Cheap Car Hire in Lisbon
If you plan to remain within the city, then car hire in Lisbon is not really advisable. Traffic volumes are high and it is generally stressful to drive inside the city centre. However, Lisbon car hire provides an ideal method of exploring the outlying areas, and, as such, is fantastic for those who have a wider destination in mind.
Just thirty minutes outside of Lisbon by car is the beautiful UNESCO World Heritage Site of Sintra. Park in one of the lower car parks and walk up into the town - you won't be disappointed by its spectacular setting, its royal palace or its ruins of a Moorish Castle and 19th century palace. You could also use your car hire to take you to Praia das Maçãs, a small seaside resort that is unexpectedly calm and peaceful. A car rental also gives you access to Azeitão, a small region that contains a series of pretty villages and is also close to the Arrábida Nature Park. Whatever you decide to do and wherever you go, you will find that your Lisbon car hire will add a wonderful extra dimension to your holiday. You can also visit the beaches at Cas cais and Estoril - both make ideal day trips from Lisbon itself.
The best way to find cheap car hire in Lisbon is to book online in advance after comparing prices. An airport pickup offers the freedom of a hire car from the very beginning of your stay, as well as easy transfer to your resort or hotel.
