Arriving in Burgos often means a pause in the journey, not the end of it. The wider region of Castile and León still waits beyond the city, and Enterprise offers car hire or van hire to help you carry on.
Burgos sits at the edge of Castile and León's high plateau, where the Arlanzón river cuts through a city shaped by trade and pilgrimage. This is a proper urban centre, not a stopover town, home to around 177,000 people and a compact, walkable old quarter. The Gothic cathedral rises above the rooftops, one of the clearest signs of the city's medieval wealth. The Plaza Mayor still works as the everyday meeting point it has been for centuries. Beyond the old streets, Burgos opens into wider avenues, a university district and, further out, the flat farmland that spreads across the province.
Car rental in Burgos suits anyone planning to keep moving rather than settle in one place. An automatic car or small SUV covers most of what you'll need. The city works as a natural base for reaching Valladolid, Vitoria-Gasteiz or the Rioja wine towns further east. All three make realistic outings once you're behind the wheel. For couples or small groups touring the region, a comfortable saloon or compact SUV covers most needs. It's rarely worth taking more car than you actually require.
Renting a van in Burgos tends to suit larger groups, people carrying equipment, or anyone covering several towns in one trip. A minivan or 7-seater people carrier suits families splitting the driving across a few days. A small van handles the load if you're relocating or collecting goods from villages across the province. For bulkier jobs, a large van or Luton van gives you space that Burgos itself, with its narrower old town streets, doesn't always offer.
The Atapuerca archaeological sites sit just outside the city and rank among the most important prehistoric locations in Europe. Fossil remains found here date back hundreds of thousands of years. Guided visits take small groups through the excavation trenches and explain how the finds reshaped ideas about early human life on the continent. Further exhibits on the discoveries can be seen back in Burgos itself. Covarrubias, a small medieval town, is known as one of the birthplaces of Castile. Half-timbered houses, an old defensive tower and a collegiate church line its arcaded main square, worth a slow wander. Further south, the monastery at Santo Domingo de Silos draws visitors for its Romanesque cloister, carved with scenes that have survived nearly a thousand years. Its resident monks still sing Gregorian chant daily, a rare and genuinely moving thing to witness in person.
Beyond Burgos, the landscape opens into rolling wheat country and quiet river valleys that reward slower travel. Distances between towns can look shorter on a map than they feel on the road. Having your own vehicle turns a rushed itinerary into one that suits the slower pace of rural Castile.
The price per additional driver is 15.00 EUR per day, with a 10 day maximum at 150.00 EUR.
If returning a vehicle outside the opening hours, please park the vehicle in a safe location next to the branch. Lock the vehicle and place the keys in the drop box located near the entrance. Please ensure you have gathered all personal belongings before leaving. The renter’s responsibility for the vehicle and rental charges end once an employee inspects the vehicle the next business day

If you purchase Damage Waiver from us (or if DW is included in your rate), your liability to us as a result of damage to, loss and/or theft of the vehicle will be reduced to an excess amount for each incident. Damage Waiver is not an insurance product. Some damages will be excluded and your conduct during the rental may affect the protection available under Damage Waiver (see Exclusions section).

1500.00 EUR for Mini and Economy vehicles.
1700.00 EUR for Compact Cars and SUVs, Intermediate Cars and Intermediate MPVs
1900.00 EUR for Compact Elite, Compact Convertible, Intermediate SUVs, Standard Cars, SUVs and Standard MPVs.

Purchasing Damage Waiver on its own will only reduce your liability, if you need to reduce your excess to zero you must also purchase Excess Protection.
Before purchasing DW, you may wish to check if your personal coverage is adequate to cover your liability as a result of damage, theft, and/or loss of the vehicle (including loss of revenue, administration fees, diminishment of value and any towing, storage or impound fees). If you decline Damage Waiver, you will be required to pay these charges and, where applicable, seek compensation from your carrier.
A copy of our complaint process and the official complaint form is available free of charge upon request at any Enterprise rental branch and/or at Enterprise's registered office, as listed in the Rental Agreement.
Renters wishing to discuss or dispute any matters concerning damage to the rental vehicle may contact our damage recovery department. Please email es.dru@ehi.com or call 00 34 917821011.
All rentals where the vehicle is not returned to the same location as it is collected from (whether scheduled or unscheduled) will be subject to a one way fee. The one way fee varies based on car category, location and pick up date. If you have reserved a one-way rental, this fee is listed in the reservation details and/or the Summary. If unscheduled, this fee will be listed on your rental invoice.
"If you purchase Excess Protection (EP) and have also purchased Damage Waiver, any applicable Damage Waiver excess will be reduced to zero on all vehicles. If you purchase EP but not DW, you will remain liable for all losses as a result of loss, theft or damage to the vehicle above the amount indicated in the Rental Agreement, up to the full market value of the vehicle. If you decline EP but have purchased DW (or DW is included in your rate), you will be required to pay any applicable DW excess. Some damages will be excluded and your conduct during the rental may affect the protection available under EP (see Exclusions section).
Excess Protection in not an insurance product and before purchasing it, you may wish to check if your personal coverage is adequate to cover damages and losses, including but not limited to damage, theft, loss of revenue, administration fees, diminishment of value and any towing, storage or impound fees. If you decline EP but have purchased DW (or DW is included in your rate), you will be required to pay any applicable DW excess and seek compensation from your carrier."

No unused or excess charge will be refunded.

All drivers must present:
(1) Valid driving licence held for a minimum of one (1) year [or two 2 years if hiring in the Canary Islands].
- Digital driving licences will only be accepted if issued by a Member State of the European Union and the hire originates from that Member State.
- Unless the driving licence has been issued by the UK or a Member State of the European Union (in standard format):
• If the licence is in a language other than that of the country in which you are renting, and the alphabet used is an extended Latin-based alphabet, an International Driving Permit is recommended, but not required, for translation purposes, in addition to the home country licence.
• If the home country licence is in a language other than that of the country in which you are renting, and the alphabet used is not an extended Latin-based alphabet (i.e. the alphabet used is Cyrillic, Japanese, Arabic, etc.), an International Driving Permit is required.
• If an International Driving Permit is required and cannot be obtained in the home country, another professional, type-written translation may be substituted. In either case, the home country licence must also be presented.
• Customers may not rent a vehicle solely with the International Driving Permit. The International Driving Permit is an official translation of the individual's home country licence and is not considered a licence, nor is it considered valid identification.
- To avoid the risk of fines, renters are advised to check whether local authorities require foreign drivers to carry an International Driving Permit.
(2) Valid, unexpired passport or identity card.
Additionally, renters visiting Spain from abroad must be able to provide, on request:
(3) Contact details in their home country (i.e., work or home address) and in Spain, as well as travel documents, such as plane or train tickets, boarding passes, hotel reservations or accommodation vouchers etc.

Please note that we reserve the right to request additional proof of identity and/or to conduct further identification checks if necessary, which may include identity checks with an external organisation.
Third party liability insurance is mandatory and covers the driver and the owner for third party claims against him/her for damage caused by the hire vehicle. Third party insurance is included in the rate. Cover is limited to 135 million euros.
