Hi Guest
Spain has many beautiful places to visit, but Palma de Mallorca is a diamond among gems. Situated on the shore of the Island of Mallorca, Palma de Mallorca is the perfect place from which to enjoy everything on the island. Though people are often attracted to Palma de Mallorca because of its beautiful beaches, you may be pleasantly surprised at the number of beautiful historic buildings and the variety of architectural styles displayed in the city and the surrounding countryside. Popular destinations that are a short drive with your car rental in Palma de Mallorca and around include the Puerto Alcudia beach resort and the medieval walled town of Alcudia. There are more than 20 locations where you can get car rentals in Palma de Mallorca, so it is convenient to arrange. You can find a cheap car rental in Palma de Mallorca through momondo and reserve it in advance of your visit. You can drive to many areas, park, and then walk about for a more intimate experience. Parking is readily available in the city in parking lots and underground garages.
A car rental in Palma de Mallorca is highly recommended. There aren’t many other transportation options besides a taxi, and that would not be an economical option if you want to explore the area's attractions. A car of your own will give you the freedom to go where you want and plan your trip the way you would prefer to view the city and the island. The city is walkable, and there are many parking lots for your economy car rental or your passenger van rental, within a few minutes of the downtown area. Some lots require payment, but there are free ones as well. Some paid parking areas allow you to reserve spaces.
In an effort to decrease the number of accidents, the Spanish Government has passed a number of new traffic laws in recent years, and they are very strict about enforcing them. It is illegal to drive with flip-flops on, or with no shirt. You can’t put your arm out the window, argue with a passenger, use your cell phone, or use your horn inappropriately while driving. These are considered distracting. Don’t double park, drive through a red light, speed, or drive while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. New laws are made all the time, so you might want to check with the clerk of the car rental location in Palma de Mallorca to make sure you are up to date.
To rent a car in Spain, you will need to be over the age of 21, have your passport, and a major credit card. If you are from a non-European Union country, or your driver’s license is in English you will need to have an International Driver’s Permit. Be sure and get this well in advance because it usually takes a couple of weeks to get one by mail and you might miss the joy of driving in your Palma de Mallorca car rental.
