Most people like to travel around and take their time when visiting places and car hire is the best way to do this. Malaga is a very accessible place and with the airport just 8 kilometres west of the city, it will not take you long to get your holiday underway (after all, there is nothing worse than having to travel for hours when you arrive at your destination). It is advisable to hire your car before you arrive, this mainly because people panic buy and end up with either a bad deal or a deal that they do not fully understand, i.e. what they are covered for etc.
There are many options to choose from when booking cheap car hire, you will no doubt get bombarded with offers from local rental companies but, as mentioned before, buying before you go is the best way to ensure you find the best deal and also to ensure you understand what you are covered for. Remember, you must produce a valid driving license and a copy is not acceptable and any other drivers that may drive the rental car will have to be included on the policy.
