10 tips to save on your car hire around Sao Martinho do Porto Beach

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by specifying vehicle type and features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the perfect match for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to secure your vehicle well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you are likely to benefit from lower rates and better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals offer a balanced option, combining cost-effectiveness, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—may not be available to them. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to making a booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the most advantageous option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fuel options, which are acceptable as well; just ensure you return the vehicle empty in that scenario.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, though the added convenience might justify the extra cost.
  • Know your payment options: Many car hire companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind should anything unexpected occur during your trip. It's easy to add car hire insurance while booking through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning extensive road trips, look for rentals offering unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's licence is essential for renting a car.
