AJACCIO CAR HIRE REVIEWS
Car hire reviews in Ajaccio
Idyllically set between a group of wooded hills and the sparkling blue Mediterranean Sea, Ajaccio is the proud capital of the French island of Corsica. Conquered by the Greeks, Romans and Arabs over the centuries, it is surrounded by quaint little fishing villages and some of the best beaches in the whole of France. The country's most famous son, Napoleon Bonaparte, was born in this bustling city in 1769 and the great man is widely honoured with statues, place names and an excellent museum located in the house where he grew up - Le Maison Bonaparte. The Old Town is dominated by the city's magnificent 16th-century cathedral (Napoleon was baptised there in 1771) which features seven side chapels and a large pipe organ built in 1849. Ajaccio has many other interesting attractions, most notably the Musee Fesch famous for its 14th- to 19th-century Italian art collection (featuring works by Titian, Raphael and Botticelli) amassed by Napoleon's uncle, Cardinal Fesch. With a car hire in Ajaccio you'll be able to reach every part of the island and see all the main tourist sights, such as the prehistoric settlement of Filitosa (mostly Bronze Age) where visitors can enjoy the spectacle of its standing stones and on-site museum. The beautiful medieval fortified town of Bonifacio is another of the island's main highlights and can be reached from Ajaccio by car in a couple of hours.

" Being a new Renault Scenic it took a while to change the dashboard and sat nav language to English as all the instructions were in French! After that it was excellent. "
" The car was superb. Because we arrived at night we couldn't inspect the car for damage, so was advised to check it next day. Any damage to be photographed the next morning. On inspection I found large scratches on the rear nearside. I took the photograph as instructed and emailed them to europcar but despite three attempts to ask for an acknowledgement had no reply. This was worrying as it was important that they had received them. However, when I returned the car and showed the photos, this was accepted. "

" Wrong car, engine problems. Both ignored by the dealership. "
" I booked a VW Golf. On arrival I was given a 1.2L Peugeot 2008. When I pointed this out I was told this was in the same class. No way can a Golf and a 2008 ever be classed as even remotely similar. We drove away with it anyway. After a few miles we noticed the car was making a dreadful noise from the transmission Either a gear issue or clutch. Called garage, took the car back, only to be told it was fine. It was not. We worried the car was going to pack up the whole holiday. It is January, the car lot was full of cars, an alternative could easily have been offered. "

" See above. Insurance is a big issue. "
" I took insurance out when I booked the rental plus the excess insurance. Unfortunately I damaged the right side of the car. What was a real shock was the £1121.36 that was taken off me. It was not made clear that this could happen. If I had taken out an extra policy with Eurocar, I would have thought I would have been covered. "
