Providers will usually request that anyone looking to hire a car will have the appropriate documentation to complete their vehicle hire booking. A driver will always have to show proof of their full driving licence that’s been valid for at least one year. In addition, a provider will usually request a form of legitimate identification that corresponds with the details of your driving licence; an appropriate and legitimate example is a passport. This passport must be in date and valid throughout the duration of your trip to Cinque Terre.
If you are looking for car hire in Cinque Terre, then you’ll commonly find most of the hire locations are located within the city centre. There is a wide selection of possible providers available, and they’re all found within close proximity to each other. They can specifically be found in regions like Quartiere Del Torretto and Favaro, as well as others. Make sure to choose a convenient and easily accessible location to pick up your car hire, as you’ll usually find providers request you return the vehicle to the same location.
There is a very minimal number of petrol stations in Cinque Terre, so make sure to fill up your vehicle with fuel as soon as you see a place where it’s possible to do so. Upon driving your car hire away, you will usually have to pay a fee or deposit for the petrol in your hire vehicle. Alternatively, some providers might request you match the amount of fuel on the return of your vehicle that was originally in the tank at the time of pick up.

What is driving like in Cinque Terre?
Those looking to drive around Cinque Terre in their hired car will usually find small winding roads. Cars aren’t the most common form of transport around the village, so you’ll usually find the roads are very quiet, meaning drivability is good, and you won’t be at risk of encountering major traffic. Whilst most roads can comfortably fit two cars, some roads can only comfortably fit one, so make sure to drive with ease and caution. Drivers around Cinque Terre will find vehicles are right-side drive, meaning you must drive on the left-hand side of the road. You must always give way to the right on approach to roundabouts.
How old do you have to be to hire a car in Cinque Terre?
Italy is one of few European countries that have accessible car hire to young passengers. Commonly, providers who offer vehicles for hire will usually not serve those under the age of 21. However, there are selective companies that will have car hire options available to those as young as 18. These drivers will need to have held their licence for at least one year. In addition to this requirement, drivers under the age of 25 should expect to see an additional fee at the time of their booking, also known as a young driver’s sub charge fee. Alternatively, your car category type and specific vehicle choice are sometimes only accessible to passengers over the age of 25.
