Thank you for visiting the Discover France Travel Center's Car Rental Department! We are pleased to offer you a wide selection of makes and models, through our affiliation with Auto Europe — a leader in worldwide auto leasing and rentals for over 47 years.

If you were thinking of traveling with family or a few friends by train, consider this: The cost of a car rental will — in most instances — be cheaper than buying FrancePass or EurailPass tickets for your group. You will also enjoy far greater flexibility in scheduling your itineraries and choosing out-of-the-way destinations — if you're so inclined. Feel like taking a walk off the beaten path? Just stash your gear in the trunk, lock it up, and go where you please. Rail travel can't match the freedom and convenience of driving your own car!
