KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Épernay

  • Car hire in Épernay offers convenience and the independence to explore the city at your own pace and even create your itinerary. Using a hire car lets you focus your travel experience according to your preference. Épernay is known for its champagne production; therefore, using a hire car lets you visit various champagne houses and vineyards. With a hire car, you can easily visit attractions hardly accessible by public transport, including Montagne de Reims Natural Park, Hautvillers, Reims and Château-Thierry.
  • In Épernay, car hire services are available from Avis, Europcar and Hertz at Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG), about 140 km (87 miles) from Épernay, Orly Airport (ORY), about 165 km (102 miles) away, and Chalons-Vatry Airport (XCR), roughly 45 km (28 miles) away. Charles de Gaulle Airport's Épernay car hire companies are in Terminals 1 and 2. Terminal 1's counters are at the VAL shuttle station, accessible by shuttle buses from the Arrivals Terminal, while Terminal 2's counters are at sub-terminals 2A, 2B, 2C, 2E, 2F and 2G. Terminal 2's counters are within walking distance from arrivals. At Orly Airport, car hire in Épernay is available in the South Terminal's arrivals area, accessed by shuttle buses from the West Terminal.

Remember to carry essential documents, including a driving licence, passport or ID card and credit card for the hiring process.
  • You will encounter narrow streets and roundabouts when driving in Épernay; therefore, ensure you drive at low speed and be cautious when navigating such areas. When approaching roundabouts, ensure you give way to the vehicles already in the roundabout, and always appropriately indicate your exit.
  • Épernay experiences traffic congestion during work commute hours, roughly from 08:00 to 09:30 and from 17:00 to 19:00. The major roads that lead to the city centre, including Rue de la République, Avenue de Champagne and Boulevard de la Motte, are most affected by traffic during rush hours. Avoid using the major roads during peak hours to avoid traffic delays. Épernay is a significant tourist destination; therefore, expect traffic during peak tourist seasons. Épernay may also be congested during public holidays and festivals, including Habits de Lumières in mid-December, Fête des Vignerons every second August, and Fête de la Musique on the 21st of June each year.

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Épernay?

    Épernay features many narrow streets, especially in the city's and centre's older parts. Therefore, when booking car hire in Épernay, consider a compact or small-sized car, as that will enable you easily manoeuvre through the narrow streets and tight spaces, which may be challenging for larger vehicles. Épernay also has limited parking, especially near the city centre; therefore, a compact car will enable you to park in tight parking spaces.

  • What's the speed limit in Épernay?

    Typically, the speed limit in Épernay is 50 km/h (30 mph) in urban areas, 80 km/h (50 mph) on rural roads and 130 km/h (80 mph) on highways (or about 110 km/h (70 mph) during wet weather conditions). Pay attention to speed limit signs along the roads when driving around the city, and be prepared for changes in speed limits, particularly in school zones. Épernay has seed cameras in specific areas around the city to enforce speed limits; therefore, ensure you operate within the set speed limits to avoid fines.

Consider Avenue de Champagne, Rue Saint-Thibault, Rue de Savoyeux, residential areas and Rue du Général Leclerc for free parking. However, the free parking options may be limited, so you may consider paid car parks, including Parking Jean Chandon Moët, Parking de la Gare and Parking de l'Hôtel de Ville.
