BERGERAC CAR HIRE REVIEWS
Car hire reviews in Bergerac
Nestling on the northern banks of the Dordogne River, Bergerac is a charming medieval city less than an hour's drive inland from Bordeaux. The ideal gateway to the Dordogne region of south-west France, visitors will find plenty to do in and around the city before heading off into the surrounding region with their car hire in Bergerac. Around Place Pelissiere are a number of lovely medieval streets with half-timbered houses and lots of other period architecture to admire. The hub of the city is La Place Pelissiere, a lovely old square lined with cafés, wine bars and irresistible eateries serving delicious Dordogne cuisine. The 19th-century neo-Gothic church nearby is famed for its stained-glass windows and 80-metre-high steeple. Next on the must-do list is a leisurely cruise along the Dordogne on a gabares, one of the region’s traditional flat-bottomed barges specially adapted for modern tourism. Bergerac’s wine-making tradition dates right back to the 2nd century, so it's no surprise to find one of the city's most popular attractions - the Maison des Vins de Bergerac - located right in the heart of the old town. Here visitors can find out all about the local wines in a magnificent 17th-century mansion (built around the historic Récollets Monks Cloister) through informative tastings and the innovative vinothèque wine discovery area. Equally fascinating is the National Tobacco Museum which portrays the 3,000-year history of this plant, from its Amerindian origins up to the present day, with a strong focus on local production. A land of centuries-old wine estates and scenic driving routes, the Dordogne is one of the most bucolic corners of France and well worth exploring with your Auto Europe car rental. You can visit the wine-makers and taste some of Bergerac's best wines, such as Pecharmant, Monbazillac and Saussignac before enjoying a 20-minute drive south towards Ribagnac to see the delightful Château de Bridoire, a turreted 12th-century castle that's been lovingly restored to how it looked in the Middle Ages.

( I'd never seen a car without a handbrake lever!) We ended up with a big SUV rather than the small hatchback we'd ordered (at no extra cost) My credit card was "blocked" rather than debited for the deposit, so no bank charges were incurred.
