It's 30 miles away and home to a range of intriguing things to see and do. Chapi Theater, Sanctuary of the Virgen de Gracia and Atalaya Castle are just the start.

Question 4

What kind of rental car should I get for Elche?

Accepted Answer

Sure, you can do Elche without a rental car. But with so much to discover here, having one would make your getaway more fun and convenient. If you're eager to head out of the city and into some nature, opt for a rental car with some power. A mid-size or full-size SUV will take you to the surrounding sandy shores in comfort and style. Spending most of your vacation close to the bright lights of the city? An economical, small car is a good choice. Driving through narrow laneways and squeezing into tight parking spaces will be a cinch with one of these.

Question 5

Should I get a luxury rental car in Elche?

Accepted Answer

You'll be glad to know that there's an impressive variety of both economy and luxury rental vehicles on offer in Elche. What you go for depends on how much you're willing to spend and what you plan to do. Specialty and prestige vehicles are hard to beat if you're all about mod cons and comfort. If you want to treat yourself, why not pick up an elite SUV, or perhaps a flashy mid-sized sedan? Alternatively, if you just need a set of wheels to zip around town in as cheaply as possible, stick with a versatile compact vehicle (or something else that won't burn a hole in your pocket).
