Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Marco Polo Airport (VCE)?
Absolutely. Once you arrive at Marco Polo Airport (VCE), you'll find the rental companies located on the third level of the multilevel parking lot (P1). Make a booking with AutoServizi Maggiore, Europcar or Locauto. Avis and Autovia are other suppliers worth checking out.
What happens if I need to cancel my Venice car reservation?
You should be eligible for a complete refund on your prepaid reservation if you notify us a minimum of six hours prior to the collection time. Look through your car rental agreement for all the details. Our Customer Service Portal may have the answers too.
What types of cars can I rent in Venice?
Busy city streets and cramped parking spaces are no bother for an economy car — the most popular type of rental in Venice. Slide behind the wheel of one of these and get around traffic like a dream. Reliable, affordable and with excellent mileage, these small cars pack a punch. But Venice can be explored in almost any type of rental you like. Compacts, premiums and SUVs are among your options.
Where can I go on a road trip from Venice?
There are so many things to do in Venice, but venture further afield and you'll find even more magic. Rent a set of wheels and you can explore the surrounding area at your own speed. Add these awesome drives to your travel plan:

  • Bologna is about 129 kilometres from Venice. Well-known sights like Piazza Maggiore deserve to be high on your must-see list here.
  • Why not see the wonders of Rimini too? Unmissable tourist attractions to see here include Italy in Miniature. Rimini is around 153 kilometres from Venice.
  • Sacred Mountain of the Rosary is located 274 kilometres from Venice and is one of the region's most breathtaking nature spots. Stretch your legs and enjoy the fresh air.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Venice with Expedia?
Expedia makes it a breeze to compare fees, offers and rental providers, and to check customer recommendations. Combine your Venice car rental with flight or hotel bookings and you'll make even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Venice?
Drivers 21 and over can get on the road in Venice in a rental car. If you're a young driver, a daily surcharge applies. You'll usually have fewer car categories to select from, such as compact and mid-size, and may also be required to take out comprehensive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to learn if any surcharges or restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Venice?
Before you can hit the road in Venice, you'll need a driver's licence and a credit card that matches the name on your licence. If you prefer not to take out the rental company's insurance policy, you may also have to provide proof of other coverage. Rules can vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you choose a rental company.
What side of the road do you drive on in Venice?
Just like the States, you drive on the right in Italy. But that doesn't mean the road rules are the same as at home. Read up on the local traffic laws before motoring around Venice.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Venice?
Check out our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and then book your ideal ride. Whether you're basing yourself in Venice or road-tripping around, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at a fantastic rate.
Where can I find a Venice car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental suppliers, so be prepared to do a little shopping around. Managed to find a Venice supplier that does rent to under 25s? Terrific news! Just be aware that extra charges often apply to drivers between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're considering should have all the information you need.
