We rented a car from Europcar at the Marseilles airport on 10/15/2019. There were four in our group, one bag each, of which 3 were the standard 24 inch size, but one was very large. We also all had backpacks. The car I had expected to rent, a Peugeot, was too small for the four of us and all our bags, at least according to the woman I was talking to at the Marseilles Europcar office. And she wasn't wrong! We upgraded to an Opel Grand 180D. It fit all of us and our bags.
I've read some awful reviews of Europcar, so I was expecting problems of some kind, but the rental process went off without a hitch (other than the upgrade, which was needed).
The car, although somewhat under-powered than I am used to, worked for us just fine! I have to say, I was surprised at the amazing gas (diesel) mileage. And it was an automatic!
We drove it all over Provence, then to Sarlat-la-Caneda in the Dordogne, where I dropped it off. The drop-off process executed painlessly, without any problem.
So, I can only speak for myself, but I would rent from Europcar again without hesitation. read more
