Malaga Cars

Due to the large number of flights arriving on a daily basis, it is advisable to book your car hire well in advance before arriving at the airport. Most of the companies offer advance bookings via their websites. Due to the fact that Malaga has more than 300 days of sunshine in a year, you can even spoil yourself by renting a convertible such as a Peugeot Cabrio!

Facts:

- Try to avoid the looooong queue by asking the car hire company for a meet and greet service to personally take you to your car, doesnt cost a fortune to do this and worth it with the increasing number of tourists flowing in every year

- Wouldnt it be better to be able to call Tom, Dick or Harry every year and ask for that discount or an upgrade on your car? Try to choose and get acquainted with that one special company to come back happily to every year

- ALL companies offer free delivery and collection from the Malaga airport, again I say, insist on a local company with its own fleet rather than brokers leaving you high and dry

- Most car hire companies also have affiliations to the local golf courses to get you tee times
