Avis Lebanon Awards

Fancy breezing off on an epic summer road trip from the sleepy coastal towns clustered around Portugal’s Ria Formosa to the fragrant orange trees and imposing Spanish architecture of Seville? It can be easily arranged.

How about journeying through the varied cultures, cuisines and landscapes of Denmark, Sweden and Norway? We’d be happy to help.

Or perhaps you’re thinking of checking in at Italy’s fashion capital Milan and checking out at romantic Rome? We recommend the stunning coastal road; it adds an hour to your drive, but is absolutely worth it for the views.

And how can oenophiles resist the opportunity to explore Europe’s verdant vineyards, from the sun-soaked wineries of the Douro Valley near Porto, through Spain’s Tempranillo and Rioja farms, and finishing off in the rolling landscapes of Bordeaux? With Avis’ one-way car rental, Europe is your oyster.

If your trip necessitates a flight or train for part of the way – such as a journey from England to mainland Europe – book a one-way rental car for a quick drive to an international train station or airport in the UK, and pick up another one-way hire car once you arrive at your destination.

You’ll find our one-way cross-Europe car hire is an easy way to explore the continent on your own terms, without having to run for trains, reschedule flights or quietly pray for a toilet break on the bus. It gives you total freedom to plan your trip exactly as you want it using our many available routes.

Skiers and snowboarders need no longer groan at the thought of lugging bulky equipment onto planes, buses and trains to access Europe’s most coveted slopes. Now you can pack it conveniently in a one-way van rental and drive yourself and your gang from door to door, and even further.

Hire a car or van from Lyon to access the spectacular terrain around Chambéry. From here, veer northwest to the heady inclines of Chamonix before crossing into Switzerland to enjoy Martigny’s prime peaks. Drop off your hire car here, or drive a scenic stretch across the country to stunning Davos, where you’ll finish on a literal high with 300km of brilliant white pistes to enjoy. Return your vehicle to us at our Zurich Airport office before flying home.

Golfers will enjoy our one-way routes, too. With unbridled access to Europe’s award-winning courses, start planning your tour of the continent’s top 100 golfing greens now. Many prized contenders are in the Netherlands, France and Spain. Pick up your one-way hire car in Amsterdam for a hole-in-one at Royal Hague Golf and Country Club and drop it off in Barcelona, taking in Golf de Chantilly, Le Grand Parcours (aka Morfontaine) and PGA Catalunya Resort along the way.

Whether you’re moving from Wrocław to Copenhagen for an exciting new job opportunity or simply upping sticks from Brussels for a fresh start somewhere sunny, Avis can help.

Whatever your next cross-country road trip, Avis’ one-way car and van rentals mean you can collect your vehicle from one location and return it at a different destination at the end of your trip, making any journey possible.
