Enterprise car hire locations - Tarbes

Tarbes is the capital of the Hautes-Pyrénées department, and the historic capital of the Bigorre region. According to legend, it was founded by Tarbis, Queen of Ethiopia, who fled to the region to conceal her disappointment after Moses refused to marry her. Archaeological research shows that the city's foundations date back to the third century BC. Situated at a ford on the banks of the Adour River, it allowed merchants to stop on their way to the Atlantic or the Mediterranean. The town soon developed large agricultural estates, a tradition that continues today in the agri-food industry. This industry made it an ideal location for Enterprise to open a car rental branch at the airport in Tarbes.
