Car Hire in Bilbao

Welcome to Bilbao, Spain, where every turn reveals a new layer of beauty and charm. By driving a car, you will be able to explore Bilbao and its surroundings at your own pace. Discover the north of Spain with your car and fall in love with everything it has to offer.

What to see in Bilbao?

Nestled in the heart of the Basque Country, Bilbao beckons with its fusion of modernity and tradition. Hire a car in Bilbao and begin your journey by navigating the city streets, where the iconic Guggenheim Museum stands as a testament to architectural brilliance. Marvel at its titanium curves and contemporary art collections that captivate visitors from all around the world.

With your rental car, venture beyond the city limits to discover the landscapes that define the Basque region. Drive along the rugged coastline, where cliffs meet the endless expanse of the Bay of Biscay. Stop at charming coastal villages like Getxo and Plentzia, where lighthouses stand against the crashing waves.

If you are a Game of Thrones fan, you will probably want to visit San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, a destination that will transport you directly into the realm of Westeros. Just a 40-minute drive from the city centre lies Dragonstone, the original stronghold of House Targaryen. As you walk through the stairs that lead to this iconic site, you'll find yourself standing upon the very steps where Daenerys Targaryen once walked, forging her path to power and destiny.

For nature enthusiasts, the lush greenery of Reserva de la Biosfera de Urdaibai awaits just a short drive from Bilbao. Lose yourself in its colourful forests, tranquil rivers, and diverse wildlife as you immerse yourself in the tranquillity of nature. If you have the opportunity, stop by Bermeo, Ea, Elantxobe, Gernika (immortalised by Pablo Picasso's famous painting), or Mundaka, small villages in the area that encapsulate the real essence of the Basque Country.

Bilbao: A gastronomic experience

No trip to Bilbao is complete without indulging in the region's culinary delights. Car hire in Bilbao, and go on a gastronomic journey through the towns of the Basque countryside. Sample pintxos, the beloved Basque version of tapas, in traditional taverns, or savour seafood at coastal restaurants overlooking the sea. Gaztandegui, La Viña del Ensanche, El Globo, and Gure Toki are some of our recommendations.

Frequently Asked Questions about Car Hire in Bilbao

It’s simple: choose your destination and the pick-up date. Click on 'Check prices and availability now'. Finally, select the type of vehicle you want to rent and click 'Book'.

You can choose the pick-up point: the airport, at the train station or at a local office throughout Bilbao.

Yes, just choose a different office when you click on the 'Return car' option while you are making your booking.

Our services are available 24 hours a day whenever there are incoming flights or trains. We also recommend that you provide us with your flight number so, if you’re delayed, the hire company can wait for you.

You can extend the contract as long as the rental company allows extensions and has availability for the additional days, although currently very few companies allow contract extensions. Please note that in order to extend the rental contract, you will need to go to the office where you picked up the vehicle to sign the extension. If you do not go to the office to sign, the vehicle insurance may become invalid, and the company may penalize you for not signing the extension on time.

You can check if it's allowed to take the vehicle to another country in the terms of each offer and also in your rental voucher.

The fuel policy determines how you will pay for the fuel for your rental car and whether you will need to refill the fuel tank before returning the vehicle.

The details of additional drivers are provided directly at the office when picking up the vehicle.

The choice depends on your needs, the type of trip and the number of passengers. However, you don’t have to worry because our search engine will select the best type of vehicle depending on your choice.
