Location information for Malta

The Mediterranean paradise of Malta may be one of Europe's smallest countries, but this tiny island nation at the crossroads of Europe and Africa has more than its fair share of ancient history, beautiful beaches, and historic structures. Malta International Airport not only receives daily flights from a variety of European cities, the airport also acts as the main cheap Malta car hire hub. Exploring Malta by cheap car hire is especially recommended as many of the country's attractions are accessible only by car.

Valletta, Malta's largest city located just eight kilometres from the airport, is walkable, walled, and practically surrounded by water. One of the first designated World Heritage cities, Valletta is filled with stunning medieval architecture such as the St James Cavalier, the Casa Rocca Piccola, and St John's Co-Cathedral and Museum. The Upper Barakka Gardens provide the most spectacular view of Valletta's harbour.

Although the 3,000-year-old city of Mdina is just a short drive from Valletta by Malta car hire and worth visiting, only locals are allowed to drive within the city. Malta's strong Catholic influence has made the country more relaxed and tranquil than most of its Mediterranean neighbours, but those searching for lively nightlife are likely to find it at the seaside resort of Saint Julians, not far from Valletta by Malta budget car rental.

On the other hand, those searching an even quieter and more rural atmosphere than what Malta's main island has to offer will easily find it on the nearby island of Gozo, which also boasts one of Malta's finest beaches, Ramla il-Hamra.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is HireCars.co.uk the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

When will I get a confirmation of my booking?
