Oficinas de alquiler de autos de Enterprise Lorient

On the southern coast of Brittany, Lorient is a fairly new town in Morbihan, founded in the 17th century. It offers visitors elements of international history mingled with an interesting heritage and lovely countryside. The town was the home of the East Indies Company in 1664, and shortly afterwards, a French Royal Navy base opened. Damaged during World War II, the town has been lovingly restored and is now known as "the five port city", with fishing, military, passenger, commercial and yachting ports. Lorient benefits from two Enterprise branches; one to the northeast of the town at Lorient Lanester, around three miles from the town center and conveniently located on the main N165 route. The other Enterprise branch is at Lorient South Brittany Airport, a 14-minute drive east of the city and ideal for those arriving by plane.

Places To Visit Outside Lorient

A visit to the pretty Ile de Groix just south of Lorient is a must! Park near the ferry port and take the short 30-minute boat ride to Port Tudy. There, you'll find stunning views and a beautiful island that's ideal for a picnic. Escape the hustle and bustle of the town of Lorient by driving to the coastline in your rental car. Once there, visit Larmor-Plage, a little like Brittany's Riviera. Nearby, Lomener is a nice stop-off before driving on to see the 18th-century Fort-Bloqué. The Guidel-plages are great for surfers, and Bas-Pouldu beach has a changing landscape with wooded areas and sandbanks.

Parking And Traffic Information In Lorient

You shouldn't have any problem parking your rental car in Lorient. The town has numerous public car parks, such as the Parking Place d'Armes, and parking at the ports, offering central access to the town and its attractions. As a fairly small town, driving should be relatively easy. However, a satnav is always beneficial to help you navigate, especially as there are some one-way streets.
