Bergamo car hires from £10/day

Italian cities are perfect for smaller, compact cars like a Fiat 500, which is also a beloved car of many Italians and is seen pretty often. The perks of a smaller car are that drivers can squeeze through the narrow lanes and find suitable parking spots more easily. Additionally, a smaller car will consume less gas, which is pretty expensive in Italy.

Speed limits are always indicated on posted signs on the right-hand side, but general regulations permit 50 km/h (31 mph) within city limits, but only 30 km/h (18 mph) in some zones like around schools or close to the center. On rural country roads, 90 km/h (56 mph) is allowed, but road conditions can be poor in some regions, so adjust your speed if necessary. On freeways (called “autostrada” in Italy), 130 km/h (80 mph) is the maximum speed limit.

There are free on-street parking opportunities in Bergamo as well as parking lots where vehicles can also be left for a longer period of time. The Via Camozzi or Piazza Libertà, for instance, have parking lots nearby which offer plenty of space and which have an approximate daily maximum fee between €15 and €20 ($17-22).

On average a car hire in Bergamo costs £21 per day.

To save fuel with your cheap car hire in Bergamo, consider how much driving you will be doing on your holiday. If you are not doing much driving it’s not advisable to take the full tank policy, as you will pay upfront for a full tank of fuel and not be refunded for any left over when you return it. The more popular policy is the full-to-full route. Here you control the fuel yourself and return the car with the same level of fuel you found it with.

Italy has strict child safety rules for driving. When in Bergamo with children, ensure they have the appropriate car seat for their weight. This will be a backwards-facing seat for babies under 9 kgs, a forward-facing car seat for babies under 18 kgs and a booster seat for children under 150 cm in height. This can be as old as 10 for some children, so do not judge according to their age. Your car hire company will have car seats and can install too.
