Car rental
Car rental in Paris
Paris rewards travellers who leave the Métro behind — Versailles, Champagne day trips and late CDG/Orly arrivals are easier with a booked car. CarRental Pro compares agencies serving Charles de Gaulle, Orly and city desks so you can lock a category before you land.
What to know before you rent
CDG is about 30 km north-east of the centre; Orly is closer for the south. Peak queues hit Monday mornings and Sunday evenings — pre-booking on CarRental Pro saves counter time.
Compact cars suit dense arrondissements; automatics are popular with visitors. Watch Crit'Air stickers and low-emission zones before driving into central Paris.
Compare excess, mileage and one-way fees if you might drop in Lyon, Nice or Belgium. CarRental Pro map filters help you shortlist desks near your hotel.

Travel & rental tips
- Book CDG or Orly at least 48 h ahead in July–August and around Fashion Week.
- Hotel parking in central Paris is scarce — ask the agency about suburban pick-up.
- Bring an international permit if your licence is not EU-format.
