KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Salvador

  • A hire car is the most comfortable and efficient way to explore not only Salvador but also the more remote, secluded beaches in the area, as well as the rest of the incredible Bahia state. Embark on a road trip along the Coconut Coast, north of Salvador, with its miles and miles of stunning beaches, or drive to Chapada Diamantina National Park, which is 315 miles from Salvador, and make scenic stops along the way.
  • Most of the major car hire companies, including Avis and Hertz, can be found at Deputado Luís Eduardo Magalhães International Airport (SSA), which is located just over 17 miles from the city center. The car hire desks can be found in the Arrivals Hall of the airport’s main terminal. You will need an International Driver’s Permit to rent a car in Brazil. Make sure to request a GPS device that is set to English.
  • The streets in Salvador are quite hilly, so make sure you are confident driving under those conditions. Downtown also features many cobblestone streets. Watch out for one-way streets or pedestrian areas, as road signs can sometimes be confusing. Drivers going at a speed of 12 mph or less are allowed to run red lights between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. Avoid driving at night so as not to share the road with drunk drivers.
  • While traffic in Salvador may not be as bad as in other Brazilian cities like São Paulo, driving during rush hour is still quite chaotic and can easily add up to an hour to your travels. Plan your journey in advance and avoid driving into the city center or to the airport between 6:30 a.m. and 9:30 a.m. Evening rush hour peaks at 6 p.m., but avoid driving anytime between 4:30 p.m. and 7 p.m.
  • Book your car hire in Salvador at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Economy hire cars in Salvador are around 59% cheaper than other car types, on average

FAQs about hiring a car in Salvador

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Salvador?

    If you’re not used to manual transmission, make sure you book an automatic vehicle in advance. If you’re just driving in and around Salvador, a mid-size economy car will be enough for your needs.

Very bad experience. First, no one spoke English at the counter. We received a car and headed to the first stop. However, after a first quick stop, an engine failure occurred. It was impossible to continue and neither to join the company with our international cellphone. With the help of a local (thankfully) we were able to call a tow truck. We headed then to another Movida office where we receive the "same" car, but in fact with less options. It was impossible to do a upgrade there. After 10 days, we observe that the adhesive around the front wheels (left and right) peeled off. The plastic if the front right totally peeled off on the road while driving and it could have been very dangerous. We were able to repare it by ouserself (the company fault for giving us a faulty car and not our fault). They were not really comprehensive and we are not sure if we will have to pay or not. Hopefully, only good thing was the guy at the drop off that was kind. It was the worst experience I have had in a rental car company.

Car hire insurance in Salvador

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) & Theft Protection Waiver

Some Salvador car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend always be aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Salvador.

Deductible

Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a no-deductible option to your Salvador car hire.
