What our customers say

The best car hire experience we've had in many years of hiring cars for holidays. The Alamo service was superb - efficient, and very friendly and helpful staff.

<h2 style="font-size:30px;">Book with Zest Car Rental at Florence Airport</h2><p>We take a fresh, honest approach to car hire. Our booking process is simple: clear pricing, no hidden costs, and no small print to sweat over. We want you to relax and look forward to exploring the Renaissance architecture and rolling vineyard hills of Tuscany.</p><h2 style="font-size:30px;">Unlock the real Tuscany</h2><p>Florence Airport is the premier starting point for discovering the cultural and scenic heart of Italy. With a rental car, you can reach Florence City Centre in just 20 minutes to see the iconic Duomo and Uffizi Gallery. For a journey into world-famous wine country, the rolling hills and vineyards of Chianti are roughly 45 minutes south. If you seek medieval charm and historic towers, the fairytale town of San Gimignano is a comfortable drive southwest, all easily accessible from the terminal.</p><p>Tuscany is a region of immense geographic beauty, from the cypress-lined avenues of the Val d'Orcia to the dramatic marble peaks of the Apuan Alps. A rental car gives you the ultimate freedom to explore beyond the city limits and discover hidden hilltop villages, traditional trattorias, and the scenic backroads that make this one of Europe's best road trip destinations. Find your own rhythm in the golden heart of Italy.</p><h2 style="font-size:30px;">Our Fleet at Florence Airport</h2><p>At Zest Car Rental, we offer a wide range of vehicles at Florence Airport to suit every journey. Whether you need a compact car for navigating historic city outskirts, a spacious SUV for a family trip through the Tuscan countryside, or a premium vehicle for a comfortable drive along the autostrada, we have the perfect fit for you. All provider-specific details can be found in your car rental terms and conditions.</p><h2 style="font-size:30px;">One Way Rentals from Florence Airport</h2><p>Pick up your car at Florence Airport and drop it off in Pisa, Rome, or even Milan. One-way rentals are a popular way to explore the diverse beauty of the Italian landscape without needing to return to your starting point, giving you more freedom for your road trip.</p><p>Please note that each provider sets their own rules for one-way rentals, and some may apply a mandatory local fee. This is clearly shown during the booking process.</p><h2 style="font-size:30px;">Driver Age Requirements in Italy</h2><p><strong>Can I rent a car in Florence if I am under 25?</strong><br>Yes. While many providers require drivers to be at least 21 and may apply a Young Driver Surcharge, there are options available for younger drivers with a full, valid licence. Minimum age requirements and surcharges vary by car group.</p><p><strong>Can I rent a car in Florence if I am over 70?</strong><br>Yes. Senior drivers are widely welcomed in Italy. Most standard rentals have no additional fees, though we always recommend checking the specific terms for your chosen vehicle.</p><h2 style="font-size:30px;">What is the best time of year to explore Tuscany by car?</h2><p>The shoulder seasons of Autumn (September to November) and Spring (April to June) offer the most pleasant weather for exploring the countryside and historic hilltop towns. Summer is warm and vibrant, while the mild winter is ideal for visiting world-class museums and historic sites without the peak summer crowds.</p><h2 style="font-size:30px;">Toll Roads, Tolls &amp; Road Charges in Tuscany (Florence)</h2><p>Italy's motorways (autostrade) are mainly toll roads, with charges calculated according to the distance travelled. Most toll motorways use ticket-based or fully electronic toll collection, depending on the route. There are no vignette requirements for passenger vehicles.</p><p>For journeys from Florence Airport, local roads around Florence are generally toll-free. Drivers travelling further afield may encounter tolls when using the A1 Autostrada, which passes close to Florence and connects the city with destinations across northern and southern Italy.</p><p>Drivers should follow road signage, as toll charges apply only when using designated tolled motorways.</p>
