SIXT services in Guimaraes
Our Guimaraes car hire services include useful extras you can book in advance, be that a sat nav unit or a child seat. Our car hire periods are very flexible, giving you a choice of a weekly rental, a long-term rental, and other shorter periods if you’re not staying long. A comfy and spacious saloon will do you nicely here, as will a compact car if you’re on your own. Larger groups like families can have a minibus if preferred to an MPV, and if you’re a real petrolhead, we have convertibles and high-performance sports models.
What to do while in Guimaraes
You can scarcely miss the most prominent tourist attraction in the town, Castelo de Guimarães. Built around the 10th century, it’s one of the most well-preserved Medieval castles in this part of Europe. Below it is Paço dos Duques de Bragança, an impressive former royal residence. Penha de Santa Catarina Park offers quite awe-inspiring sights. It’s only about 4 miles from the town along a little mountain road – easily reachable if you book Guimaraes car hire with SIXT.
