Hire a car in Pico with Hertz

Pico is a Portuguese island in the Azores, renowned for its dramatic scenery, much of which is provided by the mighty summit of Mount Pico (the largest mountain on Portuguese territory). The island has a black hue due to its volcanic history, leading to the title 'Black Island'. Whale watching is big business in Pico, along with travellers looking for dramatic countryside and year round clement temperatures. The UNESCO vineyards are highly rated, giving Pico's wine exports world acclaim. Car hire in Pico is popular with those wishing to explore the vast mountain scenery. Hiring a car in Pico is available from the airport or in Madalena.

Mount Pico is the overwhelming landmark of the island, dominating the skyline for miles around. Whale spotting is a big tourist pastime here, and the whaler's Museum in Lajes Do Pico provides a valuable insight into the island's past; Lajes is on the southern coast of the island for anyone hiring a car in Pico. On the adjacent northern coast of Pico, you'll find the Gruta das Torres, which is an underground cave, or lava tube to be more exact. For those interested in Pico's wine producing heritage, the Museu Do Vinho may be a worthwhile detour. Rent a car in Pico and explore the rich natural beauty of Pico's caves, vineyards and scenic plains.
