Private driver in Lorient

Lorient South Brittany airport is in Ploemeur, a few minutes from the city centre and the beaches. It mainly handles business aviation and private flights; scheduled services are now very limited. For an international flight, we meet you at Nantes, Rennes or Brest airport and drive you directly to Lorient. Your driver waits at the terminal, holding a sign with your name, and follows your actual arrival time.

Lorient station, on the line from Paris to Quimper, is linked to the capital by high-speed train in about three hours. From the station as from the airport, we drive to seaside hotels, harbours, companies in the Lorient area and neighbouring towns.

Lorient grew up around its natural harbour. The former submarine base, now known as Lorient La Base, has become the home port of the great ocean-racing teams; the Cité de la Voile Éric Tabarly tells that story. Opposite, the citadel of Port-Louis has guarded the harbour entrance since the seventeenth century.

Every August, the Festival Interceltique draws visitors from many countries. Traffic and parking then become difficult: being dropped off and collected close to the concert venues changes the whole evening.

• Drop-offs at Lorient La Base and the Cité de la Voile
• The ferry landing for the island of Groix
• Beaches and hotels in Larmor-Plage, Ploemeur and Guidel
• Festival Interceltique evenings, returning whenever you choose

To the west, half an hour’s drive brings you to Pont-Aven, the painters’ town where Gauguin stayed, with its galleries and watermills. The road continues to Concarneau and its walled town.

To the east, Carnac and its standing stones, the Quiberon peninsula and the Gulf of Morbihan can all be reached in about an hour. Inland, Hennebont and the Blavet valley reveal a more secret Brittany. Your driver plans a half-day or a full day with you, according to your wishes and the season.

The Lorient area lives on shipbuilding, fishing, the marine industry and ocean racing. We drive executives, technical teams and visitors from abroad between the airport, the shipyards, company headquarters and hotels.

Booking a driver for the day lets you move from one meeting to the next without worrying about port access or parking. For longer journeys, we link Lorient with Brest, Quimper, Vannes, Nantes or Rennes, in English or in French.

A technical team from abroad come to work on a racing yacht for a week: airport welcome, daily journeys between the hotel and Lorient La Base, dinner in town. A racing team sponsor invites clients to watch a race start: coordinated vehicles between the station, the race village and the restaurant.

A couple touring France wish to spend a day in Pont-Aven and Concarneau. Festival-goers from Scotland want to get back to their hotel in Larmor-Plage after the concerts without looking for transport in the middle of the night. Each time, the return hour stays open.
