Brindisi car hires from £15/day

Like much of Italy, Brindisi is typified with small, picturesque roads. This means the best hire car choice for many travelers will be coupes, sedans, compacts, and other similar small vehicles. Larger cars may be a struggle to navigate on many of the smaller streets and may have to stop occasionally to let other cars pass. Parking is also a potential issue for large cars so make your life easier and go for a smaller vehicle.

The road trip from Brindisi to Catanzaro, the capital of the Calabria region in southern Italy, is a good one for road warriors to consider. One route via SS7/E90 west past Taranto traces the arc of the coast along the Ionian Sea to Sibari then turns inland becoming SS534. Picking up the E45 after you pass Masseria Nola, the route heads south along the instep of the Italian boot towards Catanzaro. This route covers approx. 4h each way, so choose a day and enjoy.

Remember to activate your hands-free mobile and think about getting a sat-nav system to help you navigate long road trips such as the one to Catanzaro. Never drink and drive and if you or a fellow passenger experiences an emergency while on the road, dial 112 for assistance.
