Thrifty Car Hire in Portugal

Many rental companies require payment by credit card and may not accept debit cards. If you only have a debit card, check the rental company's payment policies in advance and look for suitable options.

When hiring a car with Thrifty in Portugal, you'll find numerous locations available. With cities across Portugal countries, you'll always have plenty of options for where to start your journey.

Take a moment to familiarize yourself with the vehicle's controls and features before driving off. Knowing how to operate essentials like headlights, wipers, and navigation systems can enhance safety and convenience.

Before returning the vehicle, clarify the return procedures with the rental company. Knowing where to drop off the car and any required inspections can streamline the process.

If you have a specific vehicle in mind, opt for rentals that guarantee your chosen car type. This ensures that you receive the vehicle you expect, rather than being offered an alternative.

Choosing the right mileage and fuel policy can make a big difference. Opt for a full-to-full fuel policy to avoid refuelling before your journey. If you're planning a long road trip, select a deal with unlimited mileage to prevent unexpected charges. Begin your search and check 'Unlimited mileage' under 'Mileagae Policies'.

Be aware that some rental companies impose age restrictions or additional fees for drivers under 25. Make sure to check the company’s age policy when booking.

When you choose prepaid Thrifty car hires in Portugal, remember that you can cancel your reservation at no cost. You can also modify your booking, such as extending the car duration, either through the booking website or by contacting customer care directly.
