What to do in Lisbon
Lisbon is an exciting city but still not as touristy as some other European capitals. For the best views of the city, cross the Tagus river to Almada and climb to the Cristo Rei, the monumental statue of Christ like the one in Rio de Janeiro. Or visit Castelo de São Jorge, which can be reached by an enjoyable walk through the old town and the oldest neighborhood in Lisbon, Alfama. For a day trip, drive 30 minutes northwest to Sintra, a town that is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Summer in Lisbon
If you plan to visit Lisbon in the summer, expect temperatures averaging in the low 80s with little to no rain. That means you will have great weather to explore! Walk around the hilly city and stop into cafes when you need a break. Take a river cruise and enjoy the cool air or go to a beach near Lisbon. Praia de Carcavelos and Costa da Caparica are just a couple of beaches accessible with a rental car. Also, look out for one of the many summer music festivals in and around Lisbon!

Rogeńo Martinho was great as a customer service representative! Very helpful and everything was smooth for the first rental. Insurance is quite pricey but the toll Pass is worth it! I even came back a week after my rental was over and rented again and got a decent upgrade for my station wagon rental! Sixt overall has the best prices and customer service was pleasantly outstanding!

One of the only rental shops in Portugal with a website that works correctly! I tried to reserve through Enterprise rental but their website wouldn't allow me to choose any of the available pick-up times, so gave up and rented from Sixt.
The staff are super friendly x energetic, and helpful for explaining about driving on the expressway in Portugal. The car was given with explanation on setting gps to English and fuel tank.
Because the roads are narrow, I accidentally scratched the side mirror but returning the car was a breeze. They assured me and made me feel relaxed about the scratch I had created.
Accessing the rental shop is a little difficult if you walk from the nearest subway station so make sure to take the bus there instead.
I'll definitely be renting from them again soon.
One thing which I wanted to know was the expressway toll charges. Not sure how much I was charged each time I crossed, but other than that, the staff emailed me my invoice. Really helpful especially for foreigners booking a car from their hoke country.
