Driving in Florence: What to expect on the road
Documents you'll need You’ll need your driving licence, passport and a credit card to rent a car in Florence. Most visitors can use their regular driving licence. If it isn’t in English, you may need an International Driving Permit (IDP). Rental companies also check that your ID and payment card match the booking. |
Navigating city driving Florence has narrow streets and several restricted zones. Driving in the historic centre is limited by ZTL signs, which mark streets requiring permits. Navigation apps help you avoid these areas and guide you to wider roads around the city. |
Tolls, emissions zones and charges Italy uses toll roads on motorways near Florence. Florence also has ZTL zones in the centre. Rental cars often support electronic tolling. Follow signs closely to avoid entering controlled streets. |
Parking your car in Florence Parking is easiest in car parks outside the old centre. Street spaces are limited and often for residents only. Multi-storey car parks near Santa Maria Novella and along ring roads give easy access to sights. Park-and-ride areas are useful for visiting the centre. |
Finding fuel or charging points Fuel is easy to find, and EV charging stations in Florence are expanding. Petrol stations sit along main roads. Charging points are increasing across the city. Apps like PlugShare show the closest options before longer journeys. |
Local driving style and tips Drivers move slowly in the centre but faster on outer roads. Expect tight turns and scooters between lanes. Keep speeds low in historic areas and follow signs carefully near ZTL zones to avoid fines. |
