 | | Car Rentals in Rome: Exploring the Ancient City on Your Own | | | Drivers must be 25 to rent from most car companies in Italy. Younger drivers are sometimes accepted but they will be charged an additional fee. A credit card is required at the time of renting. A valid driver's license that is accepted by the Italian government is another necessary. It is best to check first to see if your country's licenses are accepted. In addition to a license, an International Driving Permit is required if the license is in a language other than Italian.
Most of the major car rental companies in Rome offer vehicles with a driver included for a higher rental rate. Hiring a car with a driver can be a good way to have freedom in getting around while not worrying about the driving yourself.
Cars will be checked for damage before and after rental. Moreover, the vehicle should be returned with a full tank of gas.
Italian rental cars carry a limited insurance policy, but extra coverage is available. The cost of this is usually added on per day. | | | |  | | |
