The Algarve - Car Hire

Going on holiday is fun, staying in your own private villa or apartment just makes it that much better and if you are keen to explore the Algarve then you should be considering car hire.

There's no shortage of car hire companies or vehicles on the Algarve, except during the peak holiday periods when many people find they can’t get their first choice and are forced to select a vehicle, usually from a higher band.

The competition between the car hire companies gets very intense and some may cut corners in order to get your business, so be on your guard.

Generally car rental companies provide auto insurance as part of their rental package, however the cover often only meets the minimum requirements, which could leave you at risk or out of pocket, so make sure you read the conditions.
