If you want a true French all-around experience, a Renault Clio is a perfect choice, as it combines French manufacturing with the compactness city drivers need. The Renault Clio is also one of the most favored cars in France, so why not give it a go?
As speed limit signs are not always clearly marked, it is good to know the general limit regulations in France. Speed limits are given in kilometers per hour and in residential areas up to 50 km/h (31 mph) is permitted. Outside of town, 90 km/h (55 mph) is allowed and up to 130 km/h (80 mph) on highways.
Most of the major attractions within the city are easily reachable by foot, so parking at a P+R in the outskirts and taking a tram in can be a good option. P+Rs include the La Gardette, Buttinière, or Les Aubiers, all of which are located along a public tram. Street parking is also a possibility for travelers who want to be closer to the center, but there are limited possibilities and it is usually more expensive.

Some Bordeaux car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend being aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Bordeaux.
Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a non-deductible option to your Bordeaux car hire.
