Tips for car rental

Compare prices. Comparing prices across rental companies helps you uncover better deals and ensures you find a vehicle that matches your budget and travel needs perfectly.

Book early to secure availability. Don’t wait until the last minute to book your car. Early reservations often mean snagging lower rates and having access to a broader range of vehicles, especially during Portugal’s busy travel seasons when demand spikes.

Opt for a full-to-full fuel policy. A full-to-full fuel policy is your wallet’s best friend. Pay only for what you use by refueling at local gas stations, which are often significantly cheaper than the rates charged by rental companies.

Inspect the car before driving off. Always check for scratches, dents, or other damage before you leave the lot. Document any issues with photos or videos to avoid unexpected charges when you return the car, ensuring a worry-free rental experience.

Understand your insurance coverage. Take time to review the insurance details offered by the rental company and compare them with your policy. Comprehensive coverage can protect you against theft, accidental damages, or other unexpected costs while traveling.
