KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Valbonne

  • You'll be very happy that you opted for car hire in Valbonne once you discover all the wonderful tourist attractions you can drive to without having to rely on public transport. You won't be tied to bus or train timetables and routes, and you'll avoid having to take expensive guided tours in areas where there isn't public transport. Take a drive to the arty village of Saint-Paul-de-Vence or pop over to world-famous Cannes. With a car of your own, you'll be free to do your own thing.
  • Arriving by air, you'll land at Nice Côte d'Azur Airport (NCE), which has great facilities for organising car hire in Valbonne. It's only about 26 km (16 miles) from the town – roughly a 25-minute drive. The various companies' kiosks are in the Arrivals area of Terminal 1, next to the Information Office, so you can't miss them. To collect your vehicle, walk to the Car Hire Centre next to Terminal 2. It's located at the back of Car Park P5. Once your visit is over, you can drop off your car at the same place.
  • Driving in the Valbonne region of Provence is very pleasurable. The main roads are good in and around the town, and there isn't too much traffic in the town centre. There are a few adjustments you need to make, coming from the UK, though. Most noticeably, you'll drive on the right side of the road instead of the left. The drink-driving limits are also lower, at 0.5g/litre of blood. Be careful if you're a new driver, however – if you've been driving for less than three years, the limit is only 0.2g/litre, and this is rigorously enforced.
  • Car hire in Valbonne won't present any difficulties when it comes to actually driving in the town. The main thing is to watch out for the many pedestrians in the central area and the old village, including tourists, as they always have right of way. Another thing to always remember, is that you must give way to vehicles coming from your right at roundabouts, or those that have already entered the circle.
  • Mini hire cars in Valbonne are around 56% cheaper than other car types, on average

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Valbonne?

    When making your Valbonne car hire choice, it's always best to go for more compact vehicles and not get more car than you need, for two reasons. First, the streets in the old village are relatively narrow, and second, it's easier to navigate around cyclists and pedestrians in a smaller vehicle. On the other hand, this is the Cote d'Azur after all, so there's nothing stopping you from spoiling yourself with a sports car or a convertible either. As the roads in the region are good, families can hire an MPV, in which everyone can sit higher up for better visibility.

  • What's the speed limit in Valbonne?

    Coming from Nice Airport, and travelling on all the motorways outside Valbonne while exploring the Cote d'Azur, you can drive at up to 110 km/h (about 68 mph). Once you get closer to the towns and villages, the speed limit drops to 70 km/h (about 43 mph). In the built-up areas of Valbonne itself, you're limited to 50 km/h (about 31 mph). Due to the large numbers of tourists, the police are really on the ball and won't hesitate to hand out spot fines, starting at €90 (£77.00), so take these limits seriously.

  • Where are the best places to park in Valbonne?

    You can find free parking for a duration of 2 hours in Valbonne at Valis Bona Valbonne, which is about a 5-minute walk from the town centre. Others are scattered around the various central neighbourhoods. They include the car parks at Médiathèque Valbonne and on Route des Dolines. These also offer the first 2 hours of parking for free. Various supermarkets also have free parking for customers, so you won’t have to pay for it if you're stopping for supplies.
