Renting a car in Europe, where to start?

February 15, 2010 at 11:35PM

Q I'm trying to rent a car in Paris, but am having trouble finding someone who can help me with our somewhat complicated arrangements. Are there local companies that offer international car rental?

A Most of the big car rental agencies – Hertz, Avis, Europecar.com, etc., have offices in most European cities, but there's a company based in Portland, Maine that's highly recommended by several local travel agencies. Autoeurope.com (1-800-223-5555) acts as a consolidator for a number of car rental agencies throughout Europe. They also offer discounts on airfares and hotels.
