Hire a car in Angouleme with Hertz

Angouleme is a city that has been occupied since prehistoric times, so it is no surprise that there is a wealth of history and culture to explore. It is known as the 'balcony of the southwest' due to its situation sitting on a high plateau that affords incredible views of the Charente River. For anyone in search of car hire in Angouleme, we have two branches located in the city, one at the railway station and another at the Route de Paris. Hiring a car in Angouleme is a fantastic way to get out and discover the scenic southwest of France.

Hiring a car in Angouleme is ideal for those who are visiting the city for the annual Angouleme International Comics Festival. The festival takes place at locations across the city over a period of four days in January. For those who decide to rent a car in Angouleme, it is also worth taking a drive out to the beautiful sandy beaches at Royan. The drive takes less than two hours and it will take you through the town of Cognac, which is famous for its brandy and is certainly worth a visit whilst you are in the region.
