KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Almancil
- Almancil is an affluent enclave in the Algarve region of Portugal, with several important landmarks and three Michelin-starred restaurants to its credit. Public transport doesn’t cut it when you have dinner reservations, but car hire in Almancil offers the perfect opportunity to arrive driving a smart ride. Plus, you own the freedom to explore the wider region at your whim and pleasure. The headland at Cavacos is sprinkled with popular beaches, about 13 km from Almancil town centre. Praia da Barrinha, in Faro, is approximately 17 km down the coast and rated one of the region’s best.
- Faro Airport (FAO) is close to Almancil and has a car hire centre, so you can drive the roughly 9 km distance to town. After you exit Arrivals, collect your luggage and follow the posted directions leading outside to the Rent-a-Car area. All the majors, including SIXT, Europcar and Avis, are represented, increasing your chances of getting a late-model vehicle like the Audi A4 or Mercedes-Benz A-Class. Only persons aged 21 and older are eligible for Almancil car hire, and providers regularly apply fees to drivers under 25 years of age.
- You need to have a valid passport, ID and driver’s licence to qualify for car hire in Almancil, and we always recommend carrying an International Driving Permit for extra assurance. Plug in your hands-free mobile device and check your passengers are wearing seatbelts before you get on the road and use the right-hand side when driving your hire car to Almancil. Always pay attention to posted road signs and be vigilant for crossing pedestrians and approaching cycle traffic as you go. Dinner hours run late in Spanish cities, so anticipate moderate to high levels of activity on weeknights in the summer and on the weekend.
- A network of major roads, including A22 and N125, connects the town to the greater Algarve region. Visitors using car hire in Almancil during the peak summer season should expect high volumes of traffic inbound and outbound along these arteries periodically during the day. The huge interchange outside Pinheiro is key for late-morning and late-evening congestion in all directions, while Estr. Vale Formoso experiences high volumes of vehicular traffic on weekday afternoons from 1 pm-3 pm. This time period also experiences extremely high volumes of pedestrian and cycle traffic downtown.
- Book your car hire in Almancil at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

What type of car is recommended for driving in Almancil?
As a rule of thumb, compacts and small economy cars are more manoeuvrable, fuel efficient and cheaper than other classes and are highly recommended for singles and couples who tend to travel on a tighter budget. Passenger vans, people carriers and large SUVs offer the advantages of increased seating capacity and cargo space, making them ideal transport for groups and families. When cost is not an object, a late-model convertible or luxury car with premium features is the way to go.
What's the speed limit in Almancil?
When driving along the highways in Almancil, speeds up to 120 km/h are allowed, but in less populated areas closer to town, reduce your speed to about 90 km/h. The maximum limit in the town centre and residential areas is 50 km/h. It is illegal to drive under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs, so be responsible and drive safely as you go. In case of emergencies, dial 112.
Where are the best places to park in Almancil?
When you’re planning ahead, accommodations with in-house parking facilities are always attractive options, but if you’re driving on the fly, street parking will have to do. Blue Zones are streets with pay-and-display metered parking, or you can use a public/private garage for extended time periods. As an alternative, you can consider a park-and-ride option, to escape dealing with heavy traffic in the downtown area.
