How to rent a car on Canary IslandsHow to rent a car on Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura, Lanzarote, La Palma, La Gomera – on all Canary Islands

There are many car rental companies both international and local on the Canary Islands. We found the second option better for us. Local car rental companies – Cicar or Plus Car.

We rented a car from both of them and can share the pros and cons of each company.

Features and benefits of Local companies Cicar and Plus Car as compared to international giants (Sixt, Avis…):

1) Comprehensive insurance included. You don’t have to worry about anything – without additional payment. The condition of the car being returned is not the point of interest for the company. We took a car from the parking site with terrible scratches and returned the same, sometimes having new ones. No problem!

It’s next to perfect. Especially in our situation with continuous booking of 6 cars successively. Therefore, we would not opt for international companies.

3) Complete trust. The cars sometimes are rented with full or half-full tank of fuel and we are asked to return it with the same volume. Some Cicar offices asked for additional payment, if we gave back half-full tank of fuel. But in most cases we just had to return it with the same quantity of liters. It’s also very convenient.
