When you get a hire car in Trapani, you will find that the town is popular with locals and tourists, especially for the port and nearby beaches. As it’s also very old, the streets can be quite narrow. For these reasons, a compact car is more suitable, as it will aid you when navigating tight roads and help you park in small spaces. If you plan to go out into the countryside, to a town like Erice, then you will be better off with a vehicle that can handle steep terrain. For example, an SUV offers 4x4 capabilities for going up hills and also gives you an enhanced grip on extreme gradients.
