Drivers aged 21 and above can hit the highway in Rome in a rental car. If you're a young renter, a daily surcharge will apply.

Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to find out if any restrictions or extra fees apply.

Where can I find a Rome car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so you'll have to do a bit of homework. Managed to find a Rome outlet that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? That's great! Just bear in mind that extra charges often apply to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're interested in should have all the information you need.
