KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Tours
- When you get a car hire in Tours, you will get more flexibility with your journeys than if you opt for alternative modes of transport such as taxis, buses or trains. This is because you can take your Tours car hire to many locations at the click of your fingers and you don’t have to work your plans around public transport schedules. For example, if you want to drive to the riverside town of Saumur it takes about 50min in your car and you can leave whenever you want. Whereas if you’re completing the journey with public transport it will take over 1 hour and you’ll have to stick to the train timetable.
- Tours Val de Loire Airport (TUF) has lots of car hire companies for you to pick from, such as Avis and Europcar, so you will find it easy to get a vehicle for your trip. These two car hire agencies are also easy for you to find upon arrival. They are located in the car park that is directly in front of the terminal building. The offices are also open to conveniently account for flight arrival times too.
- When you get a car hire in Tours you will see that the town is very popular with both students and tourists. The centre can get very busy during term time and also the summer, with people crossing the road in locations that aren’t official pedestrian crossings. For this reason it’s important you stay alert when driving your Tours car hire through the town. Tours also has lots of cycle paths, with the Loire Valley Cycle Route going through it. Not all cyclists will be on the cycle paths though, so it’s important you check your mirrors before making a turn.
- When you get your Tours car hire you will find that driving in the centre comes with its difficulties. This is because the roads are narrow and busy during peak times, which can be challenging when you’re in a new car and unfamiliar surroundings. Rush hour is also a time to avoid being on the road, with traffic tending to be busier from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. One road that can get very busy during these times is Quai Paul Bert, so if possible you should try and find an alternative road to travel on.
- Book your rental car in Tours at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Economy rental cars in Tours are around 63% cheaper than other car types, on average
