Travelers who are at least 21 years old and have a driving experience of 1-2 years can order a rental car in Salou. If you plan to travel outside Spain with the rented car (for example, on excursions in France), it is necessary to take out additional insurance. The car is rented with a full tank of gas and must be returned with a full tank.
You need to look for the offices where you can rent a car without a deposit in Salou in advance - there are very few of them. Most often the deposit amount is blocked on the card. Rent a car like Citroen C1 for 8 days will cost 100-120 EUR, Volkswagen Polo - 130-150 EUR, Volkswagen Golf - 190-210 EUR, Peugeot Combi - 200-210 EUR. For "insurance-free" car rental in Salou the price is reduced by 20 EUR on average, but in this case the deposit amount will be blocked on the credit card.
Car rental in Salou can be inexpensive, but do not forget that in Spain there is a huge number of toll roads, the passage on which is allowed only after payment through the terminal. The ticket issued by the device must be kept, otherwise the fare will be calculated from the beginning of the road to the end point regardless of where your car enters it.
Paid parking lots are marked in blue, free parking lots are marked in white. As a rule, on weekends and holidays you can park for free in the blue parking lots. However, this rule does not always work in Salou, especially in the beach area. You can't park in the yellow-colored zones.
Cars parked in violation of Spanish traffic rules (for example, on the sidewalk), within half an hour takes away a tow truck. At the place of the car leave a triangle with a phone number, which can be used to find out which impound lot the car was taken to. It costs 60 EUR to "get" the car out of there. Information about such violations gets into the database of the rental company, and subsequently cheap car rental in Salou for such a client becomes problematic.
