All the above cars are insured to carry 5 people, and are manual transmission, unless otherwise stated. No one particular type of car can be absolutely guaranteed. The cars will be supplied to you ON AIRPORT, but deliveries and collections can also be arranged. Other cars/suppliers may be available on request.

All rates are quoted on a 7 day week and are based on the rate applicable on the first rental day. For other durations, the rates are pro-rata. The minimum hire period is 3 days (costed at 50% of weekly rate). Rental days are based on 24 hours, i.e. if you pick the car up at 10.00 am, the car needs to be returned about the same time, or else an extra day’s rental will be charged. Bookings are subject to the contractual terms of the local car hire company, whose name will be on the documents, and contracts are signed locally; you will be subject to its terms and conditions and local law. You will be given details of who to contact locally in the case of any problems

Rates include: Unlimited mileage, Collision Damage Waiver (CDW), Theft Protection Insurance, one extra driver (if required), all airport charges and taxes, free delivery and/or collection to/from your accommodation if required, during office hours. (Out of office hours are between 22.00 hrs and 08.00 hrs when a delivery charge of 30 euros is payable locally).

Not included: Petrol, Personal Accident Insurance (usually covered by your personal travel insurance), tyre, windscreen or window damage, traffic fines and any insurance excess* (this can range from approx 350 - 1500 euros depending on the type of car). Extra insurance (green card) may be necessary if you intend travelling into Spain.

You will be asked for a credit card on which any deposits (for insurance excess and petrol) may be held; this credit card imprint will then be returned to you on the safe return of the car with the petrol refilled to the level previously supplied. Please note as with all car hire companies you may be asked about extra insurance - this is known as 'super cdw'. This is not compulsory but it would mean you would not pay any insurance excess (see * above) in the event of an accident. From £5 per day, depending on the car, you could cover yourself against this eventuality - talk to us about this if you have any queries.
If you need to hire several booster/baby seats and/or extra drivers, it will be worth taking the 'all-inclusive' rate which includes all these extras and also covers the super cdw - excess* payable in the event of an accident. Details of these rates on request.

Extras:
- Extra drivers after first: Small charge (currently 5 euros per week per extra driver), payable locally.
- Cross border authorisation (green card) - into Spain only - 25 euros per rental.
- Booster/baby seats (not available for those under 1 year): Small charge payable locally (currently 2 euros per day). Baby seats are COMPULSORY for babies up to 3 years, and booster seats are COMPULSORY for those aged up to 12 yrs or under 1.5m tall.

TAXI / MINIBUS TRANSFERS:
We can also organise a taxi or minibus transfer to your accommodation. Prices for a one way transfer to the Vale do Lobo/Quinta do Lago area from Faro airport are £26 for a taxi (accommodating 1 – 4 people), and £38 for a minibus accommodating 5 – 8 people. You will be met in the arrival hall. Prices for transfers to Parque da Floresta and Praia d ’el Rey are available on request.
