KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Alba

  • Driving your car hire in Alba gives you the freedom to explore the town and its surrounding areas at your own pace. You can visit attractions, go on day trips, and discover hidden gems without relying on public transportation schedules. For example, approximately 30 km (18 miles) away, you can find the city of Asti, famous for its sparkling wines and annual Palio Horse Race. Hiring a car means that you don't have to wait for public transport, or travel in crowded trains or buses.
  • The closest airport to Alba is Turin Airport, where you'll find an Alba car hire for your trip. After landing, you will be able to book your Alba car hire from one of the several car hire companies’ offices, located in Arrivals, and inside the multi-storey car park. You can choose from major companies such as Avis, Hertz, and Sixt. The airport is located approximately 87 km (54 miles) northeast of Alba, and the drive to Alba will take you around 1 h 30 mins, depending on the traffic.
  • You'll find when driving your car hire in Alba that, like many Italian cities, the town has ZTL (Limited Traffic Zones). These areas are restricted to authorised vehicles, and entering without permission can result in fines. Pay attention to ZTL signs, and avoid driving into these restricted zones unless you have proper authorisation. However, hotel guests are permitted, so don’t worry if your hotel is located in the ZTL area. If you don't have authorisation for ZTL, then fines can be as much as €100 (£85) per passenger.
  • When driving your car hire in Alba, be sure to take care on the roads, especially on the narrow and winding streets around the historic centre. You should be extra careful navigating these streets, especially when passing or parking. Be aware of pedestrians, cyclists, and other vehicles sharing the road. Moreover, Italian drivers are often known for their assertiveness and occasional fast-paced driving. Therefore, be patient and use your indicators to signal your intentions, and yield to other drivers when necessary to avoid any potential accidents.
  • Mini hire cars in Alba are around 40% cheaper than other car types, on average

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Alba?

    Considering that the streets can at times be tight and difficult to travel on, opting for a car that is compact or mid-sized can be a good choice. A smaller car will be easier to manoeuvre and park in tight spaces. However, if you are planning on spending more time in your hired car or if you have a lot of luggage, then a larger car model may be more suited to your needs, and provide more comfort and space. This is especially true if you are travelling with a group or family.

  • What’s the speed limit in Alba?

    When driving your car hire in Alba, it is important to note that the speed limit within the town is typically 50 km/h (31 mph), unless otherwise indicated by signs. Outside the town of Alba and other urban areas in Italy, the speed limit is usually 90 km/h (56 mph). However, there are some roads where the speed limit may be lower, such as winding or narrow roads, where it could be reduced to 70 km/h (43 mph). On highways (autostrade), the speed limit is usually 130 km/h (81 mph), although it can vary depending on certain factors.

  • Where are the best places to park in Alba?

    There is a spacious free parking area available across from the Castelli Hotel on Corso Torino, which is situated at the entrance of the town. Another option is located near the train station on Corso Fratelli Bandiera, just a few steps away from the old town and city centre. However, this parking area tends to fill up quickly. Piazza Cristo Re is also a viable choice. Within the central part of the square, there are white-marked parking spaces that are free of charge. For the remaining spaces, there is a fee of around €0.90 (£0.80) per hour from 08:30 to 19:30.
