Your quick travel guide to Venice

The Romantic City of Venice

Located in Italy’s Veneto region, Venice is a beautiful city originally built on 100 or so tiny islands in the Adriatic Sea. The city itself is a living museum, with its central parts mainly relying on waterways and canals instead of roads. Although driving a vehicle in Venice itself is restricted, visitors can pick up rental cars and ride to the city outskirts, where they can then park and explore downtown, including Grand Canal and Piazza San Marco. A car hire in Venice is also an ideal choice if you`re making day trips outside of the city.

Three Reasons to Hire a Car for Your Vacation in Venice

A taxi can devour a substantial chunk of your money. Touring the outskirts of Venice can actually take you through miles of distances, so you`re better off driving a rental automobile as this will cut back on your transport costs. When you rent a vehicle, you can park and proceed to tour Piazza San Marco, St Mark’s Basilica and Doge’s Palace, which is mostly accessible by gondola. After exploring all Venice has in store - including grand palaces, fine museums and ornate cathedrals - you can then cruise to Bologna and Verona, home of the legendary Romeo and Juliet.

Renting a vehicle will also allow you to take more luggage with you. Your car booth can be your Aladdin’s Cave of essential items such as coolers, picnic rugs, umbrellas and emergency roadside kits, things you won`t have to lug around with you on public transport! This way, you won’t have the stress of worrying about the safety of your belongings. Once you have locked everything away in your hired car, you are ready for a smooth ride that will take you to some of the most rewarding spots in Venice.

Lastly, a rental car offers the ideal space for a family trip. Instead of taking a taxi - which will anyway cost you more if you`re heading to locations outside of Venice - you can simply look into renting a larger five-seater. This will ensure everyone is comfortable enough for the longer rides. It’s fun when you ride a hired car to new places. In a rental car, the mere aspect of being lost and missing the routes while you drive to different tourist spots will probably fascinate you. It’s even more fun when you get every route correct.

Foolproof Ways to Reduce Car Rental Expenses

There are many things to take into consideration before choosing your rental car. By comparing different options from Economy Bookings, you can find the best and most budget-friendly option for your needs. Booking in advance can result in bigger savings, so plan your trip and start looking at cars as soon as possible.

Economy cars don’t burn much fuel and will cost less to hire per day. You can save up to 10 euros or more per day when you hire a compact. The cost is even further reduced if the auto consumes less fuel per kilometre. When touring Venice, consider taking your trip during the low season. Also, make sure you compare the prices of car rental companies. Economy Bookings helps you find out which car hire companies have low rental rates, getting you the cheapest hire car. Prices include:

  1. Third Party Liability Insurance
  2. Limited or Unlimited Mileage
  3. Collision Damage Waiver
  4. Theft Protection
