Hire a car in Epernay with Hertz
Car hire in Epernay, a commune in the Marne department of northern France, enables you to access great swathes of northern France. Epernay is located 13km northeast of Paris, and in itself is the home of champagne production. Just visit our Epernay branch to organise everything quickly and easily. Hiring a car in Epernay allows you to travel further afield than the town itself, which is not too aesthetically appealing - left heavily pockmarked after being bombed during the war, ugly 6s redevelopment took over. However, Moët & Chandon, Mercier and De Castellane are all based here and you can take tours, learning about the houses' histories and production processes.
Hiring a car in Epernay allows you to access the city of Reims, a city in the Champagne-Ardenne region, in only 33 minutes. Rent a car in Epernay and this is a great day out. Reims' 13th century cathedral, Notre Dame, was badly damaged by shelling in the war. Investment and restoration (part-funded by the Rockefeller foundation) meant that the cathedral reopened in 1938. 25 Kings of France have been crowned within the walls of this cathedral. Rent a car in Epernay and take in the breath taking views as you drive around the vineyards used in Champagne production.
