How to find a cheap car hire deal in Campinas

  • Grab a cheap rental car in Campinas and hit the road for around £210 a day. From solo rides to family outings, we'll help you find the right rental for your plans.

  • £21 is the cheapest daily price you'll find for a rental in Campinas.

  • Staying on a bit longer? Pick up a weekly rental from £143 and take the time to discover more.

  • To score the best price on a Campinas car hire, try to book ahead. Rates generally rise as your travel dates approach, and any last-minute deals can vanish like a disappearing act.

  • Localiza, Movida and Unidas are some of the most popular providers in the city. They're a great starting point for comparing offers.

  • Whether you choose Localiza or a different supplier, be sure to check the coverage on your Campinas car hire. Some companies include a collision damage waiver (CDW), while others charge extra for it.

  • Choosing a one-way car hire is often a great hack for cheaper deals. Simply click 'Return car to a different location.' Providers often have to move vehicles from one branch to another, which means you can lock in some great one-way prices on a car for rent in Campinas.

  • Spend less on fuel by picking a vehicle that offers a 'Fair fuel policy.' You collect your ride with a full tank and refill it before drop-off, so you're only paying for what you use.

  • Hit the road without counting the miles and racking up additional charges. Go to the 'Policies' filter and choose 'Unlimited mileage' to find a ride that lets you roam without limits.

  • Medium: A solid choice when you want something that has a few more features but is still easy to drive. This category covers compact and intermediate models that offer a little extra leg room compared to smaller options.

  • Large: Long drives are effortless in this Campinas car hire category. Also known as full-size, they've got the engine power for lengthy trips. The extra legroom and comfort make them a top choice for families and groups of friends.

  • SUV: When adventure calls, an SUV answers. It's your perfect road trip buddy, ready for country roads, highways, and everything in between. These sports utility vehicles also come with extra space and improved safety features.

Insurance and optional extras

  • Car rental excess insurance isn't mandatory, but it's worth considering. If your car is damaged, no matter how minor, it can help you avoid paying a hefty excess fee. Different Campinas car hire providers have different insurance policies and coverage levels, so check the terms before booking.

  • Make travel easier when you rent a car in Campinas by adding a few nifty extras. Think things like a GPS unit to be your trusty co-pilot, or reverse cameras that make parking feel effortless.

Good to know

  • Check each provider's age requirements before booking your car hire in Brazil. Rules can vary, and extra charges or restrictions may apply if you're a younger driver. At the start of your search, just uncheck the 'Driver aged between 25–70' filter and enter your age to browse your options.

  • Bringing the kids with you? Car seat laws differ from place to place, and the best setup may depend on their height, age and weight. Find out if you need to add one to your Campinas car hire booking.

  • You'll need some documents when you pick up your ride. As a general rule, bring a valid driver's licence, a credit card with room for the security deposit (most companies don't accept debit cards), and another form of photo ID. Your booking confirmation will spell it all out.

  • Driving in Brazil can seem unfamiliar if it's your first time. Be aware that traffic travels on the right side of the road.

  • Local speed limits are usually about 45kph (30mph) in built-up areas and around 110kph (70mph) on highways. Always check the posted signs, as limits may vary.

  • Avoid getting behind the wheel if your plans involve alcohol. Brazil has a zero-tolerance approach to drinking and driving, and fines may apply.

  • Try to travel outside high-traffic periods for a faster run. 6pm is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.

  • You'll be using the Brazilian real (BRL) for everything you buy on your trip. You may find it useful to carry a mix of cash and cards so you always have a backup option.
