We rented a car from Sixt in February 2024. We were assisted by Julia who was really kind and helpful, giving us all the information we needed. Special thanks to Julia, highly recommended

We had a good experience here. Decided to rent a car less than a day before rental start. We only had debit card, which should always indicate to you to have full coverage by rental company. And Sixt had the best price for full coverage from all rentals in Porto. The rental was cheap, fast and with full coverage without any stress. Deposit money we had paid at counter were returned by 48 hours after rental ended, everything was smooth. I fairly recommend this rental car company in Porto.
