Our services at Guimaraes

SIXT services in Guimaraes

Our Guimaraes car hire services include useful extras you can book in advance, be that a sat nav unit or a child seat. Our car hire periods are very flexible, giving you a choice of a weekly rental, a long-term rental, and other shorter periods if you’re not staying long. A comfy and spacious saloon will do you nicely here, as will a compact car if you’re on your own. Larger groups like families can have a minibus if preferred to an MPV, and if you’re a real petrolhead, we have convertibles and high-performance sports models.

What to do while in Guimaraes

You can scarcely miss the most prominent tourist attraction in the town, Castelo de Guimarães. Built around the 10th century, it’s one of the most well-preserved Medieval castles in this part of Europe. Below it is Paço dos Duques de Bragança, an impressive former royal residence. Penha de Santa Catarina Park offers quite awe-inspiring sights. It’s only about 4 miles from the town along a little mountain road – easily reachable if you book Guimaraes car hire with SIXT.

Then there’s Largo da Oliveira, the ancient square that is the original centre of the town, with its locally famous bell tower.

Guimaraes car hire with SIXT

You’ll appreciate car hire in Guimaraes once you’ve arrived and are on the road. The entire town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, in a region known as the birthplace of Portugal. We provide almost any model from rugged MPVs if you want to head into the countryside, to economy cars that will give you plenty of cost-effective mileage. No matter which you choose, your car will be on average only 3 months old and will be a late model from top brands like Mercedes, BMW and Volvo. You’ll easily find us near the main transport hubs in the town and will be helped by fluent English-speakers.

We rented two cars some weeks ago. I have to say that we had an incredible experience renting in Sixt (Guimarães), nothing went wrong and we had no issues/problems. The service was amazingly conducted by César Ribeiro. I would say that it was the best service of Renting a car I had during my life (in different countries). He was extremely attentive, polite and efficient. I would recommend it! The prices were very competitive and the service all good.
