17 Car Rental Brands in Porto, Portugal

Nos sentimos estafados. Al recoger el coche nos dijeron que había que pagar un depósito de 150€. Además, al no estar la tarjeta de crédito a nombre del conductor, tuvimos que pagar otro precio distinto a lo que se nos dijo por internet.

Nous n'avions pas remarqué que la réservation était prévue pour 12h et notre vol nous a fait arriver tôt le matin. La voiture pas prête et bien sûr pas d'autre voiture de disponible. Le vendeur nous a proposé une gamme au dessus entre 150-250€ (la blaque !). J'ai dû faire appel au responsable pour lui expliquer la situation : nous devions absolument être en fin de matinée à l'hôpital car maman ayant eu un AVC les visites n'ont lieu que l'après-midi. Si nous devions attendre jusqu'à 12h pour avoir la voiture, nous ne serions jamais arrivé à l'heure pour les visites. Bref, heureusement que le responsable était là car le vendeur au guichet n'a pas eu du coeur, rien, neutre et il nous a même dit "ce n'est pas une raison valable"... Ah bon et c'est quoi d'autre de raison valable alors si ce n'est l'urgence d'aller voir sa mère à l'hôpital ? Bref, service pitoyable. Plus jamais Hertz à Porto en tous cas !

This was my first time using this rental company and also my first time renting an electric car. Overall, I was not satisfied with the service. Charging the car in Portugal was very inconvenient, and the rental company told me I needed to download a charging app.

The car is quite good, relatively new, but the service is problematic. Although their attitude in person was decent, I still haven't received the bill. The deposit refund is slow, charges are not transparent, and local insurance is forced upon you. Even though I refueled the car when returning it, the staff said the deposit would be returned within 48 hours, but I haven't even seen the bill yet, making it impossible to get reimbursed.

Process very smooth and fast especially drop off but need to spend more time to explain with more clarity charges and payments taken not clearly explained to me. CS not very accommodating if you dont book directly with company,wanted to extend my rental period but within 24 hour period but wouldnt do it and would charge a penalty and another full days charge. Took payment for toll and fuel deposit immediately when could have taken a pre authorisation as with the insurance.

Car had warning lights come on almost immediately, forcing us to bring the first car back to Europecar. Both cars had extensive exterior damage (scratches, small dents, pieces broken off) that had to be documented before leaving the location. Second car was missing the cargo cover that hides contents of rear area. The counter person at Europecar used many "scare tactics" to try to persuade me to buy their insurance even though I had already bought insurance through Easyrentcars.

Long wait to receive car. No option to check for damage yourself. Upsold at every opportunity. Lots of hidden fees and high taxes. Overcharged in return. Overcharged for additional driver refueling and an extra day. Manager acknowledged mistakes and no resolution has been met. Terrible experience.

Unlike my experiences in Spain or previous rentals, at the Porto ALAMO branch, it's self-service for the rental process. It was my first time doing it! I had to figure out how to fill out the forms myself and asked the staff for help when I didn't understand something. After about half an hour of effort, I finally completed the rental process.

The car was ideal. A few dents, but to be expected. They did not try to sell excess insurance! This was a real bonus as I was expecting them to push us to buy excess, but they did not which was a real bonus. Staff were super friendly and helpful. I will use them again. The only downside was the droop off. We literally had to leave it by the side of the road outside the depot and drop the keys in a safe box. Not a problem really, but a little uncomfortable just leaving it in a public place. Otherwise, spot on.

Nous avons réserver notre véhicule sur internet, donc très facile et prix très abordable (pour Porto Portugal). Cependant à notre arrive au guichet, la dame nous a proposé une assurance que nous avons refusé (l'ayant déjà sur ma cb) elle nous a donc donné une voiture en très mauvais état, avec des croix partout sur l'état des lieux, et en nous disant bon courage!! Bref elle se foutait de nous. Nous avons alors entamé un processus de négociation pour pouvoir enfin au bout de 3/4 d'heures avoir une voiture digne de ce nom!!

OK Rentacar was good value, though still more expensive than last year at same time of year. Our Renault Captur wasn’t as smooth or nice to drive as other cars I’ve rented - drives like its really heavy and the gear box isn’t very easy. The car’s windscreen was dirty inside the car. There was also no screen wash which was really annoying and quite unsafe driving down the motorway, unable to wash smears off the windscreen. Attitude of counter staff was also very transactional - short and quite unfriendly.

Completely dishonest. There was a scratch on the rim, can't say for sure it was me or if it already was there, and they were going to charge me over 500 euros. It was explained to me that because the car had a sport package, I just wanted a basic cheap car, the rim was expensive. Not believing the employee I asked to see the breakdown of the cost, all of a sudden the price was 200 euros plus a bunch of hidden fees, such as a 60 euro administration fee?! well this is happening, he is talking in Portuguese to his co-worker and I can not understand what they are talking about. I really feel like I got swindled. DO NOT use - there are a lot of different car rental companies that you can use

Originally Hertz (on behalf of Thrifty) tried to give us a car much smaller than we paid for. After complaining we were given a larger car. The customer service person was very pushy with an insurance sale (an extra 120 euros we were not expecting) despite the fact we had bought insurance from you in advance. The cs person did not exlain anything to do with the car - where lights were, indicators etc as is normal. The language of the dashboard was left in German which was very confusing. A poor experience.
