About Renting a Car at Lisbon Oriente

Lisboa Oriente is an excellent starting point for exploring Lisbon and its surroundings, with Santiago Calatrava station's iconic architecture welcoming you upon arrival. From here you can reach Lisbon's historic center in just ten minutes via Avenida Infante Dom Henrique along the Tejo River, while Parque das Nações with its modern buildings and long beachfront promenades is right next door. If you take the A1 motorway north you reach Sintra after approximately 45 minutes, with its fairytale palaces and UNESCO-listed cultural landscape.

The coastline south towards Setúbal and the Arrábida peninsula, known for crystal-clear waters and dramatic cliffs, takes around one hour via the A2 motorway. The best time to visit is April to June or September to October, when temperatures are pleasant and tourist crowds somewhat lower.

We compare prices from all major providers at Lisbon Oriente so you can see the total cost upfront — including insurance, fuel terms and any extras. Most bookings include free cancellation up to 48 hours before pickup, giving you flexibility if your plans change.
