Come prepared and save time at pick-up. You'll generally need your physical driver's licence (no electronic copies) plus another photo ID. Also bring a credit card that can cover the deposit. If extra requirements apply, your booking will list them.
Driving in France might take some adjustment for first-time visitors. Be aware that traffic travels on the right side of the road.
Stay within the local speed limits. Usually that's around 45kph in urban areas and 125kph or so on highways, unless signed otherwise.
The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit in France is 0.05%. Since alcohol's effects vary from person to person, the best way to be sure you're safe to drive is not to drink at all.
Aim to travel outside heavy traffic periods for a smoother run. 8am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.
You'll be using the euro (EUR) on your trip here. In addition to your debit and credit cards, consider taking some cash for minor purchases.
