  • The best time to visit the city is during the spring (April to June) and fall (September to October). If you are visiting during this time, book your deal at least 2-3 weeks before your trip.

  • When you go to pick up your self drive rental car in Paris, the supplier may ask you for a credit card in the name of the main driver to hold a refundable security deposit. Ensure that you carry a valid one along with other documents that are mentioned in your Rental Confirmation Voucher for a smooth pick-up process.
