Will it be a Vintage Year for Visiting Bordeaux? Yes says Rhinocarhire.com

Think of Bordeaux and you think of vineyards and fine wine, but Bordeaux is also a region of great variety and with some unusual sights.

A decade or so ago, car travel in France was, in the majority, confined to those people using the cross channel ferries and staying in the Brittany and Normandy regions. With the advent of budget airlines people’s views changed and rather than face a long drive and a potentially rough channel crossing they began to fly to destinations across the country and hire a car in France. Bordeaux is one of the many places to benefit from changing attitudes and with prices for car hire Bordeaux starting from only £21 per day, costs are comparable with the ferry but without the hassle of the drive.

Rhino Car Hire has seen a year on year rise in bookings at car hire Bordeaux Airport because of this phenomenon which they expect to continue. Already popular with French and Spanish tourists, Bordeaux is getting ready to welcome more British tourists this year. The South of France is as popular as ever and the high prices associated with the French Riviera are falling thanks to budget flights and cheap car hire in France.

Marketing manager at Rhino Car Hire, Phil Partridge comments, ‘In these times of economic recession, the travel industry is finding that regions and cities in France are promoting themselves individually to try to attract the tourist to spend their euros locally. Bordeaux is no exception, and with easyJet and Ryanair including the city in their schedules, bookings for car hire at Bordeaux Airport have been rising hand in hand with the growing numbers of tourists keen to discover the delights of the 180 miles of sandy beaches to the west of the city or the regions of Garonne and the Dordogne to the east.’
