Comfort and convenience at the best price
We understand the importance of choosing the right pick-up location. With that said, Bookingauto strives to provide customers with the opportunity to collect a car from all desired locations in Alicante, including the city centre, main railway stations, and the nearest airports. Thanks to such a large selection of rental points, our clients can book a car in Alicante and pick it up at a convenient place for them.
Options and possibilities:
We take into account the preferences of our customers and look for a car that fits into the right category. For example, those who come to Alicante on their own or with a small company can rent a spectacular convertible Mercedes C cabrio from us, starting at €100 per day and rented out by the popular company sixt in Alicante. For those of you who arrive with your whole family or friends, a roomy and reliable minivan VW Transporter might be best - from €55 per day. For anyone who loves comfort and doesn’t have limited funds, budget recommends opting for a business class car like Nissan Maxima for €64 per day. For those travelling on a budget, rent a compact model Ford Fiesta for just €13 per day.
How to minimize costs:
In order to avoid paying too much, plan to pick up the car and return it at the same time. Car rental fees are set for the entire rental day. Therefore, if you return the car after 25 hours, the payment will be calculated as 48 hours, or two full days. Likewise, if you use your rental car for more than 72 hours, you will pay for 96 hours of rent.

The dynamics of price changes depending on the season
The highest demand for car rental in Alicante occurs during the high tourist season - summer.
On average, the cost increases by 20-30% and the choice of available cars is also significantly reduced if you don’t book in advance.
For example, in July, the average price for the popular model VW Passat in Alicante is €28 per day.
In autumn, the same car costs about €12 per day.
Highest summer price for convertibles. For example, a Mercedes C cabrio is offered at €100 per day.
Among the economy classes, the most popular model in Alicante is the Ford Fiesta. The rental price for such a car starts from €13 per day from sixt.
Business class car rental in high season is also more expensive. For example, renting a Nissan Maxima costs about €64 per day.
The excitement noticeably subsides in autumn and rental companies begin to reduce their rates. For example, you can rent a Opel Mokka very cheaply in the autumn for just €38 per day.
It will also be easier to find unusual and exclusive car models. For example, by renting a BMW X5, you will experience real driving pleasure and enjoy a luxurious visit that will remain in your memory forever.
