The Smartest Way to Hire a Car in Florence: DoYouItaly

If you want to get the best out of your hire, keep these simple tips in mind:

Book as early as you can: Prices in Florence shoot up as the dates approach. Booking in advance is the easiest way to bag an unbeatable deal of up to 75% off.
Check the petrol policy: To avoid any surprises, look for "Full-to-Full" options so you only pay for the fuel you actually use.
Be a bit flexible: Sometimes picking up the car just an hour earlier or later, or choosing a different nearby office, can drop the price by a significant amount.
Let us do the legwork : Use DoYouItaly to compare all the biggest suppliers in one go, it’s much faster than checking every site individually.

Exploring Tuscany: Your Florence Guide

Before we get into the classic sights, there are a couple of things happening in 2026 you should definitely keep in your calendar:

Catch the electric Maggio Musicale festival between April and July, or head to Palazzo Strozzi for the massive Mark Rothko exhibition running until August.

Once you’ve grabbed your keys, here is where to head:

The Big Ones: You’ve got to see the Duomo and Ponte Vecchio, but do yourself a favour and get there at the crack of dawn or late evening. It’s much more peaceful and the light is brilliant for photos.
A Local Favourite: For a different perspective, drive 15 minutes up the hill to Fiesole. It’s a lovely little spot and the view over the whole of Florence is actually better than from the centre.
Proper Food: Use the car to hit the Chianti region. It’s right on your doorstep and packed with rustic trattorias where the food is authentic and the scenery is unbeatable.
Hit the Road: You aren't stuck in the city! Explore the medieval walls of Lucca or dip your toes in the Tuscan coast.

Pick up your car at the airport or in the city, it’s up to you!

Airports are usually the most convenient, but city centre offices can offer better prices. Compare both and choose the one that suits you best.

Hire a luxury car in Florence

If you prefer a premium or high-end vehicle, select the “Premium” category in the search tool. DoYouItaly will show you all the exclusive options available.

Can you hire a car in Florence with a foreign licence?
