The upmarket town of Jerez de la Frontera (more commonly known as just Jerez) lies in the heart of the beautiful Cádiz province of south-west Spain. This lively place full of Spanish tradition is chiefly known for the traditional Andalusian art of flamenco dancing and cante jondo, a dramatic and evocative style of Gypsy singing. Standing on the site of an old mosque, Jerez Cathedral was built in the 17th century with a rich combination of Gothic, Baroque and Neoclassical elements in its structure, as well as some amazing works by the local artist Francisco de Zurbarán (1598-1664). Most visitors to Jerez are there to explore the wine cellars where the famous sherry is produced. Made from locally-grown white grapes, it was introduced to Spain by the Phoenicians in 1100 BC and is served in a variety of styles from very dry to deliciously sweet. Equally popular is the Royal Andalusian School of the Equestrian Art where regular dressage displays of the magnificent Andalusian horses can be seen. Don't miss the excellent Centro Andaluz de Documentación del Flamenco where visitors can learn all about the various forms of flamenco singing, guitar-playing and dance with films, documents and through the lives of famous flamenco artists. With your car hire in Jerez you'll be able to fully explore this enchanting part of the southern Spanish coastline, including the lovely port city of Cádiz just 20 miles to the south-west.

" It took overtwo hours to get to be served atthe counter. This wasn't the staff members's fault - there was only one of her and she was doing her best. But it took 30 minutes per customer. When it was our turn - after two hours - she found out that our car needed to be filled with petrol. This took another 30 minutes. Then we were given the choice of a huge excess or paying £240 more for proper insurance. So the total bill was more than £900. I'm fed up with being ripped off like this. Why don't your prices include proper insurance? I pay this amount fo insurance for a year! Does any one read these comments? "

" Fantastic all round experience. Only issue is extending the rental period is not possible when you book thru a broker. You either have to pay much higher rate if you extend by a day which I did or you have to return the car and start again from zero. "

" If the cost of zero excess stays low more people will use it to avoid arguments with collection and delivery staff. I have always preferred a zero excess rental "
" Excellent service. Brand new vehicle with easy collection and delivery. Good value for money with zero excess for peace of mind. In recent years this zero excess has become very very expensive but the charge for this during my rental was reasonable. "

" Overall very pleased with the car and the hire process, except there was no joint-inspection of the car at the start, which could have led to unfair charges being applied. "
" The Counter staff member at Jerez airport was helpful and friendly. We were handed the keys at the counter and nobody came with us to the car or gave us a condition sheet of the car, which I thought was odd. When we reached the car we notice that one side had been scratched (with e.g. a key) so we decided to video the state of the car in case there was an issue later. The car was excellent, very new, and we experienced no issues with it throughout the hire. When we returned it at Malaga airport the Drop-Off staff member arrived quickly and was very efficient, but she immediately pointed out the scratch. So I showed her the video and its date, which she accepted as proof. However if I hadn't made the video in the first place, we would have been landed with a bill for pre-damage to the car. So in future a staff member should accompany to the car and inspect it jointly at the start of the hire. "

" I have already provided feedback to this but, 3 points : 1) I had to provide additional information about scratches on the car before leaving Jerez Airport. 2) The computer system was down when I picked up the car so everything had to be done manually. 3) On returning the car there was a notice on the desk saying 'Back in 15 mins' but it did not say when from !

" The original sterling rate was £15.09 for a weeks rental - excellent. "
" Firefly charged a 21.08 Euro service charge in addition to 56.98 Euros for fuel. Why did Autoeurope not tell me this would be applied? On a positive note Firefly refunded the 56.98 fuel cost because I return the car full - they kept the service charge. On final payment they debited my credit card in Pounds Sterling not Euros without asking me. This gave me an inferior exchange rate. "
