Get your return journey for next to nothing, with our One Way offer. Return your car to a specific station and you get your car rental for only €1. Why? Our vehicles are often needed the next day in other cities, but relocating them is expensive. By bringing the car back to a specific destination, you’re doing us a huge favor. With 48 to 72 hours to complete the journey, there are several different routes across France - never more than a few hours’ drive. Choose the most convenient route for you.
In France, cars drive on the right. At junctions, you must give way to vehicles approaching from both directions.
