Armored car hire in Portugal

Lisbon and the coast to its west, from Estoril to Cascais, are home to a large international community and the natural starting point for an armored programme in Portugal. Sintra's estates in the hills and Comporta's villas to the south complete the picture.

Our Lisbon page covers the airport, the steep historic districts and the routes to the coast in detail.

The coast between Cascais and Sintra, and the rice fields and dunes of Comporta, have become home to many families who have moved to Portugal in recent years, so a booking can serve residents as well as short-term visitors. Visiting investors and their advisers can book too, for example around residency appointments.

Porto, in the north, combines a busy business community with the vineyards of the Douro valley. The Algarve, in the south, is a long stretch of coast with golf resorts and villas, reached through Faro Airport.

Both are covered on request, and the vehicle can travel with you between them for a programme that crosses the country.

The Douro valley, upstream from Porto, is reached by winding roads through the vineyards, and an armored SUV is usually the better choice there.

Spain is Portugal's only neighbour by land and one of Nero Line's two home markets. Lisbon to Madrid, or the Algarve to Seville, are natural routes for a combined programme, and the vehicle stays with you across the border.

If your driver takes the vehicle into Portugal, the licence must match its weight, and most high-protection vehicles exceed 3,500 kg maximum authorised mass, which calls for category C1. Drivers who speak Portuguese, Spanish or English can be requested, subject to availability.
