We opted to hire and travel to the alpes due to the cost of a coach or private taxi. This was the best decision I made as the trip was a simple stress free drive with the family (some tolls roads on route but all take card payments).

Relatively easy to collect the car, a short bus ride from the airport, a bit of waiting around as per usual but there was a nice waiting area for the children. Probably didn’t need to be up-sold ski socks as there hadn’t been any recent snow or any forecast for the week we had the car, we took them anyway but probably wouldn’t bother next time. Great price rental car. Friendly and helpful driver

Happy DiscoverCars customer from Canada
Had a mishap with my rental while parked in a lot. Wasn’t even in the car at the time. Big shout out to MAX from DiscoverCars who finalized the claim in record time. Would highly recommend DiscoverCars to anyone renting. Mine was a 2 month rental and I will definitely return to them again next year. Thanks Max.

Very happy with the experience. I appreciated the transparency of all costs and the clear explanation of the insurance, which was my main focus since we’ll be spending a lot of time on the road. The deal was also the best across all the platforms I checked. Booking was quick and easy. I’d definitely recommend it.
