Whatever class of ride you want, Expedia will help you pick up the best deal. Simply compare offers from top rental suppliers and select the option that's right for you. Want to hit the road with even more in your wallet? Bundle your Salvador car rental with flight or hotel bookings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Salvador?
Salvador requires drivers to be 18 and above to be able to rent a car. However, young drivers can expect an extra charge and some restrictions on choice. Most suppliers impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the standard rental rate. This covers the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like mid-size and compact) are available to young renters, restrictions generally apply to specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Salvador?
In most cases, all you'll need is a valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name when picking up the car. You may also need proof of coverage if you decide to opt out of the company's insurance policy. These requirements may differ between rental outlets, so it's always wise to check while booking.
What side of the road do you drive on in Salvador?
Traffic drives on the right and passes on the left in Portugal — the same side as in the States. Traveling around Salvador won't be exactly like home, though. We recommend familiarizing yourself with the local traffic rules.
What is the cheapest car rental in Salvador?
With rental prices starting from as low as and a day in Salvador within the past seven days, you'll be driving off with your own fantastic deal before you know it. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Salvador?
You can. We partner with reputable companies that offer long-term rentals for many car classes. Check out our long-term car rental deals and explore every nook and cranny of Salvador — or way beyond!
Where can I find a Salvador car rental if I am younger than 25?
Renting a car if you are under 25 years old in Salvador often depends on the rental supplier you choose. Some places have a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years of age, yet others may not have any extra fees for this age range. It'd be wise to go through the terms and conditions of your selected rental dealer to avoid extra charges at the rental desk.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Salvador?
It's smart to have collision damage protection to safeguard your Salvador rental car against accident damage, theft and vandalism. And with Expedia, it's easy to purchase this insurance for your vehicle at the time of booking. Providing up to $35,000 in primary coverage, it also offers 24/7 emergency support and a zero-dollar deductible should you need to make a claim. Plans changed? If you cancel your policy before your scheduled collection time, you'll receive a complete refund.
Can I drive in Salvador with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Portugal, then it's likely you'll need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be able to rent a car. Please also consider that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some additional requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or over in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger, it might still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before you drive off the lot. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with a rental car.
