With some awesome day trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to explore everything that Belmonte, 17 miles away, has to offer. Among your first stops here ought to be Belmonte Castle, Torre Centum Cellas and Belmonte Synagogue. Don’t skip Castelo Branco either! Just 20 miles away, Branco Castle, Nossa Senhora da Piedade Chapel and Francisco Tavares Proenca Junior Museum are must-sees here.
