Good to know

  • You usually have to be at least 21 years old to rent a vehicle in Spain. Being younger doesn't always disqualify you — just expect some extra fees or restrictions. Check the suppliers' terms and conditions before you book.

  • Add a car seat to your Badajoz car hire booking if you're travelling with small kids. Requirements change from one location to another, but using a child seat suited to their size, age and weight is always the safest option.

  • Bring the right documents and save time at pick-up. You'll generally need your physical driver's licence (no copies) and another form of photo ID. Also keep a credit card handy to cover the required excess. If there's anything extra, it'll be listed in your booking.

  • If you haven't driven before in Spain, remember that traffic here sticks to the right side of the road.

  • Make sure you stay within the local speed limits. Usually that's around 20kph in urban areas and 110kph or so on highways, unless signed otherwise.

  • A blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit of 0.05% applies in Spain. The most reliable way to be safe to drive is to avoid drinking completely.

  • Around 9am is one of the busiest times for traffic around this destination. Try to avoid busy hours generally for a smoother drive.

  • The euro (EUR) is the currency you'll be using for day-to-day purchases and activities. Pay with your card where you can, but have some cash ready for places that don't accept electronic payment.
