SIXT Car Rental in Florence

Florence, Italy, has a reputation worldwide for its Renaissance architecture and artwork, and a rental car enables you to explore the magic of the Florentine province and the surrounding region of Tuscany.

SIXT makes it easy to see all the best sights, with branches located at Florence Central Train Station and Florence Airport (FLR). Choose your ideal ride from SIXT’s fleet of premium cars, and say "ciao" to the frescoes, vistas, and cafés that populate this area.

Driving Tips for Florence

A rental car in Florence is an enjoyable way to explore the countryside, but be sure to brush up on local regulations for a seamless experience.

  • ZTL, or the Limited Traffic Zone, is Florence’s prime historic area, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, which requires a permit to access. If your accommodations are within the ZTL, inform your hotel of your arrival time, or plan to drive and park outside the ZTL.
  • The Autostrada is the Italian highway system. Be sure to keep your lights turned on while on the Autostrada and use the passing lane only to pass.
  • Share the road. Florence is an ancient city with narrow roads and many tourists. Always watch for pedestrians, cyclists, and scooters.
  • Parking Look for blue spaces, and then pay the meter at the ticket kiosks marked with a P.
  • Modifications If you want to add a day or change your reservation to a one-way rental, SIXT makes it easy to make adjustments online. See the SIXT help center for more.

Best places to visit in and around Florence

  • Tuscany The Chianti Mountains are home to the region’s world-famous vineyards and olive groves, among varied terrain. Try a trip to Volterra, only a 75-minute drive from Florence, where the Palazzo dei Priori has medieval frescoes and a bell tower with expansive views.
  • Cinque Terre Only two hours from Florence, this collection of five seaside villages on the Italian Riviera displays centuries-old architecture set into rugged terrain and is known for its seafood.
  • A day trip to Siena offers even more historic architecture at sights like Palazzo Pubblico, the Gothic city hall, and Torre del Mangia, a tower dating to the 14th century, that offers majestic vistas.,

5 Stars I recently rented a car with Sixt, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience, thanks to Daniela at customer service. She went above and beyond to make the process smooth and stress-free. Daniela was friendly, professional, and extremely helpful, answering all my questions and ensuring we had everything we needed for our trip. Her dedication to customer satisfaction truly stands out. Highly recommend Sixt, especially if you’re lucky enough to have Daniela assist you!
