Car hire in at Geneva

I've looked at a few other threads which suggest car hire from French side will not include winter tyres. If you want them you will have to get them as an option.

Disclaimer - as Ise will tell you there is a lot of incorrect 'information' on the vaious threads about hire cars and winter tyres and I don't know that the above is 100% accurate. I have read it several times however and it is the reason I used the Swiss side.

Strange - sounds naughty and something I would have raised with the company if it happened to me. If i could be bothered anyway which I suppose is what they might rely on.

But anyway the man on the Budget desk referred to a complimentary bus and I wasn't charged. Out of interest which company charged you?

Do not underestimate how difficult it is to find the returns on the French side. If you think it is going to be easier than walking a tightrope backwards while doing a rubics cube and playing tennis then you are underestimating it.

OK I'm exagerating but it is difficult, pay attention when the helpful cheerful staff are explaining it. If I sound a little bitter its because I had a bad experience with the Swiss car hire desk.
