  • What are the criteria to hire a car in Montpellier?

    Hiring a car in Montpellier makes it easy to explore the medieval city and the Mediterranean coast nearby, but make sure you meet all the requirements before booking.

A credit or debit card from an internationally recognised credit card company must be presented when collecting your Montpellier car hire.
