KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Sintra

  • Using car rentals in Sintra offers several advantages for travelers. With a car rental in Sintra, you can explore the city's stunning sights without being limited by public transportation schedules. It also allows you to venture into the scenic surrounding areas and access remote viewpoints. A Sintra car rental can be more convenient for families or groups, providing comfort and accessibility that other transportation options might not offer. With Sintra car rentals, you can visit areas like the beautiful Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of continental Europe, the enchanting beach town of Cascais, known for its coastline and vibrant atmosphere, and the historic town of Mafra, home to the impressive Mafra National Palace.
  • If you fly to Sintra, you'll likely land at Humberto Delgado Airport (LIS). Numerous prominent car rental companies are present at LIS, each at the car rental center before the security checkpoint in Terminal 1. The collection area is only a brief stroll from there. This car collection point offers easy and swift access to two possible routes for leaving the airport: the A1 Lisbon Motorway in the northern direction or the Vasco da Gama Bridge for those heading south.
  • Driving car rentals in Sintra generally reflects a mix of calm and relaxed attitudes, with occasional impatience. While drivers typically respect traffic rules, the pace might feel leisurely compared to urban centers. Bicycles are uncommon, but you may encounter them, especially in tourist areas. Trucks are less frequent, and jaywalking is not a significant issue. Common vehicles include compact cars and local brands. The driving style is moderately considerate and adheres to traffic norms, offering a manageable experience on Sintra's roads.
  • Although an exciting experience, driving car rentals in Sintra can pose challenges due to narrow and winding roads, especially in the hilly terrain around attractions. Rush hours, typically between 8 am and 10 am and 5 pm and 7 pm, can lead to congestion on roads like Estrada Nacional 9 and within Sintra's town center, affecting movement. The historic center's tight streets may be challenging for larger vehicles. Navigating popular sites like Pena Palace might require patience and careful driving.
