  • Naples Airport: Serving the multi-million metropolis of Southern Italy, Naples Airport has flights by more than 30 airlines, including low-cost carriers like Volotea, easyJet, and Ryanair.
  • Venice Airport: Serving not just the famous floating city, but the larger Northeastern Italian region, Venice Airport handled about 12 million travelers in 2019. It is also called Marco Polo Airport after the famous traveler who hailed from the city.
  • Overland: If your rental car provider permits, it’s possible to rent a car in a neighboring country and then drive to Italy. Some large international airports near Italy are Nice Airport in France, Zurich Airport in Switzerland, and Ljubljana Airport in Slovenia.

Top cities and places to visit

  • Rome: Full of traces of its ancient grandeur, Rome is a great history, culture, and culinary destination.
  • Venice: One of the most unique cities in Europe, Venice is full of wonderful art and architecture, and also provides access to the wider Veneto region in the Italy’s northeast.
  • Tuscany: From countless arts and culture monuments in Florence to vineyards and classical farmer villages, Tuscany is the picture that most people have in mind when they think of Italy.
  • Naples and Campania: Proud yet hospitable, Campania is a place of ancient sites and delicious cuisine, as well as beautiful Naples and Pompeii.
  • The South: Showing traces of its Greek heritage and independent nature, Southern Italy is very different from north in atmosphere, and offers mountain villages, wild nature, and coasts of three different seas.

Travelers most often choose the Fiat Panda, while the Ford Fiesta and the Fiat 500 are also popular.

Driver license requirements

  • Italy recognizes foreign driver’s licenses if they are written in a Latin alphabet and if you’re visiting on a trip that’s shorter than six months. If you’re visiting on a longer trip or if you’re a permanent resident of Italy, you need to acquire a local driver’s license.
  • If your driver’s license is in another alphabet (e.g., Cyrillic or Arabic), you need to have an International Driving Permit (IDP).
  • Even if you have an IDP, you still need to also provide your valid driver’s license from your country
  • You must carry your driver’s license, not a copy, with you at all times. 
  • You need to have had your driver’s license for at least two years.
  • Some rental car suppliers charge a young driver fee for drivers between the ages of 22 and 25 and a senior driver fee for drivers over the age of 65.
  • There may be additional requirements depending on the car supplier and category, so make sure to check the terms and conditions before booking.

Crossing Borders

Italy is bordered by France, Switzerland, Austria, and Slovenia, as well as San Marino and the Vatican City, two enclaves inside it. Like Italy, France, Switzerland, Austria, and Slovenia are all members of the Schengen Area, meaning that three entry requirements for these four countries are the same as for Italy. The microstates of San Marino and Vatican City are not members of the Schengen Area, but their entry requirements are the same as those for Italy.

Some car rental providers allow you to cross national borders and even drop off your car in a different country, while others don’t. If you’d like to cross a national border during your rental period, make sure to check the terms and conditions before booking a car. Learn more about cross-border rentals in our FAQ section.

Most popular types of rental car

The most popular rental car type in Mainland Italy is an Economy, followed by Mini and Compact.

Top driving routes

  • Milan - Venice (266 km / 165 mi) Milan might be near the Alps, but in just three hours you can reach Venice on the Adriatic Coast.
  • Naples - Bari (257 km / 160 mi) Going between these two large southern cities, you’ll cross all of the Italian peninsula from east to west (or vice versa).

  • Book your rental car well in advance
  • Plan your route before you go
  • Know your fuel and mileage requirements

With its sparkling waters of the Adriatic and Ionian seas and the bustling, typical whitewashed towns, Puglia will definitely capture your heart.

The staff took the time to explain to us the different options for the inurance which definitely is a must when you rent a car and especially in a foreign country. They also completed the car inspection with me which made the transfer of the vehicle transparent to both parties. The return was smooth as butter. No problems and super fast. The car was not new, but it was hood enough to driventhe whole Amalfi Coast without any issues. Would recommand to anyone.

The car rental place is very easy to find on the 4th floor of car rental "B". Easy walk from any terminal. Pick up and drop off are extremely easy as well. Excellent customer service with super fast check in and check out. Don't waste your money on an American company that takes forever to check in or drop off. I travel with friends that used B*dg** and it took them an hour to get a car. I had mine in 15 minutes and only paid a third the deposit they had to pay. Always go with the locals when in doubt.

We originally wanted to rent a Mini Cooper but they weren't available when we got to the rental agent and they put us in a Fiat 500L which is small for American standards but not so small in Italy. I would recommend getting a small car because the streets in Italy are tiny. Especially if traveling to places like Amalfi Coast and even in Tuscany. In Tuscany when you are not on a main road the side roads are small and and it gets very tight when cars are coming in the opposite direction. The smaller the car the better. Normal Fiat would be perfect, even with a decent amount of luggage.

The little Fiat 500L was perfect for looking around the mountains in Italy, and making it around the narrow roads in the mountain towns. Yet, it didn't 'feel' small inside - there was room for all our luggage and then some. We'd recommend this type of car for travelers.

Pisa is a location that in my opinion should not be stayed in for longer than 1 day and the tower is a must to go up. The beautiful walled City of Lucca is a maze of street with quaint shops and restaurants or further north of Lucca is Barga, (little Scotland), where they host the Barga Jazz festival as well as the fish and chip festival or keep an eye out for "Lago Di Vagli" where the sunken village of "Fabriche Di Careggine" is reported o be exposed sometime in 2021, last time it was exposed was in 1994. The must place to visit however is Florence. All the destinations are within easy reach of Pisa.

Take a really deep breath before driving in Naples - they kinda have their own driving rules, which is kinda scary when you come from a regulated country where traffic rules are generally followed.

Fantastic location close to mountains and the sea and at a stone's throw from other wonderful cities such as Lucca. Pisa is a quaint and beautiful city with lots to experience, and the local cuisine, and icecream, is amazing!

Definitely rent a car...so much to see in Sicily...this is my third visit to Sicily and I found that having a car is much better than and cheaper than hiring a car and driver to take me to places of interest. The drivers are not licensed tour guides so they can not accompany you on your visits to archeological sites, cities, etc. Also, a car gives you more freedom to come and go at your leisure. The auto strada is well marked. Don't be afraid to drive! You won't get lost!

Routes on googlemaps look scary, due to tunnels and roads looping up and down hills. It's not as complicated as it looks. Roads are narrow, tight bends, fast drivers. You need to stay alert, but it's manageable.

Not a great city to drive in - lots of traffic in narrow streets, closed off streets creating one-way roads, very limited parking and generally 'loose' driving styles. If you're comfortable with busy city driving and parking in tight spots, go for it. Get a small car.

I rented a car in Rome, FCO airport and drove to Florence and surrounding country side. Italy is a beautiful country to drive through, drivers are courteous, roads are well marked. The whole driving experience was great. Just keep an eye open for the scooters, they tend to pass on all sides in the city.

We travelled from Verona station initially to the Friuli region and then the Trento region and enjoyed visiting both areas. We have travelled quite extensively by car in Italy and found the likelihood of incurring speeding fines and possibly traffic fines, high as there are so many speed cameras. Consequently, we used cruise control quite often to try keep our speed within the 30/50Km speed limits which are so commonly seen.

Tuscany is a beautiful place full of towns and cities to explore as well as countryside and panoramic views. The roads are pretty good and motorways link most major towns. The signage is not always easy to comprehend , so google maps is very useful. Be aware of signage with times when some city/town central areas do not allow cars to be driven
