Usually, you have to be at least 21 years old to rent a vehicle in Italy. Being younger isn't always a deal-breaker — just expect some extra rules or charges. Check the suppliers' terms and conditions before you book.
If you're bringing the kids along, check if you need to add a car seat to your Naples car hire reservation. Whether required by local laws or not, they're always the safest way for little ones to ride.
Bring the right documents to avoid delays at pick-up. You'll generally need your physical driver's licence (no screenshots) and another form of photo ID. Have a credit card ready for the deposit too. If anything extra is required, you'll find it in your booking.
Spend some time getting acquainted with your rental. Adjust your seat and mirrors, find the lights and blinkers, and get comfortable with its handling before you set off. And importantly, stick to the right side of the road in Italy.
Follow the local speed limits. Most of the time that's around 45kph in built-up areas and 125kph or so on highways, unless signed otherwise.
In Italy, the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit is 0.05%. If you think you'll be drinking, get someone else to do the driving or arrange a ride-share or taxi instead.
One of the busiest times for traffic in this destination is around 8am. Make travel easier by steering clear of peak periods.
