KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Sorrento
- Although Sorrento is a small city and you can get around on foot to most places inside the urban area, car hire in Sorrento will give you a lot of freedom if you want to travel further afield. Public transport options exist, but if you want to have full control over your timetable without constantly worrying about missing bus or train connections, nothing beats having a set of wheels to give you the freedom to go where you want, when you want. Don’t forget to get your international driver’s licence before your trip to Italy, however, because drivers from outside the European Union require one by law in order to hire a car.
- Sorrento car hire is easy if you are flying into Naples and want to hire a vehicle on arrival. There are offices for most of the major international car hire companies, such as Sixt, Thrifty, Avis, Hertz, Budget and Europcar, located at the airport, just outside the arrivals area. It is a good idea to hire online before arrival, as this can save you money. The company you hire from can, in most cases, meet you at the airport to complete the formalities and deliver your car to you.
- When considering car hire in Sorrento, the good news is that Sorrento is a small city and driving is usually fairly straightforward. However, parking can be an issue, and the large number of visitors during the tourist season can increase the intensity of traffic, especially along The Amalfi Drive. Note that the historic centre of the city is closed to traffic every day after 19:00 and all day Sunday. You should also not forget that foreign drivers need to have an international driver’s licence to legally drive in Italy. Keep your passport, home driver’s licence and international driver’s licence on you at all times, just in case you need them.
- Driving in Sorrento is mostly straightforward. Like in most European destinations, driving is on the right. Traffic is usually fairly relaxed but may get heavier in the tourist season, and parking is usually a problem. Outside the city, the road along Amalfi Coast is quite winding, and in summer, you should watch out for buses, as the road is sometimes a bit narrower than you might prefer.

Pros:
Convenient pick up in Sorrento. No Gas stations on the way in to Salerno or near the drop off but the staff acknowledged that issue and waived the service charge. Car was virtually new, clean and in good conditionCons:
From prior experience with pickups in Europe I checked out the office and office hours the day before is I din't have any issues but it would be helpful to note in your information that they are not open for a period shortly after 1:00 PM until later in the afternoon6.4 Okay
June 2019
Pros:
Pick up was good. Easy assess and rental process.Cons:
We weary of when you drop off at Naples airport. Car rental place is in weird place and a good 15 minute easy walk to terminal but a walk nevertheless. Take photos of any damage to car at pickup as drop off people not get any surprises. Drop off car min 2.5 hour before your flight.8.0 Very Good
