Gironde Car Rental

Enterprise Car Rental Locations in Gironde

Gironde emerged as a department during the French Revolution and was named after a revolutionary group called the Girondists. It's renowned for its silver coast, which is Europe's surfing capital, but its charm doesn't end with the swells. Visiting Gironde without spending time at the prized Bordelais Vineyard is like visiting London without passing by Buckingham Palace. The department has its share of history, which is displayed at its many museums. The most beautiful of these is La Cite du Vin, which was designed by Anouk Legendre and Nicolas Desmazieres. The building itself will inspire you as much as the collections within. Gironde is a resort region decorated by rising mountain peaks and endless hills. If you're planning a road trip, you'll find two Enterprise Rent-A-Car branches, near Quai de Paludate and on Rue d'Armagnac.

Attractions In Gironde

Bordeaux is arguably Gironde's most spectacular region. Its riverfront 18th-century architecture will make you feel as though you've traveled back in time. If your credit card is begging to be used, it also has the longest shopping street in the nation, and while you're there, you'll be able to visit its many galleries and museums. The coastal town of Arcachon is home to some of Gironde's most celebrated attractions. The Dune de Pilat is Europe's largest sand dune, and as such, is the most visited destination in the area, receiving over a million travelers a year. The east of Gironde is its most obscure area, but that doesn't make it forgettable. Its historical center is home to a 13th-century bastide town and five Classical and Gothic castles.

Places To Visit Outside Gironde

The massive Perigord-Limousin Regional Nature Park is a short distance from Bordeaux. If you're arranging car rental in Gironde, you'll have the freedom to travel across both of its departments. It has as much historical heritage as it does natural beauty. La Rochelle's limestone facades and old-world seaports will give your holiday a surreal edge. If history inspires you, Montauban's many museums and ancient buildings deserve a visit.

Parking And Traffic Information In Gironde

France's many motorways make navigation effortless, but you will need to get used to driving on the right of the road. Parking laws change from day to day, with certain street parking only being legal every alternate day. You may not drive in bus lanes and must yield to pedestrians. Seatbelts are mandatory for all travelers, but children younger than 10 must be seated in the back. If you're traveling with a 4 to 10-year-old child, you'll need a booster seat. Most fines are payable on the spot, so don't forget your traveler's checks. Gas stations are usually open throughout the day and night, but you'll probably want to rent an economy or hybrid to bring those fuel costs down.
