KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Le Havre

  • Le Havre has a well-connected railway network, but driving Le Havre car rentals is the best way to explore the city. Trams and buses make local stops at designated stations, so it's a slow journey; in addition, public transportation has fixed schedules, which could affect your traveling plans. When driving a rental car, you can go to Plage Dieppe, which is about 116 km (72 miles) northeast of the city.
  • When visiting Le Havre, you'll likely land at Paris Beauvais-Tille Airport (BVA). You can choose a car from several car-rental agencies, including SIXT, Keddy By Europcar, Thrifty, and Dollar. Most of these agencies are located at Terminal 1 or Terminal 2, so there's no need for a shuttle bus. You can also land at Le Havre - Octeville Airport (LEH). Car-rental agencies are on-site near the terminal. Although there's a wide selection of vehicles at the car-rental agencies, consider booking earlier to avoid waiting lines at the airport.
  • Even though cyclists have a well-marked path, you should be careful when driving car rentals in Le Havre because the city has many cyclists. Some cyclists ignore traffic rules and pose a danger to themselves and drivers. Therefore, keep your eyes on the road and avoid distractions like cell-phone use while you're driving. If you're planning to drive on the A29 highway that links Le Havre to other cities, be aware that the toll stations accept cash, debit, or credit cards as payment.
  • Snow falls about 10 times per month during winters in Le Havre. Driving car rentals in Le Havre during winter can be tricky. The roads might be covered in snow, making them slippery, and you don't want your vehicle to veer off the road! The best way to ensure a comfortable drive is to rent a car with winter tires. Even so, the best way to remain safe is by driving slowly, maintaining a safe distance between vehicles, and keeping the headlights on to increase visibility.
  • 25% of our users found rental cars in Le Havre for C$ 48 or less
  • Book your rental car in Le Havre at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Verified travelerAug. 2023
If arriving on a cruise ship, as we did, I would probably find a rental agency at the airport. In any case be sure to think about getting back your next transportation.

On dual carriageways, the required speed is 110 km/h (70 mph). If you're driving within built-up areas, such as residential communities, construction zones, and school zones, don't exceed 50 km/h (30 mph). Outside built-up areas, including A and B highways, the maximum speed limit is 80 km/h (50 mph). If you're unfamiliar with the roads, follow the speed-limit signs posted in various city zones. Violating speed rules can lead to license suspension.

  • Where are the best places to park in Le Havre?

    You can find free and cheap spacious parking lots in the city. Parking lots at Boulevard Albert 1er, Boulevard Clemenceau, and the CNH swimming pool are free. On-street parking is free on Sundays and holidays.

The maximum parking allowed is two hours. If you park in lots with unlimited parking, such as Oceane, Quai de la Reunion, and Les bains des docks, the fees are around €1.20 ($1.32) per hour for the first two hours and about €0.40 ($0.44) per hour each additional hour.

I would have liked to know that the Hertz store in Le Havre was closing early on December 31st. I would have liked more help when I requested road side service from Hertz. I was unaware that I would be charged a 130 Euros for an intercity fee on top of the price I was quoted during the online reservation.

Ridiculous opening times! Useless for business use (lunch break 12-14, morning opening at 9:00 , NO possibility to drop off car before agency opens. No possibility to drop off car at Octeville airport, not even for a fee. It seems that customer service is completely alien concept. Staff friendly enough but don’t really care.

7.6 Good

Aug. 2018

KAYAK

Pros:

The rental agency was right across from the train station. The car was ready and the agent was readily available. The car ran great! We had a close connection with our next train and the agent got our car where it needed to go.

Cons:

We added gas and GPS to our bill which doubled our cost. My Google Maps did a better job than GPS. Could have done without it and saved a lot of $.

6.4 Okay

The company was closed at our reserved pickup time. When we called a near by location they gave cancelled our reservation because they could contact me by phone… probably because I was on the plane at that time.
