Car hire with Cicar

Cicar (Canary Islands Car) is far more than a car hire company: in the Canary Islands it is practically an institution. It began as a Canarian family business and has grown without losing that character, with a presence on every island in the archipelago and a very close relationship with the local community. It is no coincidence that many residents, not just tourists, choose it when they need a car: they know it, they trust it and they know exactly what to expect.
Its hallmark is transparency. For years Cicar has championed a no-surprises pricing policy: what you book is what you pay, with no excess on its standard cover and no hard sell at the desk. For drivers, that translates into peace of mind: you collect the car, you return it, and there is no small print lying in wait. In an industry rife with unexpected extras, that way of working explains its remarkable customer loyalty.

- A modern, well-kept fleet, renewed frequently, with practical models for island roads: from nippy runabouts to family cars and automatics.
- A pressure-free desk: pick-up is usually quick and you will not face the usual hard sell on extra cover, because the rate already includes protection with no excess.
- Friendly, Spanish-speaking service from local teams who know their island well and are happy to recommend roads and spots worth visiting.
- A simple, drama-free return: staff check the car with you and, barring clear negligence, there are no surprise charges after you hand back the keys.
At Gavendo we have worked with Cicar for years and negotiate rates directly to offer you highly competitive terms. Every booking is confirmed by a member of our team, not an algorithm, and you can cancel free of charge up to 72 hours before pick-up. If any question arises before or during your trip, we are on hand in Spanish, French, English or Portuguese.
