Landed in Marseille from Barcelona, and immediately went to pick up a rental car that we ordered online. The car pickup is outside the airport, in the parking lot, which is actually very practical, unlike other locations where it's inside the airport building and makes it harder to find and leave the place. This way, it's already outside by the exit so you just get in the car and leave, no getting lost. We got a sporty Ford with a GPS for an extra 12$ a day which I highly recommend. Do not use your own data unless you have some amazing service, because if you drive somewhere and your phone doesn't work, you are out of luck. When we found ourselves driving through mountains, random cities, we noticed our cell reception was off (even though we had international coverage). The GPS worked perfectly the entire time and did not let us down, money well spent. Drove directly to Aix-En-Provence, France.
