Car rental in Girona without a credit card

All-inclusive car rental in Girona

Girona, with its colourful riverfront and walled old town, is the gateway to the northern Costa Brava and the Pyrenees. Many low-cost flights land here, and a car is the natural way to reach the coves, medieval villages and the French border beyond.

Booking the cheapest car in Girona can be a false economy. Budget brokers advertise a low daily rate, then sell you collision cover, theft protection and an excess waiver at the Girona Airport counter — often at a steep markup — while blocking a large deposit on your credit card. Book all-inclusive through DisDou and all of that is already in the price, so the figure you see online is the figure you pay.

What is included in your Girona rental

Your Girona rental includes collision damage waiver (CDW) and theft protection with the excess refunded, plus cover for glass, tyres, undercarriage and roof — the parts most likely to take a knock on Spain's roads. Add unlimited mileage, all local taxes and Girona Airport fees, towing and roadside assistance, a fair like-for-like fuel policy, free cancellation up to one hour before pick-up, and 24/7 English-speaking support, and you have a genuinely worry-free car. For the full breakdown, see what “full coverage” really means.

Rent in Girona without a credit card

No credit card? You can still rent. Choose the No Deposit option during booking and nothing is blocked at the Girona Airport desk — no PIN hassle, no funds frozen for weeks, no high-limit card required. Pay online by debit card, bank transfer or PayPal, complete the online check-in, and simply sign at the counter on arrival. Here is how the deposit normally works and why the No Deposit option removes it.

Picking up your car at Girona Airport (GRO)

Bring your valid driving licence, your passport or ID card, and your booking voucher. With online check-in completed in advance, your time at the desk is short — sign, collect the keys, and drive off.

Driving in Spain

Spain drives on the right. Motorway tolls (peajes) apply on some AP roads, while the Canary and Balearic Islands are toll-free, and you must carry a reflective vest and warning triangle. Low-emission zones (ZBE) now apply in Madrid, Barcelona and other larger cities.

The AP-7 motorway (now toll-free) runs right past Girona, linking the coast, the city and France in minutes. Inland, the roads into the Pyrenees are winding mountain routes — allow extra time.

The best drives from Girona

With unlimited mileage included, Girona is a brilliant base for a road trip. A few favourites:

• The Costa Brava coves. Drive to Begur, Calella de Palafrugell and the white village of Cadaqués for the wildest stretch of coast.
• Figueres and Dalí. The surreal Dalí Theatre-Museum is a short hop north.
• Medieval Besalú and Banyoles. A loop inland to a Romanesque bridge town and a tranquil lake.

Also within easy reach: Figueres, Cadaqués, Besalú, Banyoles, Costa Brava.
