South of France

We looked previously at the cheap flights to the south of France. Unless you are staying in the heart of a large town or city, you are also going to need arrange car hire. Car hire comes in a bewildering range of prices and options, according to the size of your group and the level of luxury that you are looking for.

Typically prices will be higher in the summer. For a basic car you might expect to pay as little as 100-150 euros for a week out of season, but this can easily rise to 500 euros a week if you want a luxury vehicle in the middle of August.

If you really want to look the part there are also companies specialising in luxury car hire - fancy driving through Saint-Tropez in a flashy Porsche? Anything is possible if you have deep pockets!

For a search facility that scans almost all of the major suppliers see cheap French car rentals or simply use the search box below. It looks deceptively simple, but simply enter your arrival airport and it will show you an extensive range of available vehicles…and all to be booked directly with the major car-hire companies.
