Our Nice Airport car rental desks can be easily reached from either Terminals 1 or 2. If you are meeting us at Terminal 1, head towards Gates A1 and A2 and find us to the right of the information desk. Alternatively, if you are landing at Terminal 2, our team will meet you between Gates A2 and A3. From here, your vehicle can be collected from the Car Rental Centre behind the P5 car parking zone near to Terminal 2.

From Nice, climb the winding roads up to the Col de Turini in the Alps, or opt for a shorter hop to the medieval village of Gourdon, where magnificent views of the Mediterranean coast can be had.
