Visiting some of the wilder parts of Europe with the budget carriers you may decide on a hire car from Beauvais Airport on your return to use in getting to and around Paris. We can even arrange for you to collect your hire car from Beauvais and drop it off at Charles de Gaulle or vice versa if that helps your plans.

Beauvais Mini Guide

How do I get to Beauvais?
The chances are that you won’t be flying into Beauvais for the limited routes would mean a number of connecting flights would be necessary. Instead, you are likely to be using it after flying into Paris CDG as a cheap way of seeing Europe with Ryanair, or flying into it after a similar sojourn.

What is Beauvais Airport Like?
It’s a former small regional airport that’s had to expand rapidly following the arrival of Ryanair. As such, it has plenty of facilities including several restaurants, many shops, both before and after security but all fit in with the budget nature of the airport. Still, it’s fine for what you need whilst waiting for a plane.

Staying Near Beauvais Airport
With the long distance into Paris, many choose to overnight in or near Beauvais Airport. For cheap and simple but clean and functional, choose the Balladins which costs R600 a night. There aren’t any luxury hotels; the closest is the Mercure Beauvais which is a little more upmarket at R1500 a night.

What is There to be Seen Around Beauvais?
  • Most people fly to and from Beauvais because it’s close to Paris and much cheaper than using the main Charles de Gaulle Airport. The journey to Paris isn’t quick but it is easy but if the capital isn’t your destination try…
  • Amiens. Home of Jules Verne and the museum dedicated to his work but more important for the beautiful Amiens Cathedral.
  • Rouen. The historic city is an hour to the west of the airport, again, easily accessed and you can spend hours wandering the medieval heart of the city.
  • Further north you have the battlefields of the Somme around Abbeville and the Great War cemeteries.
