Top tips for renting a car in Azores

  • Because the Azores are a chain of islands, it is important to remember that there is a limit to the number of rental cars available when you visit here. If you plan on renting a car during your visit, it is important to make sure you book a reservation as early as possible to make sure cars are available for your trip. One other important note is that quite a few of the vehicles available for rent are manual transmission cars, so make sure you are able to drive that type of car when you visit.
  • The child car seat laws you will find here are quite similar to other European countries. The law states that any child 15 months of age or younger must ride in a rear-facing car restraint, and then up to age four, they need to travel in a forward-facing car seat. Children from ages 4 to 12 need to travel in a booster seat, and it is acceptable for children to travel in the front seat so long as they are in the proper restraint and there is not an active airbag in front of them.
  • It certainly is possible to bring your rental car into another country in Europe when you rent from one of the major rental car companies here, but this is generally not a concern for most travelers since their first order of business would be to find ferry service to get them and their vehicle to mainland Europe. If this is something you would like to try to do, make sure you discuss this with your rental car company ahead of time to understand the logistics of ferry travel with a rental car and then taking the car into other countries.
  • Something that catches quite a few car rental customers by surprise when renting a car in this smaller island chain is how high of a deposit you need to pay for your rental car. Since this is the case, it is important to make sure you have proper funds to pay these deposits, and that can include making sure the credit card you use for your rental has a high enough limit to handle the deposit amount.

  • Should I rent a car when I visit the Azores?

    Since most visitors to these beautiful islands are not going to stay in one place for very long, having your own rental car offers you the flexibility and cost certainty of being able to explore on your own schedule. While there are some limited taxi and public transportation options here, they can often be time-consuming and expensive, making having your own car an even better choice.

  • What is it like driving in the Azores?

    Before setting out on the road for an adventure, it is important to know that drivers here drive on the right side of the road. Because you are on a series of islands in the middle of the ocean, you can find weather changing rather quickly, so if the weather does turn for the worse, do not be afraid to pull over and wait it out. One thing that often surprises drivers here is the number of road signs and the great GPS coverage available, so your chances of getting lost during your adventure are relatively low. Also, make sure you understand how to use roundabouts, as these are quite common in the Azores.

  • How old do I need to be to rent a car here?

    Most rental car companies here will allow drivers as young as 18 years old to rent a car so long as they have had a valid driver's license for at least one year. It is of note that drivers under the age of 25 may pay an additional surcharge for the rental, plus there can be a limit on the type of vehicle available to rent to these types of drivers.
