When staying in Albufeira during your holiday, it is highly recommended that you rent a car for the duration of your stay. Although public transport between the major cities is excellent, many of the attractions are in places that are not accessible by bus, resulting in long expensive taxi rides and long journey times. By renting a car, you will have the opportunity to explore the many beautiful places in this region and get the most out of your holiday by keeping travel time to a minimum.
Many car rental companies in and around Albufeira require a credit card for the deposit. But for those without a credit card or who prefer not to use one, there is also one car rental company where you can rent a car without a credit card: Luzcar. This small family business offers high quality rental cars with no hassle. Where other companies ask for credit cards, at Luzcar you can rent a car without one!
Now while Luzcar is not based directly in Albufeira, you can pick up your rental car directly at the airport from where you can drive to Albufeira with your own four wheels!
Below you can calculate the rates and book directly with Luzcar, hassle free and without credit card!
