Hire a car in Valencia
Situated on Spain's east coast, the city of Valencia is a vibrant mix of the old and the new.
This Mediterranean mecca for history, eclectic nightlife and modern architectural innovation is the third-largest city in Spain. Being a coastal destination, you're never too far from a beautiful beach to relax on. The city is well-known for being the birthplace of paella and this rich gastronomic culture can be seen throughout Valencia's restaurant-lined streets.
Hiring a car is a great way to take advantage of the surrounding area. Away from the coastline and beaches of the city, the countryside is home to some of the lushest landscapes in the region.

Local knowledge
For the foodies
Paella is Valencia's most famous dish, but all kinds of seafood are naturally very popular here. You're spoilt for choice when it comes to restaurants, tapas bars and cafes all serving a range of dishes that showcase Valencia's traditional cuisine.
Paella – a rice dish made with either meat (typically rabbit or chicken) or seafood.
Arròs negre – rice forms the basis of many other traditional Valencian dishes. Arròs negre is rice cooked with squid, with the addition of squid ink for a distinctive black colour.
Fideuà – similar to a paella, but made with noodles instead of rice. Fresh fish and shellfish caught off the Valencian coast are at the heart of this dish, with lemon wedges acting as a garnish.
Coca de llanda – a sweet, sponge-cake style bread that comes in many flavours – including orange and lemon.
Fartons – popular as a breakfast food, these sugar-glazed pastry fingers that are often consumed with horchata – a rice-based beverage served ice-cold.
Car hire tips
Valencia Airport is approximately 9 km west of the centre and is the most convenient place to pick up a hire car if you are flying into the city.
There are a range of car hire companies to choose from in Valencia. If you are picking up from the airport, rental desks are located within the terminal building and cars are collected from the multi-storey car park.
Valencia Airport is not the only location where car hire is possible – if you’d prefer, the main railway station also acts as a pick up location.
Be aware of the various fuel policies on offer. A 'full to full' policy is the most cost effective choice. This means that the tank will be full when you receive the car – so you'll need to replace the fuel you used before returning the vehicle.
Do try to book your hire car in good time to avoid last minute stress that might impact on your holiday.
