Best places to visit in Portugal

  • Évora: As a world UNESCO Heritage site people flock from all over the world to visit this ancient place filled with structures dating as far back as the 2nd Century. It has retained much of its roots and historical charm with its traditional ways and tasteful market culture.   
  • Obidos: This is one of the oldest cities in the country, where you can walk the centuries-old cobbled streets. It was once a place just for the queens of Portugal but now open to the public its regal structures and famous museums will move any visitor.  
  • Porto: The vibrant city of Porto is for maritime lovers with its incredible waterfront. Tastings at the old local cellars are a treat. The buildings are painted with vibrant colours and it has some of the best seafood restaurants in the country right by its harbour.

Jeff B.

The agent was fantastic and helped us make the reservation and ensured that the vehicle was what we wanted a few days later when we picked it up. We returned it to a different location and had no problems at all. The Ford Puma was a great little car. Thank you Diane.

R.

Very smooth hand-in of the car (Peugoet 2008) - quick and easy. No problems.

 

Vasco from the Sixt team did a good job.

R.

Long queue when picking up the car and some issues for paying with card. But the car itself was very good and we enjoyed driving around in Portugal.

Michael P.

Staff were super friendly on collection and drop off. In and out in 5 minutes both times.

Did end up going to the sixt airport branch to find out were the shuttle bus was.

M.

Always friendly. Didn’t have any problems renting cars here!

Dieter Georg H.

Everything was perfect! Thanks to Diana, who did the onboarding. Great service! Received a fantastic car for the steep roads. Booked via check24. Anytime again.

T C.

One of the better car rentals in Faro Airport

Filipe L.

Rented a car December 2022, the place is small but it was not busy like the airport, delivery was decent and fast, they did the typical checks fuel and surface damages, the car was great I drove 700km a round trip near Porto. The only inconvenience is the area the street is narrow and busy, I had a compact SUV

S. A.

Best attention provided by Julio Ribeiro: Professional , proactive and cordial.

After long flights definitely he makes it easy and smooth.

I definitely recommend renting with him.

 

Although we had a terrible experience over the phone with a reservation’s NEW team member named TIAGO NEVES.

After frequently renting for over a year now, this is the first person that in our experience doesn’t reflect the impeccable customer service SIXT usually provide!

Mike H.

It was one of the best rentals I have ever used. Considering that I rent 45 times per year. Better than avis, herzt and others.

A.

Not sure why they have so many bad reviews. Maybe the management/employees changed.

I had a great experience as always with Sixt. Pick-up and drop-off where very smooth and car was in good shape. Would recommend.

Darryn R.

Staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to assist and make sure all my expectations were met. Great team and great vehicle.
