Top tips for renting a car in Lombardy

  • Those that will be visiting Lombardy with young children will want to make sure that they are familiar with local car seat regulations. In Italy, all children must be in an appropriate car seat up until the age of 12. If a child is under the age of 12 but reaches a height of at least 1.5 meters (approximately 4 feet, 9 inches), they can use just a seatbelt instead of a car seat or a booster seat. The style of car seat that you will use will vary depending on your child’s age, height, and weight.
  • If you see a road that is named an ‘autostrade’, this means that it is not only a highway, but also a toll road. Any road that starts with an “A” and has a number following it is also an autostrade. When driving on one of these, you will want to be prepared to pay with either a pass or through a machine. In the Lombardy region, one of the most popular autostrades is the A4.
  • It is important to keep in mind that if you are renting a car between November 15 and April 15, even if you do not plan on driving to a mountain or ski resort, you are legally required to have winter tires or snow chains on your car in Italy. The car rental company itself will not enforce this, but you may receive a fine if you are caught without them, so make sure to ask for them if you will be visiting during this period.
  • When you go to top up your car’s gas tank, you will want to make sure that you are selecting the right type of gas. In Italy, including the Lombardy region, must cars run off of either ‘unleaded’ gasoline (petrol) or diesel. The green pumps are typically for unleaded, while the black pumps are typically for diesel.
  • Book your rental car in Lombardy at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Intermediate rental cars in Lombardy are around 22% cheaper than other car types, on average

  • Should I rent a car in Lombardy?

    Lombardy is rather rural and does not have extensive public transportation, so renting a car is one of the best ways to explore the area. Many individuals also choose to go on road trips in the region, so a car will make it easy for you to move all of your luggage and personal belongings with you. Plus, you will be able to travel throughout the area on your own time and won’t have to worry about waiting for trains or buses.

  • What is driving like in Lombardy?

    Many of the roads in the Lombardy region, particularly around the big lakes, are quite steep and narrow. You will want to be especially careful while driving, particularly if you are driving during a period where there is rain. During some months, the region can also become quite busy, so be prepared to encounter congestion or to drive slowly in order to avoid being caught in a collision. There is an ample amount of parking so it should not be difficult to find a spot.

  • How old do you have to be to rent a car in Lombardy?

    To rent a car in Italy, you are required to be at least 19 years old, but you may need to pay a daily young driver’s fee if you are under the age of 25. Keep in mind that if you do not have a driver’s license that was issued by Italy, you will need to have an international driver’s license in order to rent a car. If you will be using an international driver’s license, you will also need to present your passport, and the rental agency will make a photocopy of it for their records.
