Rent a Car at Monastir Airport
Monastir Habib Bourguiba International Airport (IATA: MIR) is the main gateway to the Tunisian Sahel. First Class delivers your rental car straight to the arrivals hall — no shuttle bus to an off-site depot, and no airport surcharge added to your quote.
We track your flight number in real time. If you land late, our agent simply arrives later too. You are never charged waiting fees and you never find an empty desk.
How airport pickup works
- Send us your flight number and arrival time when you book.
- Our agent meets you in the arrivals hall with a name sign.
- Vehicle inspection, paperwork and keys take around 10 minutes.
- You drive away from the airport car park immediately.
Why not use the international desks
Global rental brands operating at Monastir typically add a location surcharge, require a credit card with a large blocked deposit, and hand you over to a local partner anyway. We are that local operator — but you deal with us directly, at a lower price, with flexible deposit options including cash.
Where you can go from Monastir Airport
The airport sits inside the Skanes resort strip, so most hotels are just a few minutes away. Sousse is roughly 25 km, Port El Kantaoui around 30 km, Mahdia about 55 km, and the holy city of Kairouan a little over an hour inland.
Having your own car matters most in the evening, when hotel shuttles stop running and taxi prices to the resort areas rise sharply.
FAQ
Is there an extra fee for airport delivery?
No. Delivery and return at Monastir Airport are included in the price we quote. We do not apply the airport surcharge that desk-based rental companies typically add.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
We monitor your flight using the number you give us at booking. Our agent arrives at the real landing time, including at night and on public holidays, at no extra cost.
Can I rent a car at Monastir Airport without a credit card?
Yes. We accept several deposit methods including cash and bank transfer, which is often impossible with the international chains at the airport desks.
Do I need an international driving permit in Tunisia?
For most nationalities your national licence is enough for a tourist stay, provided you have held it for at least one year. Message us with your country of issue and we will confirm before you travel.
