Auto Turistica Faialense
A well-respected local business, Auto Turistica serves – as suggested by its name – Faial, one of the nine islands making up the Portuguese archipelago of the Azores which is located in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean roughly midway between North America and Europe. The company has an office in the center of Horta, a rental desk at Horta Airport, and a desk in the terminal of the Port of Horta.
Auto Turistica is highly rated by our customers. The company won our Excellent Car Rental Service Award in 2023 and 2024 for its Horta Airport location.
Auto Turistica is rare in that it sometimes allows its vehicles to be taken to other islands like nearby Pico. Most rental companies don’t allow this. The company charges an additional fee for this and also requires that you seek permission in advance. It also offers one-way rentals on the island of Horta, so you can either pick up the car at the port and drop it off at the airport or vice versa.
