The wedding is taking place in El Palmar, province of Cádiz, Andalusia (Southern Spain).

The closest airports you can fly to are Seville and Jerez de la Frontera.

Unfortunately, there is no reliable public transport to go from neither of these airports to our location. Our advice is that you hire a car (see “Hiring a car“).

We will try our best to facilitate car sharing for those who are arriving at/leaving from the same airport on the same dates. For this and for 500 other reasons we won’t list here, it is important that you fill in your RSVP form.

Important information to remember about hiring a car:

• in most cases, the company requires a credit card to pay for your hire car (and won’t accept a debit card). To our knowledge, Goldcar is the only company that accepts payment by debit card;
• in most cases, the holder of the credit card that was used to make the payment is the only person legally allowed to drive the car. Additional drivers may be added, but this will incur in an increase of the price per day;
• to avoid a huge amount of money being “blocked” on your credit card (this could be up to €2,000), we recommend you buy insurance upfront which includes the elimination of the excess;
• a deposit for fuel costs may be blocked on your card upon collection of the car, according to your rental conditions;
• all driving licences issued in the EU (including UK licences) are valid to hire a car in Spain.
