KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Pau

  • When visiting Pau, opting for Pau car rentals offers the advantage of independently discovering the city and its outskirts without being limited by the public transportation timetables. This is especially beneficial for reaching remote or less accessible locations such as the scenic Pyrenees Mountains and charming nearby villages. Having a car also allows easy access to attractions like Château de Pau and the Funiculaire de Pau, enhancing the overall travel experience and enabling convenient day trips to the picturesque countryside.
  • At Pau Pyrénées Airport (PUF), the rental car process is convenient and accessible. The airport features a single terminal building encompassing both arrival and departure areas. The rental car offices, including reputable companies like Hertz, Alamo, Easycar, and Auto Europa, are conveniently situated in the arrivals hall adjacent to the shops and restaurant. The rental cars are parked in a specially designated area within easy walking distance of the terminal, streamlining the pickup process. To get your rental car, simply visit the rental counters of your chosen company, select your vehicle, and embark on your business or holiday journey.
  • Driving car rentals in Pau requires understanding the local driving style, which tends to be relatively calm and relaxed. While there is a general adherence to traffic rules, some drivers might display occasional impatience. The city has a noticeable presence of bicycles, particularly in the city center, and pedestrians generally respect crosswalks. While trucks are present, they aren't overwhelmingly numerous. Standard vehicles on the road include compact cars and occasional public vehicles. Driving Pau car rentals can be enjoyable, provided drivers remain attentive to cyclists and pedestrians.
  • Although driving in Pau can be an enjoyable experience, it's essential to be aware of specific challenges. The city's calm and relaxed driving style is a positive aspect. Still, there are rush hours, notably from 8 am to 9:30 am and 5:30 pm to 7 pm, when traffic congestion can be an issue, particularly on roads like Avenue du Général Leclerc and Boulevard des Pyrénées. Additionally, while Pau's mild climate makes most seasons suitable for driving, rainy periods during the winter might result in slippery roads.

However, watching for variations and signage is crucial, as some areas might have lower limits, especially near schools or congested zones. The speed limit is 70 km/h (43 mph) when driving on larger roads and boulevards. It's essential to be cautious of speed cameras strategically placed to enforce speed limits and ensure road safety.

  • Where are the best places to park in Pau?

Public parking garages like Parking Clemenceau and Parking Bosquet provide secure options. Parking costs vary; metered parking can range from approximately €1 to €2 ( $1.20 to $2.40) per hour, while garages charge around €1 to €2 (about $1.20 to $2.40) for an hour and up to €15 ($18) for a full day.
