Book Thrifty hire cars in Faro

Bookings paid in full in advance can be cancelled up to midnight two full days prior to the scheduled collection date for a full refund. Cancellations less than two days before the pick-up date will be charged a service fee of about €56 or £37 for UK customers. In-person reservations can be cancelled right up to the actual collection date free of charge, but if you fail to collection a vehicle without prior notice Lost Rental Fees will apply.

UK residents must show a passport with return ticket, a valid driver’s license and one other form of picture-ID to get a Faro Thrifty hire car. The agency also recommends carrying an International Driving Permit (IDP) and we further urge all foreign nationals with licenses in non-English languages to carry one as well. Major credit cards are required to cover pre-authorisation fees and hire costs, plus you must produce the same card used for the booking to collect car hire at the agency office.

Free on-street parking in Faro city centre tends to be scarce during summer travel period from May to October. You can find free parking spots near Faro Cathedral but these are well-known to locals, so get there early if you can. Whenever in doubt, we suggest using public or private garages to park Thrifty car hires in Faro that are secured against damage or theft. The car park at Parque Saba da Potinha is close to several area attractions and comes highly recommended. On-street meters take coins only but cards are accepted at public and private car parks.
