KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Horta
- If you plan to visit Horta, consider doing yourself a favor by renting a car when you get there. The city has numerous areas of attraction located far apart, including Horta Old Town, Faial Island, Marina da Horta, and Port of Horta. You can conveniently access these places via car rentals in Horta. Although the city has excellent public transport services, catching the bus at the terminals every time is daunting and worth avoiding. Besides, public transport cannot access certain places, especially off-road destinations, forcing you to connect with taxis. Additionally, Horta car rentals offer affordability, convenience, and flexibility when it comes to your mobility needs.
