Frequently asked questions

How do I get the best deals on a Santarem Hertz rental car?

We try to get you the best price, no matter when you book. However, booking your car ahead of your visit can help you save even more. Make sure to not add an additional driver and go over the mileage policy to avoid any unexpected fees.

What do I need to bring when I pick up my car rental in Santarem?

You will need to carry with you your driver's license and a credit card in your name.

How old do I have to be to rent a car in Santarem?

Hertz's minimum age to rent a car in Santarem is 21. Take time to check Hertz's policies, as there may be limitations if you are under 25 in most cases or for higher category rentals in particular.

Is there a particular car I should get for my trip to Santarem?

That depends on how many people you are traveling with and what you'll be doing when you visit Santarem. Economy or compact vehicles are easier to park and great for short drives. If you are traveling with coworkers, then a SUV or mid-size vehicle is going to have more room for everyone's bags and provide a more comfortable ride. Those looking for a touch of extravagance on their vacation can choose a higher-end category like a Mercedes C-Class or Audi A4 or similar.

Is insurance required when you rent a car in Portugal?

You are required to have insurance before you rent a car in Portugal. Although many of the major card issuers, like American Express or MasterCard, give some coverage, there are usually restrictions. For instance, they may not cover your rental car if you book a larger or luxury vehicle. Make sure to check credit card issuer's policy before you decide. Additionally, as a U.S. citizen, you can also purchase Collision Damage Coverage with CarRentals.com at checkout.

Do I need to pay a deposit when I book my Hertz car rental?

Hertz does require a deposit when you book your rental car. Hertz will block the deposit on your credit once you book your vehicle for your trip. Please be aware that the deposit may vary greatly based on the model and make of the car.

Do I have to full up the tank before I take my car back to Hertz?

At CarRentals.com, we advise a full to full policy. You pick up your Hertz rental with the needle at "F". But, if you return the rental with less than the amount that you received it with, most companies will charge a premium, and sometimes up to 3X the amount of current gas prices to refill it. For a cheaper rate, it is best to fill up your tank before you return the car to Hertz.

Why should I get unlimited miles?

Santarem certainly has its charms, but you may want to take to the road after you've checked off all the activities here.

Does Santarem Hertz offer one-way car rentals?

Hertz offers one-way rentals in most cases. You may find it more convenient to return your rental at another Hertz. Be aware there may be an additional fee when you pick one-way.
