This 2026, Lisbon is becoming more popular than ever amongst young travellers and it's easy to see why. At CarJet, we know how much a trip can change when you have the freedom of your own wheels. That’s why we’ve made it simple for drivers in Lisbon that are under 26 to find the perfect car hire without any fuss.

If you’re under 26 and looking to hire a car in Lisbon, just follow these two steps and don't worry about overcomplicating things:

1. In our search box, untick the box that says "Driver aged between 26 and 69" and enter your actual age.
2. Click "Search" and we’ll show you all the offers from suppliers who happily accept drivers in your age group.

Keep in mind that every car hire company has its own set of rules. It’s always a good idea to check out the "Hire Conditions" on each deal to see any specific requirements or possible young driver surcharges.

Lisbon is a fantastic city to explore, whether you’re just there for the weekend or planning a road trip. Since the very heart of the city is famously walkable and has several restricted driving zones, the best way to do it is to explore the centre on foot first. Then, once you’re ready to see the sights that the tour buses miss, you can pick up your car and head out to the Riviera.

Here are the absolute "must-sees" in central Lisbon before you grab your keys and head for the coast:

Start in Alfama, where the winding alleys are perfect for exploring on foot. From there, it's easy (if steep!) to walk up to São Jorge Castle for the best views in town. Head back down through the grand Praça do Comércio on the riverfront, then finish your morning in Chiado and Bairro Alto for a bit of shopping and a world-famous Pastel de Nata. It’s the perfect way to soak up the city’s energy before you pick up your keys and head out to the coast.

Once you've explored the city centre, get behind the wheel and the rest of the region opens up. Start by crossing the bridge to the Christ the King Statue, where you’ll get an impressive bird’s-eye view of the entire city skyline. From there, head over to the LX Factory, a cool industrial hub perfect for a pit-stop lunch, before driving out to the lush Botanical Gardens for some quiet. To top it all off, no trip is complete without the drive to Sintra to see the National Palace of Pena ; its vibrant colours and fairy-tale towers are the ultimate reward for heading out of the city centre.
