It's rare I give 5 stars to a car hire company but Sixt Porto airport deserves it. The van that collects you is spotless. The lady at reception (Bruno I think) was lovely. So friendly and happy and explained everything completely. No hard sell for extra insurance which I had already. The car a VW was spotless. Easy and quick to drop the car back and no delays dropping me back to the airport. Everything was so clean and well run.
