KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Vila Real
- Using car hire in Vila Real is a much wiser decision than opting for public transport, as you have the flexibility to plan your own itinerary, the comfort of your own transport space, and also the option to explore further out of town and see the many tourist sites worth visiting. The stunning Mateus Palace Baroque is located about 5 km (3 miles) from town, and is famed for its elegant architecture and beautiful gardens. Douro Valley, one of Portugal's most famous wine regions, is around 30 km (18.5 miles) east of town.

Fill in the necessary documentation and take the shuttle bus to the car hire parking area. The drive to Vila Real town centre will take you around 1–2 hours. If you arrive on a midday flight, consider exploring the main city of Porto before you head off to your main destination.
