KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Annecy

  • Car rentals in Annecy offer you the freedom to explore the city and all of its attractions at your own pace. With a car rental, you can easily visit popular attractions like Lake Annecy (Lac d'Annecy), Semnoz Mountain, Col de la Forclaz, and Gorges du Fier on your own schedule. Enjoy the flexibility of maximizing your time by efficiently visiting multiple destinations within a shorter period without relying on public transportation or the limitations of other transportation options. A car rental in Annecy provides convenience and the opportunity to create a personalized and immersive experience during your visit.
  • Annecy car rentals are conveniently available at Chambery Airport (CMF). You'll find three major rental companies operating at this airport, offering a range of options to suit your needs. The car rental counters are conveniently located in the airport car park, in close proximity to the terminal. This ensures a smooth and efficient process for completing your contract upon your arrival. Once you've completed the rental process, you can easily locate the rental vehicles parked just outside the terminal in the adjacent parking lots.
  • Before setting off in car rentals in Annecy, plan your route and familiarize yourself with the roads and directions. Consider using a GPS or navigation app to assist you during your journey. Annecy's old town features narrow streets and tight corners. Try to avoid driving during peak traffic hours, particularly in the morning and evening rush hours, to minimize delays and congestion. Annecy and its surrounding areas offer breathtaking scenery. Take advantage of the beautiful drives, such as along Lake Annecy or through the mountains, and take your time to appreciate the views. If you plan to drive on the major highways surrounding Annecy, be aware that some sections may have tolls. Have some cash or a card ready for toll payments.
  • If you're visiting Annecy during the winter ski season, weekends and holidays can be busy as skiers and snowboarders travel to and from the nearby ski resorts. Allow extra time for your journeys and be prepared for winter driving conditions. Annecy is a popular tourist destination, especially during the summer months. Expect increased traffic during weekends and holidays, as well as in areas near major attractions and the lake. Congestion will be most pronounced on roads like the A41, the D1508, and the D1201.

Cons:

Return at Annecy train station was complicated. Hard to find info about where exactly they were located. No info on line, nothing printed on the paperwork. Car return was underground parking inside the train station with no signage outside the train station as to Avis location or underground car park. Paperwork should have indicated as such.

Justin from the office was out standing both at renting time and during the rental period. Return to the street near the office on Sunday is difficult. Price was Abit high.

We really liked the car - it was an SUV (wow, challenging to drive in Europe). But for a 6 week trip, covering much distance, the size and comfort was excellent. We had excellent customer support at pickup and dropoff. We made a request that was very slightly out of company policy and they happily accommodated. Pickup and dropoff for us were at different locations. We are familiar with the different settings of European vs American car rental: the European experience in frequently cramped, confused (plenty of 'lost in translation), and harried. We did not experience that during pickup, but definitely and massively, at dropoff. These events always end up as fabulous travel stories - so, that's the bright side. :) We will be happy to use Sixt in the future.

Pros:

The car itself was great, clean, operationally sound and comfortable.

Cons:

No GPS or automatic transmission options, making for a very difficult trip through Europe. Additionally, the staff at the Hertz stations were extremely unhelpful. Really disappointed in the customer service. Tried to drop off the car at the Geneva airport in Switzerland. Turns out there are 2 locations, one on the French side and another on the Swiss side. They would not help us get from one to the other, leading to 2 hours of circling the airport. "Good luck" is all we got.
