Hertz in Maastricht
The city of Maastricht is in the far south of The Netherlands, in the leg of land that extends down between Belgium and Germany. It's right on the Belgian border and just six miles from Germany to the east. If you rent a car in Maastricht you'll find that it is well served by local road connections. The A2 and A79 motorways mean that cities like Brussels in Belgium and Cologne in Germany are just an hour's drive away. Amsterdam is 130 miles northwest. Parking and traffic can be a problem at times but Maastricht does have a useful inner ring of roads to help drivers reach the important parts of the city.
The capital of the Limburg Province of the Netherlands is a big and mostly modern city, renowned as the venue of the signing of a far-reaching treaty. The Maastricht Treaty created the European Union and lead to the formation of the Euro currency, therefore proving its worth as one of Europe's major cities and well worth visiting. With your hire car you'll be able to enjoy touring the sights of the city. The highlights include the walled medieval city, the banks and bridges of the Meuse River, and the lively shopping and leisure facilities in Binnenstad.
