FAQ

Do I need an International Driving Permit or will my French driver’s license be sufficient?
If the driver’s license is not written in English, you may need to carry an International Driving Permit along with your original driver’s license. Be sure to check the rental conditions to see for sure before booking.
Are any additional payments required to modify my reservation?
Discover Cars does not charge modification fees for changes to the reservation made at least 48 hours before picking up your car. But any changes, such as a change to the pickup or drop-off location, car group, rental period, or details of the driver, may affect the rental price and cause it to differ from the price to change.
Will I receive the exact same car as the one I booked?
Reservations are based on a category, not specific models (thus the wording “or similar”). The images shown are merely illustrative. In some cases, you may book a car for which the specific make and model is guaranteed. This will be indicated in the search results.
What coverage is included in the initial price?
Your rental rate includes basic coverage including a Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) theft protection, and third-party liability, though there will be an excess that you are liable for. You can purchase additional coverage to lower the excess or our Full Coverage which will reimburse you up to 3,000EUR for any part of the excess you are charged by the rental company.

Because we want to make sure each review listed here is left by a real customer, we don’t have an option to post a review here.
