20 is a pretty common minimum age, although it depends on what kind of car you want.
You might need to be 25 to hire a big, powerful car, but since we work with so many companies in Italy, we can almost certainly find you a car you’ll be happy with, as long as you’re 20 or over.
There’s a box in the search form at the top of this page that says ‘Driver aged 30 – 65?’ If you’re under 30, uncheck that box and enter your age. When you hit ‘Search’, you’ll only see cars that someone your age can drive.
Top tip: Car hire companies might charge you a Young Driver Fee if you’re only a few years over the minimum age. These fees can really vary, so it’s well worth taking a bit of time to compare different cars and companies on our site. If you don’t see a Young Driver Fee underneath the car’s price, you’ll find it in the car’s terms and conditions (click ‘Ts&Cs’ and look under ‘Driving Charges’).
