Car Rental Company at FCO

[TroubleT]

Would you please recommend the car rental company? We need to rent a car from FCO and drive to Florence. The car will be returned in about a week at FCO location. I know only about Hertz. Any other options in Italy (good and affordable company)?

 

Thanks!

We've always rented through Autoeurope.com. They show the rates from different rental companies. I just started a dummy booking for a week from FCO (using Aug. 6-13), and Hertz cost about $60 more than the least expensive. Autoeurope has a very good reputation and stands behind what they sell, regardless of which specific rental company you opt for from them.

 

A word of caution - if you've driven in Italy before, and specifically Florence, you already know that having a car in Florence is a pain in the a**. Very restrictive regarding where you can drive and park. And if you violate their restricted zones, the fines can be very high.
