Auto Europe Israel collaborates with a wide range of car rental companies in Rome and throughout Italy. Therefore, you have the option to choose a pick-up point from a vast network of stations throughout the city. The main stations are located around Rome's main train station, Termini (Roma Termini), as well as at Leonardo da Vinci–Fiumicino (FCO) and Ciampino (CIA) airports. This way, you can start your journey immediately upon landing or after arriving by train to the city center.
In addition to the main locations, there are many other stations spread throughout Rome – on main avenues and in desired neighborhoods – allowing you to pick up or return the car exactly where it's convenient for you. In some cases, pick-up and drop-off can be coordinated at different points, depending on the provider's policies and possible additions. The wide variety makes it easy to tailor the service point to your holiday route, business meetings, or star tours around Lazio and Tuscany.
Opening hours vary between companies and stations, and sometimes even during different days of the week. Usually, airport stations are open for longer hours, while city stations may close earlier and some may not be operational on Sundays. Therefore, it's important to check in advance that the hours match your schedule, especially if you are landing late or planning an early morning return. At some points, late return is possible via a key box – subject to the provider's terms. During the reservation on the website, updated opening hours for each station will be displayed, and you can choose the convenient time accordingly.
Important tip for Rome: the city center has Limited Traffic Zones (ZTL) with controlled entry at certain hours. If your accommodation is in such an area, consider pick-up or drop-off outside the ZTL, or at the airports/Termini, to avoid fines. We will be happy to assist in choosing the appropriate station and times, so you can receive the car at the most convenient place and time for you.
Before booking a car abroad, a few right steps can save time, money, and frustration at the counter. We've compiled four short tips to help you be prepared, avoid surprises in costs, and start your journey with peace of mind.
Credit card in the main driver's name
Most suppliers require a physical international credit card (credit, not debit/prepaid) in the main driver's name for security. Ensure you have a sufficient limit and a matching name to the passport and booking.
Provide flight details and branch hours
Adding a flight number helps the branch update in case of delays. Check opening hours and late pick-up policy; arrival after closing without coordination may be considered No-Show.
Fuel full-to-full and mileage
Check the fuel policy – usually it's economical to collect full and return full. Confirm if mileage is unlimited or limited, and what the rate is for extra kilometers.
Seasonal equipment, tolls, and border crossing
In certain countries, winter tires/vignette/toll fees are required. If planning to cross a border, request border crossing approval in advance and check costs and equipment requirements.
