KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Colmar
- Colmar is a historic town in the Grand Est region, close to the border between France and Germany. While you may wish to explore the mix of medieval, early renaissance and Gothic buildings of Old Town on foot, Colmar car hire opens up so much more in this region. With a hire car, you can explore nearby ruins like The Three Castles of Eguisheim, Chateau du Hohlandsbourg and Castle Wineck. You can also head out to ski resorts like La Bresse-Hohneck and enjoy the other natural wonders in the region.
- If you’re planning on picking your hire vehicle up at the airport before heading to Colmar, Entzheim Strasbourg Airport (SXB) will be convenient. Located around 68 km north of Colmar, the airport features a range of hire car kiosks in the arrivals hall, just after luggage claim. You may notice that Colmar-Houssen Airport (CMR) lies within the Colmar city limits. However, this is a small airport mostly dedicated to light aircraft. There are no car hire facilities here.
- Remember that in Colmar and all throughout France, you will need to drive on the right-hand side of the road and give way to your left. Night driving is perfectly safe in this region of France. Indeed, it can be a great way to avoid traffic. So, if you’re booking car hire in Colmar with plans of visiting nearby towns like Mullhouse and Saint-Die-des-Vosges, you may be able to save time and enjoy a more leisurely drive by heading off after 8 pm.
- In Old Town of Colmar, you will find narrow winding streets that are often filled with pedestrians who are paying more attention to the ancient buildings than to traffic. For this reason, it’s crucial to drive cautiously and keep your eyes on the road when in the city centre. If you’re booking car hire in Colmar so you can explore the hiking trails of Le Hohneck or nearby communes like Muhlbach-sur-Munster, it’s worth noting that there are many narrow, winding single-lane roads to traverse in this region. So, it’s essential to drive cautiously and keep an eye out for livestock and pedestrians.
- Book your rental car in Colmar at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Mini rental cars in Colmar are around 43% cheaper than other car types, on average

What type of car is recommended for driving in Colmar?
Since the northeastern region of France is known for its narrow, winding roads and tight alleys, compact vehicles tend to be a logical choice for car hire in Colmar. If you’re travelling in a large group or simply have a lot of gear to bring, mid-sized vehicles like the Opel Mokka or Renault Scenic add plenty of room for luggage and extra passengers without making tight turns or parking difficult.
What's the speed limit in Colmar?
Throughout Colmar, you will find the speed limit is generally 50 km/h unless otherwise indicated. However, please be sure to drive to the conditions. If it has been snowing and there is ice on the road, you may need to slow down. The same is true for areas with a lot of pedestrians. On main roads leading out to the highways, the speed limit is generally 80 km/h. On motorways, the speed limit is 130 km/h if safe to do so. In rain or other difficult conditions, it’s expected that you will drive at 110 km/h or slower if needed.
Where are the best places to park in Colmar?
When you pick up your Colmar car hire, it’s worth asking the hire company about Zone Bleu parking, as they may be able to provide you with a DISC enabling you to park in Zone Bleu car parks. Note that if you park in a Zone Bleu area without a DISC, you may receive a fine. Underground multistorey car parks can be found all around Colmar. The St Josse car park, for example, is convenient for exploring Old Town. You can usually park here for free for up to 1 hour. After this, there is a charge of approximately € 2.10 (around A$ 3.05) for up to 1h 25 min and then an additional € 0.20 or so (approx. A$ 0.30) for every additional 15min.
