Car hire
Car rental companies in Portugal normally have a minimum age for hiring a car (21, 23 or 25, depending on the company and type of vehicle). Some companies also have a maximum age limit of 75. A small number of companies will rent to drivers under 21, provided they pay a ‘young driver’ surcharge.

Breakdown
The Portuguese equivalent of the AA is ACP (Automóvel Clube de Portugal). ACP has partnerships with many foreign associations, so if your car breaks down, you should call your own country’s roadside assistance company (e.g. the AA) and they will contact ACP to help you.
