Rented a car here due to recommendation from a friend. Everything went really smooth and the car was clean and in a good condition. I was worried about drop off because had early flight and they are open from 7am, but the process took 1 minute, and I'm not exaggerating. They made a few photos of the interior, collected keys and that's it. Suppose it's due to the premium package I opted for plus there was no queue. Other than that, the staff was very friendly, there is shuttle that can take you from and to airport, good fleet, no need to worry about every small detail like a toll transponder (and I highly recommend you having one if you are driving around Portugal - having to stop and manually pay at every toll gate sucks - there are many)

Working in the same business so it's easy for me to say that Centauro is a great company. Easy to book online and easy to find, full insurance is cheap, car is new and very cheap to run and I did over 1500 km in Portugal in 5 days!!!. No complaints and no issues whatsoever. The shuttle service was efficient and fast! The staff was lovely and friendly! Thank you centauro, Nuno and Ricardo and I will use you again in Portugal and all around Europe!

An excellent experience with Centauro Auto Madeira! The rental car was in perfect condition—clean, well-maintained, and ideal for exploring the beauty of the island. The pick-up and drop-off process was quick and hassle-free, and the staff was very friendly and professional. We enjoyed a comfortable and safe ride throughout our trip. I highly recommend Centauro for a stress-free and high-quality car rental service! We will definitely return!

How to pay

  • What are the different ways I can pay for my car hire?

    1.   Payment by Credit or Debit Card:  payment can be made using a credit/debit card (Visa/Visa Electron or Mastercard) either via our web site or on collection of the vehicle. You need to know that there will be a deposit applicable if you do not choose the Smart cover. The deposit will be refunded to you at the end of the rental if there is no new damage made to the car. For Portugal, a 100€ deposit will be charged to your debit or credit card to cover possible Via Verde toll charges. Debit cards must be nominative. If you have prepaid on the web for your vehicle you must use the same credit/debit (Visa/Visa Electron o Mastercard) when picking up the car. At our Athens & Thessaloniki offices, we only accept payment with a credit card.

    2.   Cash payment: we accept cash for your car hire in Spain and Portugal (Italy and Greece cash is not accepted). In these cases, and as a guarantee, you are required to leave a deposit for the excess applicable to the vehicle given using a credit card (NOT DEBIT).

    We do not accept prepaid cards, American Express, Maestro or Diners Club.

  • Can I pay with my credit card if I am not the person who picks up the car?

    No, the driver must present a valid credit or debit card in their name on collecting the vehicle.
