Your Algarve car hire will not be very expensive – Yor-Cars focuses on inexpensive car hires even though the cars are late model and top notch. Algarve car hires are very easy to arrange. You can get a car hire at the airport or around the region. If you are new to Portuguese roads, here is a word to the wise. Don’t worry about the speeding Porsches. Watch out for the smaller, cheaper cars driven by others on the road. These are usually starter cars and the drivers don’t have the experience and deftness of those who tear around in the bigger and faster cars. There are some basic rules of the road you might recognize from your own home. Drinking and driving or talking on a cell phone and driving will net you an instant fine. And the fines can be substantial. You have to wear seats belts and children under 12 years old can’t be in the front seat.
However, tourists don’t need to travel at high road-use times and they don’t need to be in a rush. The whole point of an Algarve car hire is to be able to poke into the nooks and crannies of the real countryside of this ancient geographical region. The Algarve, which is 3,360 square miles in size, cannot be properly seen from a tour bus. There are nature preserves, villages, beaches, coastal towns, and other remnants of the long historic past of the area.
Just a side note about parking…it is a lot more difficult than you can imagine because no one seems to want to walk so people tend to hover around the closest parking spots to the entrance to the shopping area. Make life easy for yourself. Park and walk.
