There are a lot of car hire firms in France, including the main international car-rental companies.

Useful information:
To hire a car in France you must be at least 21 years old; some car-hire firms will not hire vehicles to drivers under 25. You must hold a valid drivers license (or driving licence) from your country of origin, and you must have held this licence for a year or more.
Drivers from other European Union countries and some other countries do not need an International Driving licence. However they may ned to show a passport or national identity card.
Tourists from Asia, Australia, Africa, and many parts of the Americas (including some US states) must also have an International Driving License. It is advisable to check with your local driving organisation, tour operator, or the local French embassy if you are in any doubt as to whether you need this document. An international driving license is a document you will need to obtain in your own country, before coming to France.
