Hiring a Car on Holiday

Excursions are expensive. We love to explore the places we visit, but with tours often costing £100 each, we like to find alternative ways to get around. Lanzarote is a gorgeous island with lots to see, much of it free! Hiring a car on holiday can work out excellent value, especially if you are a family or bigger group. When hiring a car abroad: 🪪 Don’t forget your driving license! 💳 Most companies will need a credit card for the deposit and many places don’t accept AMEX so always check. 💡The company will offer basic cover, shop around for “car hire excess insurance” - this means you can claim back any lost deposit if something happens to the car. 🚗 Consider just getting a car for 24 hours and not the whole trip if you don’t plan to explore every day.
