switzerland to Italy by car
Hello travellers,
we will be touring by road from Zurich to Italy with 6 people for about 3- 4 weeks. We are wanting to hire a people mover maybe 6 - 8 seater and enough luggage space. Anyone done this? and also we are wanting a cheap reliable hire company. We did this two years ago but with only four people and we had our own car.

Car hire is very expensive in Switzerland, so it will be cheaper to hire, say, in Germany or France. There may be some cross-border fee to pay, depending on hire company. To have enough luggage space with 6 passengers, you need a 8-9 seater which will be expensive as well as being unwieldy on narrow mountain roads. Hiring two normal cars may work out cheaper and more convenient.

Picking up in Switzerland and dropping off in another country will cost a small fortune. There are 7-person vans and 9-person vans; those are the largest you'll be able to rent with a normal license. Both will be limited in terms of luggage space, so don't go hauling big suitcases. Neither will be easy to navigate on small town roads. Neither will be easy to find parking for, and if you do find it, it will be expensive. Nothing you're contemplating will be "cheap."
