How to Book

    Portfolio offers car hire in Portugal based on the three main airports at Porto, Lisbon and Faro. The minimum rental at each location is 3 days and if you book 4 days or more you can collect your car at one airport and return it to either of the other two at no extra charge. This makes our car hire in Portugal ideal for those planning to tour the country from north to south, starting Costa Verde and ending Algarve, or arriving Faro and leaving Lisbon.

    Our car hire in Portugal assures you of excellent standards of service and reliability. A representative will meet you at Porto or Lisbon airport with your car or will take you to the local depot to collect it. At Faro we have a check in desk next to Arrivals and the vehicles are parked alongside, so there is no need to transfer. Alternatively we can deliver to or collect from your accommodation if you prefer. Please see above for more details.
