Provence has a great deal to offer those who are traveling here for their leisure. The region runs a long way across the southern coast of France. While there are public transportation options within the area, you will want to secure a rental vehicle for your journey to ensure you are able to reach destinations that may be off the beaten path. In fact, these locations may be the most desirable sites. What’s more, having a vehicle rental for the duration of your trip will give you the liberty to navigate the area at whatever pace you wish. It may also give you greater opportunity to revise your travel plans when new ideas come to mind.

With so much to look at while you’re traveling throughout Provence, you’ll want to make a point to keep your focus on the road. The varying terrain as well as the abundance of lavender fields, vineyards, coastal views, valleys, and gorges make for spectacular sights, so if your goal is to take them in, allot more time for your drive so that you can make stops along the way. Other motorists will thank you for this consideration. When navigating any cities, you’d be wise to do some research in advance; not all cities allow vehicles in the city centers, and, in those that do, you might find that the traffic patterns are an array of one-way streets.

The ability to rent a vehicle in France depends on a few variables that are typically dictated by the rental car agency. While some rental car companies may require that you are at least 21 years old to secure a car, others may require that you are at least 25 years old. What’s more, some rental agencies may have a rule that states that you must have had a valid license for at least a year prior to your rental period beginning.
