Car rental at Lanzarote Airport – worth it or not?

[ThreadHunter]

Hello! I’ll be spending a week in Lanzarote and I’m debating whether I should rent a car right at the airport or just rely on public transport/taxis. I like the idea of exploring freely, but I don’t want to overspend either. Some friends told me parking can be tricky in certain areas, while others swear that a car is essential. Has anyone tried both options? Would love some first-hand advice before I decide.

I had the same dilemma last spring. At first, I thought I’d save money and just use buses, but after two days I realized I was missing out on many hidden beaches and small towns. Renting a car was a game-changer. The airport has plenty of rental options, and this site helped me a lot: https://www.lanzaroteairport.info/ — it offers practical Lanzarote airport information on car rental, required documents, and tips for driving there. Parking wasn’t as bad as I feared, except in the center of Arrecife during peak hours. Honestly, the freedom was worth every cent.

Great insight, thanks! Looks like I’ll go with a rental after all.
