Car rental at Marseille Airport

You will need to provide your original valid driver’s license, which needs to be a full license that you have had for at least one year. Some Marseille Airport car hire companies will also request a second form of photo identification such as your passport. Insurance is required, which can either be organised with the rental company or you will need to provide proof of your own coverage. A credit card in your name will need to be provided for full costs of your rental, and any additional nominated drivers will need to provide their license with the same requirements as well.

There is a designated parking area just outside of the airport for rental cars and the rental company offices. Once you exit Marseille Airport, you will see this car park directly in front of you, and the offices are clearly signed. These offices are easily accessible by simply crossing the walkway to the car park. There are signs within the airport to direct you towards the right area, and helpful staff if you need assistance.

If you are planning to stick to the city and main roads between other cities, a compact vehicle will cover your needs, and make city driving easier as those roads are narrow and can get busy, and parking can be difficult. If however you are exploring more of the countryside and nature, or traveling in a bigger group or family and need the extra space or comfort, an SUV might be a better choice for your party. Driving the motorways in France is generally very easy as well as more rural areas, though if you plan on doing plenty of city driving, a smaller vehicle with a navigation system is likely to be more comfortable while you explore unfamiliar roads.
