Hire a car in Toulouse with Hertz
Prepare to be surprised by France’s ‘Ville Rose’ or ‘Pink Town’. The nickname refers to the attractive rose-hued terracotta bricks used in many of Toulouse’s buildings, giving the capital of the Midi-Pyrenees region a unique charm.
You may also be surprised just how large Toulouse is. The city is the fourth biggest in France and spreads across 45 square miles on both banks of the River Garonne. Hiring a car in Toulouse is the easiest way to get around the area and explore the surrounding Midi-Pyrenees, which in turn is the largest region in France.
We’re well placed to help you into a rental car as quickly and efficiently as possible. You’ll find we’ve got car hire pick-up points right in the heart of Toulouse and in the busiest commercial areas on the outskirts. Of course we also have offices at the city’s airport and the main rail station.
