Car hire at Lanzarote Airport
Lanzarote Airport (IATA: ACE, OACI: GCRR) is located 5 kilometres from Arrecife. Most of the flights connect Lanzarote with European airports. Great Britain and Germany make up more than 60 percent of the international air traffic; the national connections are mainly to Gran Canaria, Madrid-Barajas and Tenerife North. Book your rental car in terminal, at Lanzarote airport, and choose between Hertz or Thrifty branded cars.

Last routes
From Arrecife to Timanfaya National Park. Southwest Route on Lanzarote
An island tour by car is great fun. Compared with the other islands of the Canary Archipelago Lanzarote is not too big and can easily be explored by car. The advantages are obvious: short distances and many possible stations to visit.
Today we would like to propose to you an easy and beautiful round trip by car. There are different points of departure. We can start from Arrecife or from Puerto del Carmen which has a wide range of hotel accommodations for travellers. Another option would be to start from the airport directly after your arrival at Lanzarote. The only requirement is to begin the excursion in the morning; without having to get up particularly early.
Assuming that you already got your Rent a Car in Lanzarte Airport with Hertz, Thrifty or with Dollar, we are glad to see that you are ready to explore and experience Lanzarote.
Our southwest route covers a distance of 80 km. The route is even shorter if you start from Puerto del Carmen or from the airport. However, we depart from Arrecife. From there we take the LZ-2 and then drive onto the LZ-501.
Fuerteventura. A Tour through the centre and the south of the Island
Fuerteventura is synonymous with beaches. However, the beaches here are not the kind of beaches you might know from anywhere. The miles of beaches on Fuerteventura convey the feeling of never wanting to end.
Perhaps because on Fuerteventura it is so easy to find one of those dream beaches on your own, we would like to offer you a route through the lesser-known centre of Fuerteventura. We will still see beaches; there is no other way on Fuerteventura. Our departure point is right at the beach. You might want to pay this one a short visit before we start our route through the island.
You have probably already rented your Rent a car Airport Fuerteventura with Hertz or Thrifty, or in our airport office with Dollar brand. Otherwise, you have the option of renting a car at our office in Caleta de Fuste, from where we will start.
Las Palmas – Cruz de Tejeda. North-East Route
Have you ever read one of the car routes suggested by us at Proa Rent a Car? Maybe you have already done one of our travel routes with your rental car. In that case, you might have noticed that our routes are quite demanding and ambitious. We believe that those who rent a car being on holiday want to experience the destination in detail. It is easier to skip one sight or two on a route (for convenience or for any other reason) than to start a round trip and end up missing something. So today, we are going to propose another itinerary on Gran Canaria. It is demanding again. Not because of the great distances, but because of the number of stops.
We always try to include an excursion for wine lovers. The reason is easy: Spain is a country with an important wine culture. Doing wine tastings from different regions, is the perfect way to get to know the country and its people.
So let us start our route on Gran Canaria.
On other islands, linear car routes might be better (on Mallorca, for example, because of the star-shaped road network or on Tenerife because of its elongated shape). In Gran Canaria, however, it is ideal to make a round trip in order to have the opportunity to discover the island in all its diversity.
Do you already have a rental car in Gran Canaria ? You could either go to our Hertz / Thrifty counter at Las Palmas airport or to our Dollar office near the airport; or rent it directly in the city of Las Palmas in our Hertz or Thrifty office.
Our northeast route over this Canary Island is approximately 95 km long if you stick to the short version; if you want to enjoy the full route (10km“bonus pack”) it is a 105 km route. We will explain the two variants to you later.
From Las Palmas, we drive on the GC-23. Then we take the GC-3, the GC-4 and the GC-802.
