Hire a car in Perigueux with Hertz
Perigueux is a picturesque town in Dordogne, South-West France. Set in the Trelissac Hills, Perigeuex is an ideal place from which to explore the Dordogne, or simply to meander around the city's wonderfully eclectic but profoundly old-world architecture. The Cathedral St Front is one of the most ornate in France due to its Byzantine domes, which loom over a city with a seemingly unlimited reserve of restaurants. Car hire in Perigeuex means that you can explore the wider Dordogne area with towns likes Les Eyzies-de-Tayac-Sireuil and Castelnaud-la-Chapelle within easy driving distance. Hiring a car in Perigeuex is available from the town itself, Bergerac Dordogne Airport, Bordeaux Airport, and locations across the region.
Perigeuex is a strikingly pretty town in the Dordogne. The Cathedral St Front beautifully interrupts the view over the surrounding Trelissac Hills with its Byzantine Domes. To add architectural diversity, we have the Vesunna Gallo-Roman Museum which along with the amphitheatre point to an illustrious Roman past. The Dordogne cries out to be explored and towns like Les Eyzies-de-Tayac-Sireuil are within driving distance if your hiring a car in Pergeuex; here you'll find the Cave of Font-de-Gaume and its moving prehistoric art - only 45km via the D710/D47. The Castelnaud-la-Chapelle area is also worthy of a visit for the chateaus. Rent a car in Perigeuex and you'll find you're in a convenient position just off the A89.
