Lens Guide

Lens

Lens, not commonly known as a tourist town, is nevertheless worth a visit for its few historical points of interest. The city, located in the northern part of France close to the larger city of Lille, was once a major mining municipal, an industry which in its wake has left conical spoil tips as a reminder of its heyday, a curious feature of Lens.

For those wishing to get an insight into the mining past of the city, the Centre Historique Minierde Lewarde provides information on this once booming industry. One interesting use for the spoil tips in the modern day is as an experimental orchid, where visitors can avail of guided tours and even taste the fruits grown here.

The war cemetery, known as Notre-Dame de Lorette, is a testament to the hundreds of thousands of people killed at this site, where a twelve-month long battle took place during WWII. Exhibits here include reconstructions of dugouts, machine guns and shells used in the battle.

For transportation around Lens, a bus line runs through the city. Walking is a great option for getting to know the ins and outs of this historically industrial place, while taxis are available for longer hops. Car hire is an appealing option for exploration of the scenic countryside surrounding the metropolis. We can arrange cheap Lens car hire for you online in a matter of minutes.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is Carrentals.co.uk the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).
