  • Bring the right documents to keep the pick-up process smooth. You'll generally need your physical driver's licence (no screenshots) and another form of photo ID. Also bring a credit card that can cover the deposit. If anything extra is required, you'll find it in your booking.

  • Spend a moment familiarising yourself with your rental. Check your seat and mirrors, learn where everything is, and get comfortable with its handling before you set off. And remember to stick to the right side of the road in Spain.

  • Make sure you stay within the local speed limits. Usually that's around 20kph in urban areas and 110kph or so on highways, unless road signs indicate differently.

  • One of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination is around 9am. Make driving easier by avoiding peak periods in general.
