What kind of Dollar rental car should I get for my trip to Bordeaux?

That depends on how many people you are traveling with and what you'll be doing when you visit Bordeaux. Economy or compact vehicles are ideal for short drives and are easier to park. If you are traveling with colleagues or family, then a mid-size vehicle or SUV will have enough room for all of you and offer a more comfortable ride on longer trips. Those looking for a bit of extravagance on their Bordeaux trip can choose a higher-end car model like a Mercedes C-Class or Audi A4 or similar.

Does France require car insurance?

In France you do need to have insurance before you rent from Dollar. Many major credit cards (American Express, Visa, MasterCard and Discover) generally provide some coverage.

Do I have to full up the tank before I take my car back to Dollar?

We recommend a full tank policy. You receive the car with a full tank, and you will want to refuel up to the amount you picked the car up with. For a cheaper rate, it is best to find a gas station before you bring it back to Dollar.
