Top tips for hiring a car in Umbria
- When planning your trip to Umbria, you may want to think about when you are travelling there and if you will need any additional features added to the vehicle. We recommend considering air conditioning if you plan on visiting during summer, as it can get quite hot in Italy at this time of year. You may also want to get a GPS device to help you get around the local area, especially if you cannot speak Italian to ask for directions. If you are interested in any specialist seats or ramps, then you should get in touch with the hire company directly.
- A popular option when hiring a car in Umbria is to pick the vehicle up in one location and drop it off in another. Most hire companies are happy with this option, but they will need to you to specify where you are going to drop the vehicle off, otherwise they won’t let you do it. Dropping off in a different place can be very convenient for you, but you should consider that it may come with an additional cost, depending on the distance to the starting point.
- In general, the road quality in Italy is pretty good, but you should be aware that as you begin to travel through the mountainous areas of Umbria, you may find more roads in disrepair. For this reason, we encourage you to consider hiring an SUV or a 4x4 vehicle. This is especially true if you are going to be driving in winter when the area may receive snowfall.
- By organising to pick up a vehicle on arrival in Umbria, you may eliminate the need to wait around for public transport or taxis at the airport or bus station. Instead, you can go straight to pick up your car and get out of there quickly. This is particularly helpful if you arrive later at night, and should you arrive later than expected, we recommend that you get in touch with the local hire company to advise them to keep the car for you.
- Book your rental car in Umbria at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Off-airport rental car locations in Umbria are around 35% more expensive than airport locations on average
- Economy rental cars in Umbria are around 45% cheaper than other car types, on average

What is driving like in Umbria?
Driving in Umbria is generally fine to do. Of course, you must drive on the right-hand side of the road, and you will need to practise parking and turning on the other sides of the road, but in the countryside of Italy, people tend to drive calmer than they would typically do in the bigger cities. There are fewer traffic lights and complicated junctions, making your journey easier. Beeping and overtaking is common in Italy, so don’t be surprised if the locals do this, but we recommend that you just follow any street signs that you see, and stick to the laws, even if the locals don’t.
How old do you have to be to hire a car in Umbria?
In order to drive a car in Italy, you will need to be 18 years old, but many companies require the named drive of the hire vehicle to be at least 21 years old. Some of these companies will place a surcharge on the hire price if the driver is younger than 25. There is a 0.5 g/l alcohol limit for drinking and driving in Italy, but this is actually set at 0.00 for drivers who have held their licence for less than 3 years. Drivers that are not from the EU or EEA are required to show an International Driver’s Permit to be able to legally drive in Italy.
