KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Budoni

  • The decision to use car hire in Budoni is a wise one, as you will have the comfort and freedom of exploring the area on your own and not reliant on public transport. Budoni, Sardinia, is known for its beautiful beaches, breathtaking coastal scenery and quaint Italian villages. Drive to popular beaches like Spiaggia di Budoni or explore towns like San Teodoro and Olbia in your own time. If you are travelling in a group, it is much more cost-efficient to transport people, and you can enjoy perks like air conditioning, roomy interiors and more boot space for shopping and beach-day outings.
  • When you fly into Costa Smeralda Airport (OLB) and proceed to pick up your Budoni hire car, you will find all the car hire companies in the Rent-A-Car area, in the main Arrivals hall. Proceed to your chosen car hire company, where they will give you your keys and direct you to the onsite parking pick-up. You can drop off your car at the same location, making your car hire experience a smooth and stress-free experience.
  • When using car hire in Budoni, your driving experience should be pleasant, as the road systems are well-maintained and relatively easy to navigate. Familiarise yourself with the local traffic laws and regulations and make sure you have the necessary car hire documents, including a valid driver's licence, vehicle registration and insurance. The main city roads are in good condition but you might encounter narrow gravel roads. Drive cautiously and within the speed limit to avoid any accidents.
  • There might be some difficulties when you use car hire in Budoni. It is a popular tourist destination and you will encounter some heavy peak traffic entering the city. Traffic can be congested on the main roads leading to and from the town during peak tourist season, in the summer months from June to August. Italian drivers can be assertive and sometimes exceed the speed limit and engage in erratic behaviour, so be vigilant. Driving with a GPS system is a good idea to avoid getting into precarious situations.
  • Book your car hire in Budoni at least 2 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Economy hire cars in Budoni are around 91% cheaper than other car types, on average

Nu Car was not the name of the car rental agency. We found the agency only after inquiring at the airport. Upon arrival to the agency, they said I needed an International Driver's Permit and would not rent a car without one. In decades of travel, this has never occurred. If a IDP was required, it should have been stated on the rental reservation online and the accompanying receipt. $49 and 45 minutes later, I had the permit and the rental car. Will never rent from them again.
