This was our first time renting a car abroad, and we are considered ‘young drivers’. We were going in circles with who to book with as all the reviews for car rental in Madeira are very poor, and those that aren’t are extremely expensive. Booked through Indigo Cars which meant we could hire with a debit rather than credit card, and was pleasantly surprised by the ease and friendliness of the service for a great price. Easy pickup directly from airport, and free of charge change to slightly later drop off after realising bag check in times. No scamming for extra purchases or invisible damage, a surprisingly honest car rental company. I would recommend to anyone looking to hire a car in Madeira.

Sales agent нам все пояснила. Була дуже ввічлива, навіть жартували і говорили про острів Мадейра. Хлопці на паркінгу дуже швидко пригнали машину, оглянули, пояснили і віддали ключі. Гарний досвід
