Car Rental in Bastia

Convertible rental in Bastia

The most widespread cabriolet models offered for rent in France are: BMW 3 series Cabriolet, Peugeot 206 Cabriolet, Renault Megane Cabriolet, Audi A3 Convertible, Audi A4 Convertible and BMW Z4 Roadster.

At the booking time, please check the rental conditions carefully. Quite often, rental offices in Bastia require two credit cards to guarantee issuance of a cabrio or a roadster.

We recommend ordering additional no-excess insurance that covers your risk (franchise), since the franchise amount for cabriolets in France is quite high.

Make sure to inspect the rental invoice issued at the office in Bastia and compare it with the information indicated in your voucher. Sometimes, rental officers make 'unintentional' mistakes in rental invoices.

In parking garage, examine the vehicle for defects and scratches carefully. If you find any of them, check whether they have been specified in your rental document.

When parking a cabriolet in Bastia, it is recommended to unfold the roof and close windows in order to prevent theft or robbery.

Enjoying sights of Bastia in cabriolet
In the ​​Terra Nova district, too, there are several interesting places to take a stroll to. The centre of this area is considered to be ​​the Donjon square, which preserved a beautiful tower of the 16th century. Over the years, the tower was used as a prison, it incarcerated Corsican nationalists, among whom was Samperro Corso. 
In the immediate vicinity of the old tower is one of the most popular bars in town - Bar de la Citadelle. Its value is not only in rich selection of refreshments and relaxing atmosphere, but also in its beautiful view of city, that opens up from the bar. 

Not far from the square is the Governor's Palace - a beautiful monument of architecture in the Moorish style. This beautiful palace of the 14th century, which was originally built for the governor, also has a very dark and eventful history. After the capital of Corsica was moved to Ajaccio, this beautiful palace was turned into a prison, and in the late 18th century it was completely destroyed during the attack of the British. The historic monument was restored only many years later, and in 1943 it was again partially destroyed by an explosion. Restoration work was carried out in the palace, and now, in its repaired part is an interesting ethnographic museum.
