Top tips for hiring a car in Lake Garda

  • If you are travelling around Lake Garda with an infant, you will need to take heed of the Italian laws pertaining to children in car seats. In Italy, the law states children need a mandatory car seat or booster seat until the age of 12. If they are over 1.5 metres tall, they can use the seat belt. Car seats can easily be pre-arranged from any of the car hire companies at a small surcharge. You may want to include your spouse or friend as a second driver too and get to see some of those beautiful Lake Garda views.
  • You can ensure you drop your Lake Garda car hire off at the same time as your collection if you want to save money. Most car hire companies will charge you per 24-hour period, and if you are a few hours late, there’s a chance you will be charged for an extra day’s hire. Also, it is advisable to make sure you pay attention to the bodywork inspection before the car drives off the lot, so you are well aware of what condition the car was in when you collected it.
  • If planning on taking your Lake Garda car hire for a drive further out around the region, consider toll gate fees. Make sure you always have enough cash on you to get through tolls, as they can be quite pricey in Italy, and in more remote areas, you will find they often don’t accept credit cards.
  • The documentation required when you hire a car in Lake Garda will be your international drivers licence for Italy, your own valid national driving licence from your home country and  photographic identification such as a passport. Then, of course, you will need to provide an international credit card with sufficient credit.
