Genoa car hires from $52

With Genoa being such a diverse city in terms of landscape and infrastructure, the roads vary from the coastlines to the cities, making all car types suitable. With Genoa covering 94 miles of coastline, your vehicle hire may vary from a compact economy car that can manoeuvre through winding, smaller streets, to a convertible sports car, perfect for those scenic ocean drives. Base your vehicle option around your travelling party, schedule and sight-seeing wish list, and you are guaranteed to be satisfied with your choice.

The speed limit on the Genoa motorways is 80mph to 90mph, with a substantial drop in the city centre at 30mph. Genoa has a significant amount of traffic cameras across the city, ranging from the city centre to the motorways, ports and coastal towns – so watch that speedometer.

Due to the city's infrastructure, street parking is notoriously difficult to come by in the city centre of Genoa – and free street parking is considered almost impossible. Parcheggio Carignano, Marina Park, Parcheggio Andrea Podestà and ParcheggioMercanzia are commercial car parks that offer affordable rates at around €1.30 (£1.14) per hour. They are all within walking distance of the city centre. For free or reduced rate car parks, look out for Parcheggio via Moresco, Parcheggio PiazzaleMarassi, Parcheggio via Rubattino or Parcheggio Dinegro, also within walking distance of the city centre. Your car will be safe there while you explore Genoa on foot.
