$17 Car Rental Forte da Casa

Forte da Casa is full of adventures, but don't restrict yourself to one place. Book a set of wheels and hit the road to see what's in the surrounding area. Here are a few places to choose from:

• You'll find Portugal dos Pequenitos and many more intriguing sights in Coimbra. From Forte da Casa, it's approximately 100 miles away.
• Your next pit stop? Consider Évora, which is around 65 miles away. Évora Cathedral is one local highlight you shouldn't miss.
• Rocha Beach is 120 miles from Forte da Casa and is one of the region's most scenic nature spots. Go for a wander around and enjoy the fresh air.

If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Portugal, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car. You should also be aware that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll need to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some other things to note for international car rentals are:

• Age restrictions: You need to be at least 25 in many countries to rent a car. If you're younger, it may still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of cars you can rent.
• Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off the lot. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or off road with a rental vehicle.
