Hertz Car Rental in Valencia
The city of Valencia stands on the east coast of Spain, and is regarded as a major cargo and passenger port on the Mediterranean. Perhaps because of this, if you rent a car in Valencia you’ll find there are good road links allowing you to travel around the area, including the rural region of La Huerta inland, the sand dunes of Albufera National Park to the south and the woods and hills of Sierra Calderona to the north. You’ll find Valencia itself is a major modern city but you can avoid any potential traffic by using the AP7 motorway that loops round the western edges.
Valencia combines the roles of a regional centre, commercial port and tourist resort. You’ll find there are two miles of golden sand beaches and a charming palm-fringed promenade along the city’s Paseo Maritimo waterfront. If you have a rental car in Valencia it’s easy to explore this area and drive onto the Royal Marina, where you can see millionaires super-yachts from the pavement cafes and bars. A short drive inland you’ll find Valencia’s Old Quarter, including the cathedral, covered market and ornately carved 15thcentury silk market, the Llotja de la Seda. Elsewhere look out for the City of Arts and Sciences, an exciting modern complex of museums, attractions and businesses.
