Bad experience. Fist not a VW polo but Citroen C3 wit more damage than on the agreement. Secondly deposit issues; was €500 creditcard (but forgot pincode) so with direct debit was it €1600. But no worries ‘ good deal” just pay insurances ( equal to rental value!) than €500 is okay also. Fuel at start only 1/8 and now back from holidays but deposit hasn’t been transferred back. What a poor service! Never again

Top-Notch Car Rental in Faro

I rented a car from Yor Car Hire Faro and was extremely satisfied from start to finish.
The communication before my trip was clear and helpful, pickup was quick and easy, and I got all the information I needed right away.
During my stay, I had a flat tire, and the support was truly excellent – fast, kind, and solution-oriented. The return of the car was just as smooth.
The team is exceptionally friendly, professional, and caring.
Great price-performance ratio and overall a wonderful experience.
Highly recommend – thank you, Yor Car Hire team! 🌟

YOR Car Hire Faro airport.

Good quality car and our dropoff contact was kind enough to take us to the bus station. 5 stars just for that.
Word of advice, check that your fuel gauge and the damage report file correspond, before leaving the airport. The report file said 1/4 of a tank, but it actually on "refuel".

Ultimately great customer service

After a somewhat rough start due to a misunderstanding, YOR made sure to rectify the mistake with impeccable after sales customer service. I will definitely book again with them as the cars are in pristine condition and the procedures fairly straightforward. One great asset is the location at the airport as opposed to having to take a shuttle bus somewhere, which is a great benefit and makes getting the car and especially returning it very easy indeed. To be recommended!

Pavlo assisted me and my kids with hiring. He was clear and patient with information, even though the desk was very busy he was calm and professional.
I was hoping for my deposit to be returned upon handing back the keys, but he said it would take 2 weeks to return! This was disappointing. I wil give 5 stars when my deposit is returned.
Thank you Pavlo Kondratiuk.

Hi Elizabeth,

Thank you so much for your kind words about Pavlo! We’re delighted to hear that he was clear, patient, and professional while assisting you and your kids.

Regarding the deposit, as stated in our terms and conditions, it can take 10–14 working days to be returned. This is because we need to wait to ensure there are no possible fines or highway charges in Portugal before releasing it. We completely understand that this can be disappointing, and we really appreciate your patience.

We look forward to returning your deposit soon and hope to welcome you back for another great experience.

Warm regards,

Really easy to hire a car from YOR Car Portugal. We were in our hire care within 10 minutes of arriving at the desk. Only 5 minutes walk from the terminal. Highly recommend. Our car hire was 300 euro (includes all insurance), the same car hire with Avis would have cost 500 euros without the extra insurance.

Extra cleaning cost

I was renting a Minicooper in Faro and they charged me extra cleaning while returning. I was telling them the car is not extra dirty, but they said I should have vacuum clean it before returning. I have never see something like that before.

Hi Jakub,

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear that you were unhappy with the cleaning charge. Our policy, as stated in our terms and conditions, is that cars should be returned in the same general condition as they were handed over.

We always try to be flexible for minor cleaning issues, but in cases of excessive dirt, a small fee may apply. We completely understand that this can be surprising and appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve our communication with customers.

We hope to have the chance to welcome you again in the future and provide a smoother experience.
