We're right at Bordeaux Airport, so the moment you land you can grab your keys and start exploring one of France's most beautiful and delicious regions without any fuss. Our fleet has everything you need, from compact cars for discovering Bordeaux's stunning UNESCO-listed city center to spacious SUVs perfect for wine touring through Saint-Émilion, Médoc, and Pomerol's legendary vineyards. We genuinely enjoy helping our customers find hidden gems beyond the city – the wild Atlantic surf beaches of Arcachon, the towering Dune du Pilat, or the charming Périgord countryside are all within easy reach. Our friendly team is always on hand with GPS, child seats, and flexible rental options to make everything smooth and stress-free from start to finish. With over 113 years of experience and a passion for exceptional service, we're proud to be your starting point for the very best of southwest France.
History
Established in 1912.
We've been helping people hit the road since 1912, when SIXT was founded in Munich, Germany, and over 113 years later that same passion for getting people where they want to go is still very much alive. Our Bordeaux Airport location feels like a perfect fit – this region has been attracting wine lovers, artists, and adventurers for centuries, and we're proud to play a small part in continuing that tradition. From a modest family operation to a global presence in over 100 countries, we've grown enormously, but our love for quality vehicles and genuine customer care has stayed the same – and there's no better place to live that out than in the heart of the world's most celebrated wine region.
Meet the Business Owner: Sixt S.
Running our Bordeaux Airport team is something I genuinely treasure – this region has a way of making everyone fall in love with it, whether it's the world-famous wines of Saint-Émilion, the wild Atlantic beaches of Arcachon, or simply a lazy afternoon on the beautiful Place de la Bourse. We've worked hard to make the whole rental experience feel effortless, from picking up your car right at the airport to flexible returns that fit around your plans, because southwest France deserves to be explored fully and at your own pace. My team and I are always happy to share our favorite local spots and make sure you leave Bordeaux with memories that last well beyond the last glass of Merlot.
