About the Place Alicante, Spain

Spain surely has many incredible places to explore — and Alicante simply can’t be missed.

Alicante has so much to offer that it is difficult to choose what to do first. We recommend starting the visit with the incredible Port of Alicante. Nearby, you can also get to know the Postiguet Beach and the Santa Barbara Castle — a place from where you can admire the views to the port and the whole city.

From there, take a walk at the Paseo de la Explanada de España, one of the most famous streets in Alicante. Surrounded by palm trees and buzzing with life, there you’ll find incredible restaurants, coffee shops, bars and shops. Enough to be entertained for an entire afternoon!

For antique lovers, a visit to the Concatedral de San Nicolás and the Basilica of Santa Maria is a must. To make it complete, add a morning or afternoon at the MACA Contemporary Art Museum of Alicante.

To enjoy Alicante to the fullest, hiring a car is a great option! Get to know the little corners of the city and the whole region with the help of Rentcars.com. Compare offers from the best car hire companies available and book in advance!

    Car Hire Requirements in Spain

    • Minimum Age

      For most car hire companies around the world, the minimum age requirement is 25. Drivers aged between 21 and 24 might be subject to additional local fees and may not be allowed to book vehicles under the Premium, Speciality, SUV, Minivan, Van, Convertible, Utility and Luxury Vehicle categories. Additional drivers must be at least 25 years old.

    • Driving Licence

      Each driver must present a full, valid and original national driving licence, held for a minimum of 2 years. If your licence is not in a language used in your destination country, an International Driving Permit to accompany your national driving licence is highly recommended.

    • ID and Passport

      Each driver must present a valid and original photo ID and passport.

    • International Credit Card

      The renter must present a valid and personal credit card with enough funds to be held as a security deposit. Third-party credit cards will not be accepted. The car hire company is solely responsible for approving the provided credit card. Online prepayment does not exempt the renter from providing a valid international credit card during vehicle pick-up. The hire company will place a hold in the amount of the required security deposit and, when applicable, any additional local fees not covered in the prepaid voucher will be charged to the card provided at the hire location.

    • Prepaid Booking Voucher

      You must present a printout of the Booking Confirmation Voucher at the hire location. This document officially confirms all agreed upon services, payment conditions, rates, discounts, as well as the availability of a vehicle from the selected group.

    • Important Information

      Car hire companies reserve the right to refuse service to underage or unlicensed drivers, those with poor credit history, or individuals otherwise considered liabilities by the hire company.
