Biarritz faces the Atlantic, and luxury car rental with Zeus Prestige arrives at your hotel, your villa above the surf or Biarritz Pays Basque Airport. Take a convertible along the coast, a luxury SUV or prestige car through the Basque villages, or a supercar up the Pyrenean passes to the south.
Biarritz began as a whaling port, and the oldest known mention of the town dates from 1186 in the cartulary of Bayonne. Empress Eugénie built a palace on the beach in 1854, and it survives today as the Hôtel du Palais. The casino opened on 10 August 1901, and surfing arrived in 1957 when an American friend of the director Peter Viertel took a board into the waves.
Biarritz is home to some 26,000 people, and the Spanish border lies about 35 kilometres away. Morning belongs to the beach and the cliff paths, and afternoons drift toward the terraces. To the south and east, Basque villages, green hills and the long wall of the Pyrenees reward anyone with a car and a free day.
Drop the roof for this coastal run. South of Biarritz the road reaches Saint-Jean-de-Luz, a fishing port on the Nivelle that hosted the marriage of Louis XIV and Maria Theresa of Spain in 1660, after the Treaty of the Pyrenees. The Maison de l'Infante recalls that moment, and across the river lies Ciboure, where the composer Maurice Ravel was born. Salt air drifts into the open cabin, gulls wheel above the harbour, and the sea stays in view through the windows of the old streets.
Pick a roomy, smooth-riding car for this day among the Basque hills. In summer the whitewashed houses of Espelette are hung with strings of red peppers drying in the sun; the Espelette pepper holds an AOC, and a festival honours it on the last Sunday in October. Beyond the village, La Rhune rises to 905 metres on the border between France and Spain, where pottok ponies graze the slopes and the Petit train de la Rhune climbs to the summit. The cabin stays quiet, the leather cool and the country lanes unhurried.
Supercars and sports cars find a worthy road here. The Col d'Aubisque reaches 1,709 metres and links Laruns with Argelès-Gazost by way of the Col du Soulor. The climb from Laruns covers 16.6 kilometres at an average of 7.2 per cent, and the pass has appeared 47 times in the Tour de France since 1947. Near the top the road clings to the cliffs of the Cirque du Litor and passes through two short, narrow tunnels. Your stomach lifts with each drop beside the wheel, and your pulse stays high until the summit opens up. This is a long day, so start early.
Yes. Seafront hotels, villas above the surf and any other address in Biarritz or the wider Basque Country are all valid delivery points. Tell us the address and the days you need the car, and we take care of the rest.
Yes. Biarritz Pays Basque Airport (BIQ, ICAO LFBZ) lies about 4 kilometres from the town, and we deliver the car to the terminal or to the private aviation terminal.
The coast road to Saint-Jean-de-Luz is a convertible's natural territory, the Basque villages suit a roomy SUV or a smooth tourer, and the Col d'Aubisque rewards a supercar or sports car.
The Spanish border lies about 35 kilometres away. Confirm any cross-border trip when you book so that your cover applies across the border. Donostia-San Sebastián is our nearest Spanish location.
Yes, though it makes a long day out. The pass links Laruns and Argelès-Gazost, so plan an early start and check the weather in the mountains before you set out.
Choose from our cabriolets, supercars, prestige cars, sports cars and SUVs, tell us where you are staying in Biarritz, and the keys will be ready for your luxury car hire.
