Where to park in Segovia (avoid €4/hour fees)
Street parking costs €3.50/hour near Plaza Mayor. I’ve paid €15 for 4 hours in the city center twice—never again. Instead, stay at hotels with free parking (see below) or use the Parque de la Catedral lot (€2/hour, 5 minutes from Alcázar). Never park near the aqueduct—it’s a fine zone for illegal stops.

Car rental in Segovia averages €25-€45 per day for compact vehicles during low season (October-March), but spikes to €60+ in summer. In April 2024, I secured a Ford Focus for €32/day with Europcar by booking 90 days ahead—saving €15 versus last-minute rates. Avoid weekend surcharges by picking up on Tuesday mornings.
