Location information for Portugal

Portugal is best explored by rental car. CarhireSaving has over 158 pick-up locations in Portugal. This means there is always a pick-up location close to your destination.

If you choose Portugal as your holiday destination, it's likely the main reason is the stunning Algarve coast, but Portugal actually has a huge variety to offer the visitor, with interesting cities and beautiful countryside. The country's empirical past means it has some beautiful colonial architecture and fascinating history; all of this and more can be explored with Portugal car hire from major airports.

The capital city, Lisbon, was given a facelift for the World Expo in 1999, re-establishing the beautiful buildings and 16th century architecture the city is famous for. The characterful Baixa and Alfama districts retained their medieval cobbled streets and distinctive tiled walls and are the oldest parts. For panoramas of the city head up to the beautiful Castelo de São Jorge, which sits on a ridge above Lisbon.

For nightlife in Lisbon, the Bairro Alto has everything to offer visitors: great restaurants, vibrant bars, nightclubs and hard-working street hawkers. Or if you fancy some serious retail therapy then make time to visit the Chiado area. For architecture buffs the magnificent Mosteiro dos Jerónimos is a bookmark of Lisbon's colonial past and Manueline architecture. The city also has a good range of museums with historic artworks, coins, and ceramics, and most of Lisbon is easily navigated with cheap car hire in Portugal.

Further north, Porto, where the country's most famous export comes from, is a lovely city with a nice atmosphere, and the wine industry of the area can be explored from here.

If you want to get out into the countryside then the Douro Valley is absolutely classic Portuguese scenery, and northern Costa Verde with its gorgeous and remote coastlines is also a sight to be seen; visiting it is made possible by choosing the right Portugal car rental.

For sun-seekers the Algarve coast is a world-class resort destination. There are still secluded beaches and sleepy little towns despite the overall development. Faro is the centre of the action on the Algarve and still has its ancient city walls, which are interesting, and some decent museums.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is CarhireSaving the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

When will I get a confirmation of my booking?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).
