If you have just gotten into Poitiers via the Poitiers Train Station, one thing you will definitely not be is stranded. You could use a bus to get to your hotel, or a taxi, or the ultimate mode of travel: get a rental. Reason I say this is the ultimate mode of travel is because it gives you a combination of style and comfort, as well as maintaining your personal space and privacy. If that has not sold to you yet, how about the idea of travelling the city and its surroundings all at your own pace and timing without having to rely on or adhere to strict schedules of public transport; sold yet?

From the self-respecting big time business man to the family of 6 and even down to the solo traveler, anyone in need of a car for rent will definitely have their needs taken care of by at least one of the many agencies around. You get to specify the exact car you wish to hire; from important details such as the model of the vehicle, the number of seats or the kind of engine right down to the minor details such as the color of the car or the kind of add-on you would like to have. For add-ons you essentially pay more but it is a small price to pay for comfort, in the case of a media player; or for safety in the case of wanting a child seat to come with the car.
