5 destinations to enjoy your September road trip 

The start of the school year is a perfect time for those who love to travel; the children have already returned to school and we prepare to calmly enjoy the last rays of the summer sun. Here are 5 destinations to enjoy your September getaway.

Ibiza and its beaches

Ibiza is a beautiful island that is always worth the trip, but it can be crowded in summer. Rent your car in Ibiza to explore its coastline and discover the island’s most hidden and beautiful coves: Llentrisca, Olivera, d'Albarca, d'en Serra, Xarraca, Codolar are some of the coves we invite you to discover.

Sevilla and the charm of Southern Spain 

Sevilla is beautiful at any time of the year, though spring and autumn are the best seasons to enjoy the city. In September, Sevilla has very pleasant temperatures that invite you to explore the city, either on foot, or by car. Take note of the places you must visit to enjoy the Andalusian capital: La Giralda, the Cathedral of Sevilla, the Alcazar, Plaza de España, Barrio de Santa Cruz and Triana, among others. You can also visit the María Luisa Park, where you can see its characteristic pigeons and hundreds of multicolored flowers.

Madrid and the Culture 

Madrid is a city that does not stop in summer, in September comes back with renewed energy. This is the perfect time to enjoy a city break and go on a route through the Golden Triangle of Art, located between Paseo del Prado and Parque del Retiro. A walk through the Prado Museum, the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum and the Reina Sofía Museum will not leave you indifferent. In addition, when the school year begins, art galleries are filled with new seasonal collections that may interest you.

A perfect plan to enjoy September in Madrid is to get away to the countryside. Enjoy a hiking route through the Hayedo de Montejo, or go on a trip through the canyons of Hoces del Duratón, where you can find a colony of more than 500 griffon vultures. Complete your rental car driving route by discovering charming villages such as Aranjuez, Sepúlveda, Alcalá de Henares and Patones, located less than two hours from the capital.

Ancient Rome

Who has not imagined to be in an Italian film driving through Italy in a convertible? Its weather is perfect in September, a good time to enjoy your road trip through Tuscany or a driving route through the northern lakes. Rent your car at the Rome airport and drive by theColosseum, the Roman Forums, the Trevi Fountain, Piazza di Spagna, the Trastevere neighborhood, the Vatican or the Sant’Angelo Bridge**, among others to get to know the true Italy.

Beaches of the Algarve

One of Portugal’s best secrets are the beaches of the Algarve. These beaches are just becoming famous; visiting them in September is a perfect plan to take advantage of your trip without the crowds of tourists. Cacela Velha, Barrinha, Vale dos Homens, Arrifana, Zavial, Barranco, Arrifes or Barreta are some of the beaches in the Algarve area where, in addition to sunbathing, you can practice different water sports such as Snorkeling, Kitesurfing, Windsurfing or Paddlesurfing in Portugal.
