Who a standard 7-seater is for
If your group is too big for an ordinary saloon but you do not want a minibus, a standard 7-seater is a sensible middle ground. Families with several children, two couples sharing a holiday or three generations travelling together usually find one roomy car easier than two smaller ones. You keep the group together, share the driving and only need one parking space at the end of the day.
For 7-seater car hire in Alicante we have two models in this class: the Toyota Verso 7 and the Volkswagen Touran. Both are practical people carriers that suit everyday family travel.
Trips worth making from Alicante
Alicante is a good base for exploring the Costa Blanca. With your own car you can leave when it suits you instead of following bus timetables. A few ideas:
- Elche, a short drive inland, known for its palm grove, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
- Guadalest, a mountain village with a castle and a reservoir below, reached by a scenic road.
- Altea and Calpe, further up the coast, where the Peñón de Ifach rock is the local landmark.
- Villajoyosa, with its brightly painted houses along the seafront.
In the city itself, Santa Bárbara Castle and the Explanada promenade are easy to visit on foot, so you may want the car mainly for your days out.
Practical tips before you book
Start by counting people and bags honestly. In most 7-seaters the boot gets much smaller when all three rows are in use, so a group of seven with large suitcases needs some planning. Tell us how many of you are travelling and we can talk through which model suits you better.
Book early if you travel in summer or around public holidays, as larger cars tend to go first. Parts of Alicante’s old town also have narrow streets, so check in advance where you will leave the car near your accommodation.
