How old do you have to be to rent a car in Portugal?
Oh my god you’re such a typical millennial newb.
Embarrassing.
Was this”friend of yours” you? 🤣
I feel like you’re Mainly comparing the driving to how it is in the USA…. Driving in Portugal is very simple and In my opinion it’s safer too. Thanks for the video! Parking Lisbon sucks and so does tax
Do they drive on the opposite side of the road like in England or the same side as in Canada?
a video for dummies
Good to know. It's very similar here (Brazil)… I only drove automatic cars in Canada and USA.
thank you!!!
Looking at his Renault reminds me of the time when I once driven the Renault Mégane RS 265 manual from 2013 and boy was it a hell of a hot hatch!!
There are right turns on red lights. Claiming that is silly.
You need to explore the town a little better.

thats why portuguese were the navigators, rules are for who dont want to use their brains and innovations
💗💖💕💟😌😢☺😌💏
Like u portugal
I wonder how the driving compares to NY
prenotato l'auto con il numero 9884354911. quando sono arrivato in rua andrade corvo 31 a lisbona mi hanno detto che la prenotazine non esisteva piu' perche' l'avevo cancellata. e qui mentono sapendo di mentire.nemmeno hanno voluto vedere l'addebito sulla carta di credito. per avere la stessa auto, dato che non avevo tempo per cercarne un'altra mi hanno fattio pagare tre volte tanto. la signora salgado mi ha trattato a pesci in faccia. una compagnia di merda con gente di merda da evitare come la peste.
The way he says "Renault" 😂😂😂
Americans LOL If you like Portugal try driving in Rome . If you dont have a licence to drive a gear stick its illegal Haha.
There are right turns on Red lights..
And it’s not a traffic circle, it’s a roundabout
its called roundabouts
Que otário, nem inglês sabe…roundabout pedaço de merda.
If the sign says 120 km/h you can go until 240 km/h you just need to x2 what’s it says. I’m Portuguese I know what I’m saying
How much do tolls cost if u choose to pay urself? Is it cheaper?
Truly enjoyed watching the video. 😀
Heard a lot of stories about tourists getting ripped off by car rental companies in Portugal; specifically about dealers finding any excuse to charge you extra fees for either normal wear/tear or super tiny scratches, or missing plastic moldings that may not have been there to begin with. This is done when you return the car (obviously) and they know you are on your way out of the country and probably not a position to wait for an estimate to fix the "damage" and will likely agree to whatever they demand. Any tips on this?
Awesome Video. Very Informational. thank you Buddy.
A bit exaggerated with the “they drive like crazy” still good tips.
Scream the car I have a Harley
There are right turns on red lights, but they're rather rare.
I know of one in Aveiro.
What GPS options do you recommend?
Typical American thinks everything should be the same as the USA
Not traffic circles roundabouts
Wtf who is so stupid enough not to know how to drive manual
who shoots you?
I wonder if you've ever been to Italy (; Obviously not – Portugal is a calm flow in comparison xD And roundabouts are nothing unique to Portugal, it's a world-wide (or at least European) thing xD
You're the kind of guy who complains about everything, even the car key.
And yes, we have luinous signs to turn right
In what concerns to roundabouts the UK beats Portugal hands down.
@Medu
I suggest you practice in Italy and Spain.
that took some big balls to admit you can't drive stick
It's called a roundabout…
Jesus, I'm moving to Lisbon soon (from Finland) and I just got my driver's license. I'm super scared about driving in Portugal because the traffic there is crazy (compared to Finnish traffic) and people there tend to honk a lot at each other on the road.. aaah, oh well, I guess I only learn by driving there haha
What is weird are the signs in the US, and the way you drive, Americans to park need two parking spots! And only know how to drive in a straight line, come visit Portugal but rent a car with driver!
Whatever you do make sure you do not rent with @Goldcar. The online price is a fraction of what you will actually pay. Don't just take my word for it. Google any of the following. Goldcar Scammers, Goldcar Thieves, Goldcar Robbers, Goldcar Liars. Or check out some of the sites on Twitter @robbedbygoldcar or some of the facebook sites https://www.facebook.com/GoldcarReviews/ YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
"They drive kind of crazy"??? You were driving in Lisbon or in Morroco? You must be kind of mistaken.
