Otherwis RENTING A CAR:

To drive a car in Italy an International driver licence is needed: the licence will not be asked by the rental company but if the police stops you while you are driving they might ask you to show them the International driver licence. In case you don't have it with you they could withdraw your original licence and apply an Euro 200 ticket! The International driving licence can only be obtained in your country of residence BEFORE your departure.

The best way is to do it online. The online reservation system has many more discounts and you can do it now. They don’t charge you nothing if you want to cancel the reservation. This is a very nice company:
