Car Rental Gare de Tours

General information

Tours Station, or Gare de Tours, is situated on the Place du Général Leclerc right in the city center and dates back to 1846. The city is located in central France and is the capital of the Indre-et-Loire department. Tours Station is a terminus. From here you can take the train to for example Bordeaux, the east of France (TGV) and Le Mans. At Tours' other station, Saint-Pierre-des-Corps, trains stop that don't end in Tours. Therefore more TGV lines stop here.

It's no problem to rent a car in Tours. Avis has an office inside the concourse, but it's closed on Sundays. There's a parking garage underneath the square opposite the station where you can park.
