If you are considering a car rental in Florence, you will undoubtedly be able to locate a car in Florence that meets your needs. Consider hiring a Vespa scooter if you're going on a trip seeking adventure. Driving through heavy traffic and busy streets will be more manageable with a tiny or compact automobile. Compact or economy cars are more suited for short commutes and are easier to park. If you're traveling with family or friends and need additional space, an SUV or sedan will provide a more comfortable ride.
Like other cities in South Carolina, Florence is a “zero tolerance” city regarding driving under the influence. The Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) is 0.02% for those aged 21 or below and 0.08% for those above 21. An officer can pull you over anytime and conduct a breathalyzer test.
The speed limits in Florence are regulated to the same regulations as those in most Italian towns, with urban areas having limits of 31 mph and rural routes having limits of 56 mph. While bigger motorways often have speed limits of 80 mph, smaller highways typically have 68 mph speed limits. So when driving in Florence, look out for speed limit signs.
Florence is very strict with child passenger safety. If you are driving with your family, ensure that any infant in the car is secured in a rear-facing car seat. Kids aged four should be strapped in booster seats, while those aged eight or older and are at least 57" tall can be restrained by an adult safety belt.
The Piazza Ghiberti has a paid parking area if you're looking for a parking spot for your Florence car rental. Private garages provide the highest level of protection because they are indoors and have CCTV. It's perfect if you want to drive in from one of our villas in Florence for a few hours of shopping, dining, and sightseeing because most private garages are in the historical center. Street parking is an additional choice if you don't mind walking ten to twenty minutes to reach the historic center. Typically, the top locations are on the outskirts of Florence's city center. The few places that are available on the street are in high demand due to the lack of parking. Parking outside the city core and utilizing public transportation should be considerably simpler.

Cons:
My rental pickup was for 2pm. The flight got in at 2 and the Alamo agent left before any customers got to the Alamo counter, even though he/she must have known there were people in that flight that booked rentals with Alamo. I spent over $200 extra having to rent through another company and will never use Alamo again. I also question Kayak’s booking platform for not flagging the early closure of Alamo rental countries at the airport.One location in Florence
