Driving Tips for Aix-en-Provence
When you rent a car in Aix-en-Provence, you give yourself the freedom to explore the southern French coast as well as the city. Keep this information in mind during your drive:
- Crit’ Air sticker: For Aix-en-Provence, you will need a “clean air” sticker that allows access into low-emission zones. Ask your branch agent for advice when you rent your car.
- Share the road: Know that it's legal for motorcycles to pass in and out of lines in Aix-en-Provence. Also, the region is known for hosting pro-cycling trials and is popular for cycling holidays.
- One-way streets: Most of the roads in Aix-en-Provence's city center are one-way streets, so you will need to pay special attention to road signs.
- Parking: There is very little parking in the city center. We recommend leaving your car at one of the Park and Ride lots just outside and taking a shuttle the rest of the way—there’s one every 10 minutes.
These and our other tips for driving in France as well as our guide on what to see in Provence will help make your trip a breeze.
