Cheap Dollar Car Rental in Porto

If you plan to share driving, check if the rental company allows a second driver and whether there are additional fees. Some companies offer free second driver options under certain conditions.

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.

Research fuel prices in the area where you'll return the vehicle. Filling up at a local station may be cheaper than paying for fuel through the rental company, especially if they charge higher rates.

When renting a car, understand the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy means you return the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' means you return it with the same level of fuel. Full-to-Full is often more cost-effective.

Some zones may have driving limitations; make sure you’re aware of them.

Always keep your rental agreement, identification, and insurance information easily accessible during your rental period. This can help resolve any issues quickly.

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Porto, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70

Using a GPS or navigation app can help you avoid traffic jams and find efficient routes.
