KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Vitoria-Gasteiz
- The big advantage to booking car hire in Vitoria-Gasteiz is that it will give you the freedom to explore the city and the Basque region of Spain at will. You won't be tied down to transport schedules and routes, and you won't have to walk to and from designated stops. You can take day trips to nearby towns like Rioja Alavesa with its celebrated wineries, around 30 miles from Vitoria-Gasteiz. There's also the roughly 6,500-year-old Salt Valley at Añana, about 18.5 miles away.
- Car hire in Vitoria-Gasteiz is readily available at the city's international airport, Vitoria Airport (VIT), also known as Foronda Airport. The kiosks are situated in the small terminal building and you'll spot them easily. However, unless you're flying from London Stansted Airport (STN), you're more likely to land at Bilbao Airport (BIO). Several popular international brands offer car hire here. Head to Level 0 of the terminal building and walk through the underground pedestrian passage to Level 0 of the P1 car park.
- The city used to be notorious for its congestion, but this has been drastically reduced as it has transformed into a "green" city, where around 60% of the residents walk or ride bicycles. Bear this in mind when booking car hire in Vitoria-Gasteiz, as many areas require that you drive quite slowly among these local commuters. This also means that your fellow road users here are generally relaxed, and you'll find driving here to be stress-free.
- Vitoria-Gasteiz is distinctive in that it has designated no-pass-through zones, which you are only allowed to access if you're going somewhere within them. You're not allowed to drive through these areas on your way to other parts of the city. This is enforced by a ring of cameras that read licence plates. While not a major difficulty, you'll also have to master driving on the right instead of the left, unless you hire a manual vehicle.
- Book your rental car in Vitoria-Gasteiz at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Economy rental cars in Vitoria-Gasteiz are around 8% more expensive than other car types, on average

What type of car is recommended for driving in Vitoria-Gasteiz?
Due to the pedestrianised nature of the city and the number of cyclists on its streets, it's best to confine your Vitoria-Gasteiz car hire choice to a vehicle that's as small as possible. With good roads and a relative lack of congestion, you won't need much more than that. The same is true of the roads in the surrounding area, but if you really want to go off the beaten track in rural Basque Country, get an SUV. Also, consider an electric vehicle that's more in tune with the city's environmental approach – EV charging points are plentiful.
