Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Barcelona car reservation?
There are always times when even our best-laid plans get upended. That's why we give your money back on many prepaid reservations if you let us know at least six hours ahead of picking up the car. Remember to double-check the policy — in some cases it's not available. Can't find anything there? Our Customer Service Portal is always available to help.
What types of cars can I rent in Barcelona?
Mini cars, mid-size rides, premium SUVs ... Pick up the keys to just about any kind of vehicle you like! Economy is the leading rental vehicle category in Barcelona. Zippy, with good mileage and easy to park, these rides make exploring busy city streets a dream. Maybe the best part? They're affordable. That means you'll have more money to splash on other things, like discovering as much of this exciting destination as possible.
Where can I go on a road trip from Barcelona?
Barcelona is full of adventures, but don't limit yourself to one place. Arrange a set of wheels and hit the open road to see what else awaits in the wider area. Here are a few places to choose from:

  • You'll find Tiradentes Square and many other intriguing sights in Ouro Preto. From Barcelona, it's 88 kilometres away.
  • Your next stop? Consider Divinopolis, which is around 64 kilometres away. Shopping Pátio Divinópolis is one local draw card you shouldn't miss.
  • Christ the Redeemer is around 338 kilometres from Barcelona and is one of the region's most beautiful nature spots. Pack a picnic lunch and enjoy the fresh air.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Barcelona with Expedia?
Expedia makes it quick and easy to compare prices, offers and rental companies, and to check customer ratings. Bundle your Barcelona car rental with hotel or flight bookings and you'll make even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Barcelona?
Barcelona requires drivers to be at least 21 before they can rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect a surcharge and some restrictions on choice. Many outlets impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the standard car rental rate. This helps cover the extra risk of accident or damage. While many car classes (like mid-size and compact) are available to young renters, restrictions generally apply to specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Barcelona?
Renting a car in Barcelona is a breeze. Generally, all you'll need is a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name. Once you've settled on your favourite set of wheels, read the terms and conditions to ensure there are no extra requirements before pickup.
What side of the road do you drive on in Barcelona?
Traffic drives on the right and passes on the left in Brazil — the same as in the States. Motoring around Barcelona won't be exactly like home, though. You should familiarise yourself with the local road rules.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Barcelona?
Whether you plan to stop in Barcelona or journey beyond, it's easy to book a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip dates and pick-up/drop-off locations and we'll help you find cheap long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Barcelona car rental if I am younger than 25?
The ability to rent a vehicle if you are under 25 years old in Barcelona often depends on the rental company you choose. Some places apply a surcharge for customers aged between 21 and 24 years, but others may not have any extra fees for this age bracket. Ensure you go through the terms and conditions of your chosen rental dealer to escape extra charges when picking up your keys.
