You have two simple options:

1) Direct booking:
Based on the guides on our website, you can book the car directly on our partners’ websites. Use the VAMOS5 - VAMOS10 coupon code and you’ll get 5–10% off the car price.

2) Request a quote via the form:
Fill in the quote request form and we’ll send you the best offers calculated with the discount. If you like one, we’ll arrange the booking with our partners.

Payment:
Payment is made on site at pick-up — in cash or by bank card.

No — with our partners you don’t need a credit card or a deposit.

Payment is simple and flexible: at pick-up you can pay in cash, by bank card, or even with Apple Pay and Google Pay.

With all of our partners, you can rent a car with full insurance.

RentX:
If you choose the “Rent with Insurance” package, the insurance covers all damage, including wheels/tyres, windshield and mirrors.

Rent-A-Car Madeira:
The base price includes full insurance (bodywork, theft protection). Optionally, for an extra €10/day it can be extended to the windshield, mirrors and tyres.

Auto Canhas:
The base price includes full insurance for the bodywork. Optionally, for an extra €5/day you can add additional insurance for wheels, windshield and mirrors.

The €1000 Car4YouMadeira guarantee provides extra peace of mind for every booking.

If you use the VAMOS5 or VAMOS10 coupon code, or if we handle the booking for you, your reservation is automatically covered by the guarantee.

What does it cover?
– If you can’t pick up the car because your flight was delayed (e.g., taxi and accommodation costs)
– A fine or fee you didn’t cause
– Unreasonable extra costs charged by the rental company

This way you can be sure there are no unpleasant surprises — we stand behind you and can cover unexpected costs up to €1000.

You can read the full details and conditions on our guarantee page.

Yes, of course — you can rent a car even for 1 or 2 days.

However, in high season it’s best to book in advance to secure better prices and availability.

In our experience, it’s best to book 1–3 months before your trip.

If you try to book too early (6–12 months ahead), that period is often not priced yet, so prices may be higher.

You can pick up and drop off the car at several locations:

📍 Airport
📍 Machico
📍 Funchal
📍 Hotel / Apartment
📍 In most towns on Madeira’s south coast

The exact options may vary by partner.

Just fill in the form with your desired pick-up location and we’ll send you the available offers.

If your flight is delayed, the rental company will wait for you.

If you know you’ll be more than 2 hours late or you’re arriving on a different flight, let them know via WhatsApp or email.

Arrival outside opening hours:

RentX: 08:00–19:00, pick-up outside these hours has a €30 surcharge.

Auto Canhas: 08:00–22:00, pick-up outside these hours has a €25 surcharge.

Rent-A-Car Madeira: 09:00–19:00, pick-up outside these hours has a €25 surcharge.

If you arrive very early in the morning, with prior arrangement you can pick up the car at dawn as well, or the next morning.

If, due to the delay, you still cannot pick up the car, our €1000 guarantee covers the taxi costs there and back: to your accommodation and the next morning back to the rental company.
