A bit about Goldcar
The car rental company, Goldcar, was established in 1985 by the Alcaraz brothers. The Spanish duo opened their first car hire offices in Alicante, Spain and for a long time only operated within Spain. In 2011, Goldcar opened a branch in Faro which facilitated its international expansion. Today, the company has over 60,000 vehicles – most of which they update annually – making their cars part of one of the youngest fleets that customers can rent.

easyCar customer reviews for Goldcar

Madrid Airport
"Although we arrived at Madrid Barajas late on a Sunday evening, the bus came out and took us to Goldcar (easycar partner) where we received a kind and friendly welcome. The car, Volkswagen Polo, was ideal in the Spanish traffic and cuts out at traffic lights, saving fuel... I would certainly use them again, in Spain or elsewhere. "
