Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Salvador car reservation?
There are always times when plans change. That's why we provide your money back on the majority of prepaid reservations if you notify us a minimum of six hours ahead of collecting the car. Remember to double-check the rental agreement — there are some instances where it's not offered. Can't find the details there? Our Customer Service Portal has more information.
What types of cars can I rent in Salvador?
Whatever meets your needs! Go for a mid-size or full-size if you're travelling with the family, or scale up to a premium if it's sophistication you're after. Or, choose an economy model — the most popular rental in Salvador. Affordable and with awesome mileage, they're a good match for solo travellers, couples or anyone else who doesn't require a large amount of room. They're especially suited to exploring cities. Getting into narrow parking spots will be a piece of cake!

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Salvador?
In Salvador, the rule is generally 18 and over. Most companies will charge additional fees for young drivers, which can vary based on the rental location. Rental policies for young drivers may include restrictions for certain vehicles, such as specialty cars, and require comprehensive insurance. It's a good idea to read the fine print carefully before choosing your wheels.
What do you need to rent a car in Salvador?
The main requirements are a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name. Many car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of other coverage if you opt out. Check your policy terms and conditions to avoid any hassles.
What side of the road do you drive on in Salvador?
Just like the U.S, you'll need to stick to the right in Portugal. However, that doesn't mean all road rules are the same. Get familiar with the local traffic regulations before you get to Salvador.

You can. We partner with quality suppliers that offer long-term rentals for many car classes. Reserve one of our long-term car rental deals and explore every part of Salvador — or far beyond!
Where can I find a Salvador car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether or not you can rent a car if you are under 25 years old in Salvador often depends on the rental supplier you choose. Some places apply a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years old, whereas other companies may not apply any extra costs for this age group. It'd be good to understand the terms and conditions of your prospective rental dealer to avoid any surprise charges when picking up your keys.
