You can book a compact city hatchback to access the narrow old streets more easily or a large minibus for day trips. There’s also pretty much anything in-between, depending on the size of your party. All our vehicles come from Europe’s top brands, offering you affordable luxury by supplying first-class cars at economy prices.

What to do while in Palermo
The capital of Sicily offers plenty of sightseeing opportunities that you can take advantage of when you rent a car in Palermo. To get a sense of the city’s mixed cultural heritage, visit Palermo Cattedrale, where Norman, Gothic and Arabic architecture come together. For the beautiful ceiling mosaics that characterise the city, drive to the churches of Cappella Palatina and La Martorana. Foodies can drive to Piana degli Albanesi Village, 40 minutes away, to sample authentic Sicilian cannolis.
