Salou Travel Forum

First i d like to thank Belsaita and Le bod for your help regarding car rental from port aventura to bcn

I d like to tell you that i ve checked out a lot of options and found one which is very suitable for my case. europcar has got a pickup point at el paso hotel, close enough to portaventura hotel. what do you think of this?

some other companies make u pay for at least 3 days if you re changing pick up and return point - so they re out of question.

we r going to have at least 4 luggages, so it's probably a must to have a luggage rack, which adds about 50 euro for the rent, in our case 50 euro for just one day ( since we ll only be hiring d car for 1 day), which seems a lot! that makes it quite expensive doesn't it? According to Europcar.com a Peugeot partner only has space for 2 luggages. so to include luggage rack (and infant car seat) its around 132 euro.

In case of Avis and Hertz, they both have pick up points in Terragona, which suits us fine. but they do not seem to have a possibility of a luggage rack. So, to have space for suitcases we have to opt for the larger ones like Van Opel Zafira (123euro) or Ford focus Wagon (145.49). Those prices are for a day. Sometimes i wonder again whether for a little more a taxi wouldnt be a better choice,,, ?

Try doyouspain.com they are the cheapest deals I've found. You do pay for 3 days but it may still work out cheaper. Insist on bringing the car back with a full tank and not empty as they prefer as this will add considerably to the cost.
Good thing about this site is that you pay nothing till you pick up your car.

We once went from Salou to barcelona BCN with Touchdown Tours. All the bar owners know the owner and he took my family of 6 to the airport last minute, no bother. Very friendly English driver! They quoted us 150€ but if theres 4 of you they might have a different deal.
remember tolls to BCN are 20€. petrol will be about 20€ again.
