A Good Ride

The rental location moved from Terminal 1 to Terminal 2. After various inquiries, we found the rental point at T2, where many car rental companies are located. We took a number and waited, but noticed that people who were ahead of us had left, yet we were not called. The staff helped Western customers who arrived later before us. Finally, after about 40 minutes of waiting (despite many empty counters), we were served. Because we didn't read the details carefully, we booked a manual car instead of an automatic. The car rental desk told us that we had to pay extra for an automatic, so our original 50 euro per day rental increased by 33 euros (originally 80+ euros but discounted to 33 euros). After adding various fees (10 euros per day for an additional driver, 70 euros for crossing into Monaco, 20% tax, etc.), our total changed from 500+ euros to 1041 euros before the process was completed.

The rental company was Europcar. They are a large company with good service.

I had to wait over an hour and a half to pick up my car on Friday 2 July at the Nice airport.

Excellent service at the desk during pick up. Gave good tips for our trip.
