Car rental Campania

Campania is best explored by car, with a wealth of scenery unfolding as you drive. So, securing your vehicle prior to arriving is highly recommended. Car hire comparison sites are a cost-effective way to ensure the best deals.

Driving in Campania

Driving in Italy can be quite different from the UK. Remember, in Italy, you drive on the right side of the road. The speed limit is generally 50 km/h (31 mph) in urban areas, 90 km/h (56 mph) outside urban areas, and 130 km/h (81 mph) on motorways, but these can occasionally change, so stay attentive to the road signs.

What to Visit

Campania, home to iconic locations like Naples, Sorrento, and the Amalfi Coast, benefits from a wealth of attractions.

Naples

The vibrant city of Naples, renowned for its art, history, and delicious pizza, makes a great starting point.

Amalfi Coast

A UNESCO heritage site, the Amalfi Coast boasts some of the peninsula's most breathtaking coastline, dotted with pastel-colored towns clinging to cliffs.

Seasonal Events

Be sure to check out local events, as Campania is known for its lively festivals, many of which are linked to the region's rich historical and religious traditions.

Understanding Currency

Italy uses the Euro, not the pound, so remember to carry some cash, especially while visiting smaller towns and establishments, although most places now accept credit cards.

Climates and Seasons

One of the many joys of Campania is its Mediterranean climate, a far cry from the British weather! Summers are dry and hot while winters are mild.

Dressing for the Climate

Bring along light clothing for the summer, and be sure to have some warm changes for cooler evenings in the winter. Don't forget a swimsuit for Campania's irresistible azure-blue seas and golden beaches.

Enjoy Authentic Italian Cuisine

No matter where you go in Campania, your taste buds are in for a treat! From traditional Neapolitan pizza to creamy, delicious gelato, every corner offers classic and regional Italian specialities.
