Renting a car in Europe

by Beausoleil

We usually lease a car and if you are going for 21 days or longer, consider this. For shorter periods, you'll need to rent so here is my rental information below:Some rental companies won't allow drivers over age 70 or 72. Check age requirements before you rent. There are some minimum age requirements too. It is always good to ask . . . or read the fine print. Check the bottom line for one company that does rent to over-70 folks.You will pay more for an automatic but if you order ahead of time, you will have no trouble getting it. We always use an automatic. Any rental is cheaper if you order ahead anyway. You will also want to make sure you can take the car into all the countries you plan to visit. Some countries have higher accident rates and some rental companies won't allow their cars into those countries. I suppose there are licensing agreements too. Whatever the cause, you can't...

Lease a car in Europe

by Beausoleil

If you are using the car for 21 or more days, you should consider the buy-back (lease) program. We always do this and it is wonderful. You get the brand new car of your choice. We use the Peugeot 207 automatic for ourselves and also when we have one of our daughters with us. Four people would need the 307 or 407.You have full insurance coverage, 24-hour roadside assistance and a new car. We always pick up and drop off in France so we don't have to pay extra charges but you can get the car nearly anyplace in Europe.On our last trip someone managed to back into our parked car and put a huge dent in one side. We told the Peugeot folks when we returned the car and they said not to worry about it. We were impressed.We have used http://www.autofrance.net/ the last few times but AutoEurope.com and Kemwel.com also have the Open Europe Lease Program with Peugeot.Renault has a similar program but...

Driving in Europe

by adema29

Being a fan of driving and making from this a kind of “cliché” I have to say few words about this touristic attraction, isn’t it?I have had the opportunity to drive thousands of kilometers in Norway, Spain, France, Romania, Hungary, Austria Bulgaria, Greece and less in Turkey, Germany, and Switzerland. I am still working on this :) and I have already some opinions about driving in general.Loving the adrenaline as all the “Latinos”, probably, I feel the best driving old and small cars. In big 4x4s you cannot really feel the pleasure of driving. I remember about our first car, a Romanian Oltcit (... copied Citroen Visa) in which everything was shaking and looking in the mirror at 115 km/hrs. was useless as it was moving badly.The other car I love is a small Renault Clio (1999 model) bought in Norway with a huge amount of money (In Norway all the cars are double priced than in rest of...

Travel around Europe-KLM

by adema29

I found the most convenient to fly… and I’m flying as often as I can, here and there and most of the time with KLM. It is funny that I have started to recognize faces in KLM’s personnel.It is not a 5 stars operator but, as far as I can see it they are always serious and I feel somehow at home in Schiphol and in all the KLM’s flights.Even seeing the special KLM’s blue, my toes start itching and my mind starts flying to the exotic islands somewhere in Caribe. Congratulation KLM and keep us dreaming and flying safe.

transport around France

by gwened

well i am biase,the local take is to do just France for the time you have ::)the car is the best way to travel France for sure, done that, and more ,the car is best. In France you wont have drop off charges either,one country one car.www.autoeurope.comwww.kemwel.comare good brokers for years doing it, then you know the rest.Spent a lifetime in Paris, no just kidding, maybe if you include Versailles you need the at least 7 days in Paris area. March weather is cool but nice, great way to travel by car.You can start in Paris and then hire the car from an outside agency not at airport you pay more, do it by porte d'Orleans avis,sixt, europcar ,national, ada are all there or wait until Paris and when do Versailles rent it there at any train station.the eurostar coming from London to Paris is fine, but do get around the city and then rent the car once out to see the countryside. Paris and...

rail tickets purchased in Russia

European „liquid“ harrassment when flying

by Trekki

I'll double this one and also place it under "transport". Be fair to the system and if, only rate it once.A very serious word for travellers who fly into Europe from a non-EU country and change planes in a European country; e.g. coming from Singapore, change planes in Frankfurt to go to anywhere (EU and non-EU).Since November 2006, Europe is hysterial about the liquids which are being carried in hand luggage. Well, this is the case in other countries are as well, but Europe topped it with a speciality about the real liquids, like alcohol and also perfumes etc. Apart from the max. 50 ml of liquids like tootpaste, cream etc, which should be packed into a sealable transparent bag (e.g. the bags we use for freezing), you are not allowed to take any liquid past security. This includes water. You cannot take water, even not a 1 l sealed water bottle, across security. You can buy a water bottle...
