Driving in Portugal

Renting with no excess is advisable, and cheaper to pre-pay now, than pay extra insurance, which is an option locally.

However, this does not cover everything, so we advise the purchase of our additional excess cover insurance. This will cover any claim on the damage and theft excess. It also has additional cover damage to windows, underside and tyres.

Around & About in Portugal

Faro Airport is the main starting point for many tourists, who flock to this region. It helps you enjoy the marvellous sunshine, delightful seafood and fine wines, to mention just a few of the delights. However vehicles can be collected from downtown Faro if prefer to relax after your flight.

Porto (or Oporto) is Portugal's second largest city. It is quite industrious and not a tourist destination. But, as they say in Portugal "Porto works".

Get away from the turmoil and take in some stunning scenery, like taking take a cruise up river.

In Lisbon most tourists pickup their wheels at the airport. You can then explore the remote and beautiful areas of the Algarve and southern Portugal. If you are staying a few nights in Lisbon, do make a point of driving to Belem or Sintra, as both are within easy reach.

In Madeira , we can help you save if flying to Funchal Airport. Collect at either the airport or in the town, or have delivered to your hotel or villa.

On the Azores our discounted prices are available on all the main islands, but renting your vehicle at the Ponta Delgada Airport is the usual option. Minivans also tend to be cheaper when booked through these suppliers.

If prefer not to collect you car at, say, Faro Airport, and perhaps you going to Albufeira, to enjoy the delights of the Old Town and The Strip,then it is possible to get your holiday auto in the city, and then after your trip has come to an end. you can leave it at the airport. An extra fee will apply, but this is included in the rental cost shown.

Whatever part of Portugal, Azores or Madeira you are off to, always check here for excellent, discounted holiday auto prices.
