When you have arrived on your flight to BIO, collect your luggage from the baggage claim and then exit the security area. You'll see ample signage to take you to the escalator to go level down to the rental car area. Walk down the corridor and turn left at the end of the hall and you will see our counter on the right-hand side.

Explore Bilbao with your car rental​

One of the highlights for visitors traveling to Bilbao is to make the trip to Plaza Nueva, a beautiful historic town square. Here you will find several bars and restaurants, and it makes a great place to people-watch for an afternoon. From there, make the short drive just to the north of the city center to the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao. Not only is this a recommended place to see amazing works of art, but the architecture of the building itself and the location on the river is quite amazing.

We found ourselves without a rental car due to a last-minute cancellation from another company, but the SIXT representative went above and beyond to help us. Even at 22:45, just before closing, she was incredibly friendly, professional, and eager to assist—something truly rare and appreciated. Her exceptional service and warm smile made all the difference that night. Unfortunately, I don’t remember her name, but I want to extend a huge thank you for her kindness and support. It was especially meaningful on December 26th, during the busy festive season. Your help was highly appreciated!

Good to know when renting at Bilbao Airport

Can I return the rental car after closing time at Bilbao Airport?

Yes, out-of-hours returns are available at Bilbao Airport. Park in the SIXT return area, complete your check-out on the SIXT app, and leave your keys in the drop box. Don't forget to take photos of the car beforehand, and make sure to return on time to avoid any extra charges!

What is the expected deposit amount, and how will the funds be held?

The deposit amount depends on your chosen vehicle category and is pre-authorized on your credit or debit card at pick-up — meaning the funds are temporarily held, not charged, and released at the end of your rental. For the exact amount applicable to your booking, check our car rental information page since it depends on the destination.

Is it possible to rent a car on short notice at Bilbao Airport?

Yes, last-minute bookings are possible with SIXT. While we always recommend booking in advance to secure your preferred vehicle category, we do our best to accommodate short-notice rentals based on availability. Just head to our website or app to check what's available at Bilbao Airport.

To rent a car with SIXT at Bilbao Airport you need to be at least 18 with a valid license. Some car categories have a higher minimum rental age, and an underage driver fee may apply.
