s not all about the beach. Hire a car – it’s the best way to explore the island. Just don’t forget the map.
History your thing? It’s a short drive up to the Bonifacio Citadel. Watch your step it’s a sheer drop down.
Corsica’s main beaches will be packed. Take the hire car for a spin and discover hidden bays instead.
top driving tip
A smaller car will handle the narrow, mountainous roads better than a larger model.
