Many people visiting Spain choose to rent a car upon arrival for all or part of their vacation.<\/p>\n

Car rental in Spain is available through both international and domestic companies. These include Avis, Hertz, Europcar, Alamo, Economy, and National, as well as local operators like Goldcar. If you go with a Spanish company, make sure to read the fine print and understand any additional charges beyond the stated price of the rental, as sometimes there are hidden fees.<\/p>\n

Most of the big international car rental companies have desks at major airports in Spain. These include\u00a0Barcelona<\/a> Airport (BCN), Madrid Airport (MAD), and Seville<\/a> Airport (SVQ). Many also have city center locations. You can often find cheaper rental cars there, as you don’t have to pay the airport taxes.<\/p>\n

Another way to save money is to book your car online before you travel. There are always voucher codes and discounts for the large international companies, and they can get you good deals or free upgrades. <\/p>\n

Car rental in Spain requires you to show a valid international drivers licence, so make sure to bring it with you when you travel. Additionally, you can add insurance if you are not covered by your travel insurance policy, credit card, or car insurance in your home country, so it’s worth checking your policies before you choose insurance for your rental car.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
