Top tips for hiring a car in Abruzzo

  • Abruzzo Airport (PSR) is a major transportation hub in Pescara, Italy, so it is a great location to hire a rental car for trips within the region. Once you have landed at Abruzzo Airport, you will have access to several car rental desks located right inside the airport terminal, in the arrivals hall, which are therefore easily identifiable without the need for shuttle service. After choosing your car rental provider, the trained staff members at the rental counter will help you fill out the necessary paperwork and lead you to your rental car at the airport's parking garage.
  • Driving in Abruzzo can be pretty tough, especially during peak hours. The region's stunning scenery and endearing villages draw tourists and residents, resulting in increased peak-hour traffic congestion. On weekdays, rush hour in Abruzzo usually takes place in the early morning from around 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and in the late afternoon from around 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. During these periods, major roads in the region, including the A24 highway, the A25 highway, and the SS16 Adriatica coastal road, encounter heavy traffic, making commutes more difficult and time-consuming. You should therefore plan your drives outside of rush hour times to avoid the associated congestion.
  • For driving in Abruzzo, a region known for its varied terrain and road conditions, an ideal car model would be an SUV. The region's hilly terrain and occasionally rugged roads require a vehicle with good traction and stability, and the SUV's all-wheel-drive system and sophisticated safety features make it well-suited to such conditions. In addition, an SUV's spacious and comfortable interior provides adequate space for both passengers and their luggage, making it perfect for longer journeys and exploring the gorgeous countryside.
  • In Abruzzo, according to Italian law governing passenger safety, .seat belts must be worn at all times while traveling in a vehicle. Children under 36 kg. (97 lbs.) or 150 cm (4 ft 9 in) are required to use appropriate child restraints, including child car seats and boosters. Child car seats are required for children weighing less than 18 kg. (48.5 lbs.). Children who weigh more than 18 kg. (48.5 lbs.) may use booster seats, which raise them to an appropriate height for buckling their seat belts.
  • Book your car hire in Abruzzo at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
