How to Find the Best Deals on Azores Rental Cars

admin April 18, 2023 Rental Cars

If you’re planning a trip to the Azores, you’ll want to make sure you have reliable transportation to explore all the islands have to offer. Renting a car can be a great option, but it can also be expensive. Here are some tips and tricks to help you find the best deals on Azores rental cars.

The easiest way to visit São Miguel island is by renting a car or booking a tour. There are also buses, but they are less frequent and may not be as convenient for tourists.

Book in advance

One of the easiest ways to save money on Azores rental cars is to book in advance. Many car rental companies offer discounts for customers who book their rental cars early. By booking in advance, you can also ensure that you get the type of car you want, rather than having to settle for whatever is available when you arrive. Additionally, booking in advance can help you avoid last-minute price hikes that often occur during peak travel times.

Save Money with a 10% Discount

10% discount

I have a partnership with a rent-a-car that I recommend to my guests.

I can ask the rental car to send you a detailed quote for your stay, with a 10% discount.

To confirm the reservation, simply reply to the email. You only pay when picking up the vehicle.

The price includes the “normal” insurance. But you can choose full risk insurance with zero deposit.

You can pick up and drop off at Ponta Delgada airport.

This service is exclusive to my guests. So, to gain this 10% discount you have to book here one of my Family Homes at Ponta Delgada, São Miguel island.

Search on online travel agencies

Use online travel agencies like Expedia or Kayak to compare prices from different rental car companies.

But to look up rent-a-car prices in São Miguel island, I recommend these two online travel agencies:

Compare prices from multiple rental car companies

Don’t settle for the first rental car company you come across. Take the time to compare prices from multiple companies to ensure you’re getting the best deal. You can also check the websites of individual rental car companies to see if they offer any exclusive deals or discounts. Keep in mind that the cheapest option may not always be the best, so make sure to read reviews and check the rental car company’s policies before making a final decision.

Cheap Rental Car

In São Miguel, in small cars with 5 seats, Way2Azores has cheap prices.

Family Car

If you are going to travel with more than 5 people, you will need to rent a vehicle with 7 or 9 seats.

The rent-a-car that I recommend to my guest has vehicles with 7 or 9 seats.

The 7 seat vehicle is an Opel Zafira, like the photo.

Car with Automatic Transmission

If you are used to drive an automatic car and dont know how to drive a manual, you should book an automatic.

In this case, you should book in advance, because there are few rental cars with automatic vehicles.
