KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Viseu

  • Exploring Viseu and its attractions is made convenient by car hire, offering numerous benefits. Having a car allows easy access to notable sites like the Viseu Cathedral, Grão Vasco Museum, and Historic Centre. It also provides flexibility to visit nearby attractions such as Serra da Estrela Natural Park and the picturesque village of Penedono, optimising your itinerary with multiple stops. Choosing car hire in Viseu ensures door-to-door transportation, saving time and granting hassle-free access to various attractions.
  • Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport (OPO) in Porto serves as the nearest airport to Viseu. Within the terminal building, you can find well-placed car hire companies like Avis, Hertz, Europcar, and Sixt. These reputable companies offer a range of vehicles to cater to different preferences and needs, with car hire desks conveniently located in the Arrivals area for easy arrangements upon arrival. If the car hire company is not within walking distance, just outside of Arrivals, there is a shuttle bus that can transport passengers to their hire car facility.
  • Driving your car hire in Viseu is generally enjoyable. Locals mostly drive small to mid-size cars, including hatchbacks and sedans. Similar to the rest of Portugal, driving is on the right-hand side. Viseu's roads are well-maintained, marked with clear signage, and in good condition. The city streets can comfortably accommodate traffic, although some older areas may have narrower roads. Viseu's driving culture is respectful, and the road infrastructure is designed to ensure a smooth and safe experience.
  • While there are numerous advantages to driving your Viseu car hire, it's essential to be mindful of potential drawbacks. Rush hour (08:00 to 09:00 and 17:00 to 18:00) may lead to congestion on certain roads in the city centre, like Avenida António José de Almeida and Rua Direita. During the peak tourist season (June to August), increased traffic is expected, particularly around popular tourist sites and main roads leading to Viseu. Adjusting your plans and allowing extra time to account for potential traffic delays is advisable during this period.
  • Book your car hire in Viseu at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
