Italy is a country that has long been associated with wonderful food, a sunny Mediterranean climate, beautiful beaches, and famous wines. In fact, that’s not all there is to this spectacular country. Italy truly proves itself as one of the most versatile and fascinating destinations in the world. Enjoy everything this wonderful destination has to offer with the flexibility of car hire in Italy.

If the culture of bygone days is what you’re looking for then you’re in the right place. Italy’s heritage as the former seat of the vast Roman Empire means there is history galore to be unearthed by the traveller. And what better place to start than in Rome, where the Coliseum, the Pantheon and the Trevi Fountain are just some of the testaments to Rome’s empirical past that still grace its streets today. You can reach the centre of Rome quickly with a cheap car hire in Italy from its international airport, about 35kms from the city.

If art and architecture are more your focus then Florence will captivate you with its fabulous Renaissance buildings, Baroque facades, and vast art collections and museums that make it a cultural centre not just of Italy, but of the world.

If you want to work on your tan then some Mediterranean sun is what you need, and you have the choice of the island of Sardinia to the south of the main peninsula of Italy, the Amalfi coast, or the Neapolitan coast. All offer fabulous beaches, beautiful seascapes and affordable resorts you can access by car rental from regional airports.
