Valencia is a walkable city, but if your feet get tired, don't worry! They have a convenient public transit system with metro/tram/bus lines running throughout the city.
For a quick and budget-friendly ou can choose to purchase a ten-ride card (“Bonometro”). This card costs €8.00 and allows unlimited travel within Zone A. Multiple people can use one card. Once the ten rides are used up, you can reload your old card with another ten rides for €7.00, as you won’t need to pay for the card again. Transferring between lines doesn’t count as an extra ride!

Car rental
Consider if you really need a car: Valencia is a walkable city with great public transportation, so a car might not be necessary. If you plan on exploring the Spanish countryside or nearby towns, then a car becomes more helpful, but buses and trains can sometimes be a better option.
Insurance: Rental car insurance can be expensive, so check your existing car insurance and credit card coverage to see if they provide rental car protection in Spain.
Tolls: Toll roads only cover around 30% of the motorways in Spain, so you will likely be able to get around them. Rental companies often offer toll payment options like prepaid boxes or post-trip billing.
