Question 9

Is it worthwhile to book a rental car in Sicily?

Accepted Answer

One could go so far as to say that car rental in Sicily is essential, as the public transport is irregular, even in the major towns and cities. It’s also the only viable way of really exploring all the tourist attractions on this fabled Italian island, much of which is very rural. So most of the smaller towns are only accessible by car, or by taking a long bus trip from one of the larger cities like Palermo. Other towns that you can reach very easily on the main roads across the island include Enna and Noto. If you choose cheap car hire in Sicily, you can save in other ways too. You won’t have to spend money on taxis, which you would inevitably need to get from bus or train stops to the attractions you want to visit, and you’ll be able to do so much more with your holiday time.

Question 10

What are the driving conditions like in Sicily?

Accepted Answer

Driving in Sicily is very much a mixed bag. There are the official traffic laws, and then there are what most travel writers refer to as the traditional rules of the road passed down from one generation to the next. So you won’t have to be on your toes too much, as it’s not a business island, but you will have to get used to some local quirks. Sicilian drivers can adopt a somewhat casual attitude to things like giving way at roundabouts in the right direction, merging very slowly from slip roads and even ignoring red traffic lights. This might sound quite frightening, but all you really have to do is remember to look out for these things, keep your wits about you and blend in if you’ve chosen to use car rental in Sicily. And while you’re at it, bear in mind that you’ll also be driving on the right, so it’s perhaps wise to choose a manual transmission when you book car hire in Sicily.

Question 11

What laws should I be aware of when driving in Sicily?

Accepted Answer

As a part of Italy, Sicily’s driving laws are the same as those on the mainland (mixed with the aforementioned driving traditions.) One of the laws that you must pay close attention to is the Italian ZTL regulation. A Zona Traffico Limitato is a strictly no-parking zone in the old centres of Italian cities. These are closely monitored by camera, so even if you make a mistake and don’t get a ticket for it, these misdemeanours are still followed up, up to a year later. Speed limits are also take very seriously by the local constabulary, so make sure you adhere to them. Not only will you get a ticket for exceeding limits, this will also attract an additional administration charge with the company from whom you hire a car in Sicily. To be extra careful, check the Sicilian traffic authorities website for law changes before you leave.

Question 12

What documents do I need to hire a car in Sicily?

Accepted Answer

To be eligible for car rental in Sicily, you’ll need to be at least 18 years old, and must show a valid driving licence and international driving permit. You should also take out vehicle cover as part of your package. Do a car hire comparison too, as some companies will charge extra if you’re under 25. If you’re over that age, cheap car rental is freely available.

Question 13

When did momondo last update prices for cars in Sicily?

Accepted Answer

Question 14

How many operators does momondo search for cars in Sicily?

Accepted Answer

Question 15

How old do you have to be to hire a car in Sicily?

Accepted Answer

The minimum age for drivers varies by country, including Sicily. In numerous EU countries, drivers must be 18 years old. To rent a car overseas, you'll generally need to be at least 21, and if you're under 25, a young driver surcharge may be applied. We advise that you read the policy of your chosen rental company before making a reservation.

Question 16

What documentation or ID do you need to rent a car in Sicily?

Accepted Answer

When renting a car in Sicily, all drivers must present a full valid driving license. An International Driving Permit is required if the driving license is written in a language different to that of the country of rental and may be necessary to avoid the risk of potential fines. If you are renting abroad, you may also need to provide proof of return travel and accommodation information during your stay. We always recommend checking with the individual rental company you are booking with.
