KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Reims
- When you get a car hire in Reims, you will enjoy additional flexibility compared to if you travelled by public transport, such as on buses or trains. This is due to the fact that you are able to leave whenever you wish, rather than waiting on bus and train schedules. For instance, if you want to go to Jonchery-sur-Vesle, you can get there in about 20 minutes by car. The same journey by train takes in excess of 30 minutes, and you would also have to rely on the train timetable to make the trip.
- Paris Vatry Airport (XCR) is a nearby airport to Reims and offers a range of car hire companies, such as Avis, so you’ll be able to find a car with ease. To find the Avis branch, you can exit the small terminal into the car park, where you will see the office. The office is generally open from 08:30 to 10:30 and 16:00 to 18:00 every day of the week except for Sundays, when it’s closed.
- When you get a car hire in Reims, you will notice that the city is very popular with tourists. The centre is very busy, especially during the summer, with people often crossing the road in areas that are not designated pedestrian crossings. You should, therefore, remain vigilant when you’re driving through the city centre. Cycling is also a popular sport in France, with Reims being no exception. So whenever you are driving in the city, it’s important that you regularly check your mirrors for cyclists, especially when turning.
- When you get your Reims car hire, you will see that driving in the centre of the city can be difficult due to how busy it is. This is because some of the roads are narrow, which can make it hard if you’re in a new car in unfamiliar surroundings. If you want to stay off the road when it’s busier, then you should stay clear of rush hour. This is usually from 07:00 to 9:00 and 17:00 to 19:00, when many locals are travelling to and from work. A particularly busy road is Boulevard Louis-Roederer, which is one of the main streets in the city. It’s recommended that you find another route that doesn’t incorporate this road if you are trying to avoid traffic.
- Book your car hire in Reims at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
