There are several transportation choices available for you to reach Torrevieja, Spain upon your arrival to the area. However, you will also need transportation during your stay. If you intend to explore nearby cities throughout the Costa Blanca, a Torrevieja car hire is the best transportation to choose providing you with the freedom to travel on your schedule and not that of public transportation. Here are some tips for finding the best car hire service for your trip.

There are several major car hire companies in and around Torrevieja. You, of course, have the option of renting a car at the Alicante International Airport, the best airport to fly into when visiting Torrevieja, or you can wait until you arrive in Torrevieja. Be sure to reserve a car early, though. With the increased tourism during the summer season, the rental cars sell out rather quickly. It is a good idea to reserve a car when you book your flight and make the hotel reservation, which also gives you the advantage of getting a good price on the car.

Online comparison is the easiest way to find the car you want at a price you can afford. Some websites allow you to compare prices of multiple companies side by side to allow for a more convenient comparison. Pay attention to the prices and deals offered, though, and be sure to compare the entire car package offered. For instance, the rental price of one car may be more than another car but only because it includes extra costs such as unlimited mileage, an extra driver or the taxes. With this in mind, the car appearing to be more expensive upon first glance may actually be the better deal. Of course, you should read the fine print and ask plenty of questions to be sure to get the most accurate estimate before committing to a car. It may also be beneficial to your pocket book to call the local car hire company in Torrevieja. You may find that the local Torrevieja agency is offering a special not advertised online.

The economy size is the least expensive with the best rental rate and fuel efficiency. If you do not know what size you need at the time of reservation, you should reserve an economy as they sell out the fastest. You always have the option of upgrading at a later time. If the car hire company does not have an economy size available, they will upgrade you to a larger size and many will only charge you the cost of the economy size vehicle.

Finally, you should consider the length of time you will need the car when comparing the advertised costs among companies. Most car hire agencies offer either a daily or weekly rate, and the daily rate is often more expensive than the weekly rate. Even if you will not need the car an entire week, you may ultimately save money by paying for the weekly rate rather than the daily rate.
