We appreciate that flexibility while travelling is important. That’s why many reservations provide a total refund if you cancel a minimum of six hours before collecting the car. You may want to go through the cancellation policy though as there are some exceptions. If you can’t see any details there, have a look on our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Rome?
Whatever meets your needs! Go for an intermediate or full-size if you’re travelling with the family, or scale up to a premium for sleek sophistication. Or, choose an economy vehicle — the most booked home in Rome. Affordable and with terrific mileage, they’re a good match for solo travellers, couples or anyone else who doesn’t require a whole lot of room. They’re especially suited to exploring cities. Zipping into cramped parking spots will be a walk in the park!
Where can I go on a road trip from Rome?
Rome has plenty to keep you on the move, but don’t limit yourself to one place. Grab a set of wheels and head off to discover what else awaits in the wider region. Here are some ideas:

  • Randolph is roughly 113 kilometres from Rome. Renowned attractions like Mount Washington State Park should be high on your list here.
  • Situated 113 kilometres away, North Conway is also a favourite with travellers. Make time to get to Cranmore Mountain Resort while you’re in town. It’s one of the reasons people love this colourful city.
  • Make tracks to Herring Cove Beach for a day out in nature. Pack a picnic to enjoy or just recharge your batteries in the fresh air. From Rome, it’s around 290 kilometres away.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Rome with Expedia?
Expedia makes it simple to compare costs, offers and home providers, and to check customer recommendations. Bundle your Rome car rental with flight or hotel bookings to save even more.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Rome?
Rome rules state drivers must be 21 and over to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect a surcharge and stricter home conditions. Most companies impose a young renter fee on top of the car rental rate. This covers the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car classes (like compact and economy) are available to young renters, restrictions generally apply to luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Rome?
Two things — a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of alternative coverage if you choose to opt out. Make sure you check your policy requirements to avoid any issues.
What is the cheapest car rental in Rome?
AU$126 and AU$153 were the two lowest daily prices picked up by car rental customers in Rome within the past seven days. These rates were available on Expedia, with a holiday home starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Rome?
You can. We partner with quality suppliers that offer weekly and monthly holiday homes for all categories of cars. Pick up one of our long-term car rental deals and discover every turn of Rome — or way beyond!
Where can I find a Rome car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to check the age policy of the Rome holiday home providers you’re considering. If you’re under 25 be aware that some will charge additional costs. It’s good to know this before collecting the vehicle so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Each holiday home car company has its own policies for young drivers, so it pays to do your research.
Can I drive in Rome with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the U.S, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S., note that you’ll also need to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the car must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 or older in many states to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the car rental website before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse off-road areas with your car rental. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
