KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Megève

  • Car hire in Megeve offers convenience, freedom and endless possibilities for discovery at your own pace. For instance, you could take a drive to the iconic Mont Blanc. With its impressive history, Mont Blanc provides an exceptional alpine experience and boasts stunning vistas. Opting for car hire in Megeve will significantly improve your access to the more secluded areas, such as the Aiguille du Midi. This striking mountain peak, situated in the Mont Blanc massif within the French Alps, presents an awe-inspiring view and a rich variety of alpine flora and fauna. Megeve car hire also grants you easy access to the charming nearby towns of Chamonix and Annecy, each with its unique offerings and Alpine charm.
  • After landing at Geneva Airport (GVA), collect your luggage and head to the Car Hire Centre. If you're arriving from the Swiss sector, you'll need to cross the transit area to get to the French sector. To get there, once you’re in the Arrivals hall having cleared customs, head up one floor to the check-in level. Then, follow the signage marked "Destination France". You'll find the car hire desks to the right of the terminal, close to the Air France ticket counters. To hire a car, you’ll need your driving licence, passport and credit/debit card for the security deposit. If you're visiting from outside the European Union, you might also need an International Driving Permit (IDP), so make sure to check this in advance.
  • The quality of roads in Megeve is generally good. The signage in and around Megeve is clear, consistent and bilingual, with instructions in both French and English, making it easier for international visitors to navigate. However, it's always a good idea to have a navigation app on hand. Drivers in Megeve, and France in general, are polite and accustomed to mountain driving and are aware of the necessary precautions, such as lower speed limits and maintaining a safe distance.
  • If you're unaccustomed to driving on mountain roads, you may find the winding roads and sharp turns somewhat challenging, especially in winter when road conditions can be icy and snowy. Furthermore, Megeve is a mountain town and its weather can be unpredictable, particularly in winter. Make sure to check the weather forecast before setting out. Finally, during the peak ski season (December to February), Megeve can become quite busy, particularly on weekends and public holidays. Arriving early at popular ski areas can help avoid some of this traffic.
  • Book your rental car in Megève at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Mini rental cars in Megève are around 23% cheaper than other car types, on average
