Re: Car hire

I have used either Drive for Fun or mostly Travel Rent which I think has been "taken over" by LC Rent who I am renting from in September.

Re: Car hire

I have used Zest for car hire in Portugal for the last 15 years which speaks for itself.

All options for car type and prices are clearly shown on the website. NO hidden extras.

I have never been offered top up insurance when collecting my car from any of the car suppliers.

Re: Entry to Portugal : Proof of Recovery certificate

easyJet website still showing departure tests still needed.

Re: Entry to Portugal : Proof of Recovery certificate

Based on recent Portuguese Govt announcement it looks like you do not need a Covid test before departure from UK.
