Avis Car Rental at Barcelona Airport

It is, of course, possible to join bus city tours which explore different districts of Barcelona, where some of the main sights are located. Neighbourhoods like La Ramba with its historic side streets and hidden squares, tapas bars and independent craft shops are not in every tourist guide but well worth a visit.

Visitors to Barcelona preferring to travel under their own steam for an exploration of the city and a journey of discovery into the Cataluña region may prefer to reserve car hire instead. A tour to the vineyards where the delicious sparkling wine Cava is produced or a trip to Mount Montserrat with its breath-taking views from the monastery on its peak or the Royal Basilica are all situated within a short drive of Barcelona.

An early morning start may be required to beat the commuter traffic, but by late afternoon visitors are back at their hotel to change for the evening out at a traditional flamenco show and Barcelona’s vibrant nightlife.

Barcelona has a wealth of cultural and heritage highlights, but also offers fantastic shops with traditional arts and craft gifts and souvenirs, fashion and accessories as well as delicious food and wine.

Avis has some excellent choices for affordable car rentals suited for city driving. For a young couple on a budget there are small cars like the mini Ford Ka, which is nevertheless spacious enough to transport up to 5 passengers and 3 pieces of luggage. The 5-door economy class Seat Ibiza on the other hand has a little more engine power for Barcelona’s fast highway and motorway traffic. Seating up to 5 passengers, the Seat Ibiza and similar vehicles from Avis feature air conditioning, CD player and manual transmission.

The compact class Seat Leon 1.9 is slightly larger still with regard to engine size and can offer 5 travellers comfort and space for up to 3 large suitcases. The same class provides popular cars like the Volkswagen Golf, while the intermediate class from Avis can offer cars like the Volkswagen Passat, which also seats 5 people but has room in the boot for up to 4 pieces of luggage. The car can be delivered as either 4 or 5-door option and it features air conditioning, CD player and manual transmission.
