Cheap Car Hire Pisa: Best of FindYCar

Pulsing with medieval squares, Renaissance art, and university students spilling from historic cafés along the Arno River, this Tuscan city captures the essence of timeless Italy. The surrounding region tempts with Chianti vineyards, seaside escapes to Viareggio’s beaches, and hill towns like Lucca and Volterra perched on ancient stones. Most visitors rush through on day trips, snapping their obligatory leaning tower photo before catching the next train.

Tuscany’s real magic hides down winding country roads where buses don’t go and taxis cost a fortune. Here’s why car hire in Pisa beats public transport:

Reach hidden villages: Places like San Miniato, Certaldo, and Castelfalfi don’t appear on train maps but offer authentic experiences without tour bus crowds
Beach freedom: The Versilia coast stretches for miles with pristine spots beyond overcrowded Viareggio
Wine country access: Chianti vineyards and Bolgheri wineries require wheels – you can’t Uber between estates in the countryside.

No deposit, guaranteed model, cash, credit card-free, and all other features are available on FindYCar. Find your ideal rental today. Book now.

Traffic Rules

The city follows standard traffic laws, but the narrow medieval streets in the historic centre can catch unprepared drivers with hefty fines. Check these rules before hiring a car in Pisa:

Keep to the right.
Speed limits in Italy: 50 km/h in towns, 90 km/h on ordinary roads, 110 km/h on superstrade, and 130 km/h on autostrade.
Seat belts are required for all passengers; not wearing one can result in fines of up to €330.
The Zona a Traffico Limitato (ZTL) in historic centres does not allow unauthorised vehicles.
The legal alcohol limit is 0.05% for experienced drivers; for novices it is 0%.

Parking

Blue lines mean paid parking – expect €1-2 per hour in the central area, payable via meters or apps like MyCicero.

White lines offer free parking, while yellow markings indicate resident-only zones.

Petrol Stations

Diesel costs around €1.6-1.8 per litre, while unleaded petrol is €1.7-1.9.

Local petrol stations close for lunch (typically 1-3 PM) and most are fully closed on Sundays, so plan accordingly.

Toll Roads

Italy is a country where half of the motorways are toll roads.

Take a ticket on entry, then pay cash or card at the barrier on exit, or request a Telepass device to pass through automated lanes.
