Car Rentals in Florence

Hi

We would like to rent a car in Florence and return it in Siena. Could any one suggest cheap and reliable car rental companies close to the Florence historic center (this is where we will be staying)? I looked around in Hertz/Avis etc but the rental prices in Sept seem to be hefty (~$100/day for a compact car).

Thanks for any input.

Hi Putti;

I just this week rented a car, picking up in Venice and dropping off in Rome for $460 CDN for 8 days, Sept17 - 25. I used autoeurope.com as they were the cheapest I could find and seem to get good reviews on this site.

Hope this helps.

Some other choices include www.itscarshotels.com or www.kemwel.com

And I still make a habit to "browse" available rates on travelocity for the unexpected promotion.

Best wishes,

Rex

Hi putti,

How long do you expect to take getting from Florence to Siena?

One-day rentals are quite expensive.

The SITA bus costs 6.5E and takes 1 hr. Luggage is stored under the passenger compartment.
