Cargini is a car rental company that describes itself as innovative and counts more than 30 years of experience in car rental, tourism and technology. For UK visitors, its Maltese branch is the practical bit: a pick-up office at Malta International Airport in Luqa, so you can arrange a car before you fly and collect it soon after landing.
On VisitMalta.co.uk the business is listed under car hire in Malta. If you are comparing local firms, Aquarius Rent A Car is another option in the same directory.
Where to collect your car
The Malta office is in the Park East Rental Car Park at Malta International Airport, Ħal Luqa. The airport is the arrival point for visitors on flights to Malta from the UK, and having the rental area on site keeps the handover simple after a journey from London or elsewhere in Britain. Our pages on flights from Heathrow and Gatwick flights to Malta cover the journey.
The booking page for the Malta airport location lets you pick the date and time of collection and return, and choose a different drop-off location if you wish. Reservations are made online, and each booking has a reservation number that you can use to look it up again.
Managing your reservation
Cargini's website has a section for existing reservations. With your reservation number you can view the booking, edit it, or cancel it, which is handy if flight times change or your plans shift. The site works in English and shows prices in euros or US dollars, so a UK traveller can follow the booking steps in plain English.
Terms and conditions and payment information are published on the website, and it is sensible to read them before you confirm. A customer support section and a contact form are provided for questions that the information pages do not cover.
An international network
Cargini operates at many airports and ports beyond Malta, including locations in Greece, Cyprus, Portugal, Albania, Croatia, Montenegro, Morocco, Turkey, Jordan, Japan, the United States and Mauritius. Its headquarters are in Athens. That reach matters if you plan to combine Malta with another trip and want to deal with the same company in both places.
The company also runs a franchise network, offering partners a ready-to-go package with operational support, pricing optimisation, revenue growth support, booking channels including online travel agents and business-to-business sales, and advertising and marketing.
Driving in Malta from the UK
British drivers will find one thing familiar: traffic in Malta drives on the left, as in the UK. Malta is small, so even the longest cross-island journey is short by UK standards, but town centres such as Valletta and the old city of Mdina have narrow streets where a compact car is easier to handle. Because Malta uses the euro, it also helps to carry a card you can use abroad for fuel and parking.
Keep your driving licence and passport or identity card with you when you collect the car, and check the terms and conditions on the Cargini website for what the company needs from the main driver. If you are not sure, ask in your enquiry before you travel.
Our Valletta guide explains what to see in the capital, and it is worth reading before you decide whether to drive in or leave the car for a day.
Planning your driving in Malta
A hire car gives you freedom to reach beaches, towns and sights that are awkward to link by bus. Our things to do in Malta page is a good place to start, and the best beaches in Malta guide will help you pick a bay. Check the Malta weather guide too, so that you pack for the month you are travelling, and hotels across Malta helps with a base.
