When to book a rental car in Palermo
Top tips for renting a car in Palermo
- Planning on renting a car after your flight to Palermo lands? If you are flying into Palermo Airport, you will find a number of car hire counters both in the pre-security area of the main terminal and in an adjacent parking lot to the airport.
- Defensive driving is an important aspect of driving in Sicily and should not be forgotten. You must remain aware of the other drivers and anticipate that they may cut in front of you or change lanes at any moment. However, it is not that the drivers are necessarily bad or the roads lawless; there is simply an aggressive driving culture.
- Beware the maze-like city centers. It can be very confusing navigating these areas so make sure to have a working GPS device available. Parking can also be very difficult to find in the historical center, so it may pay off to park outside of the center and then bus in.
- One major advantage to renting a vehicle while you are in Palermo is that it really opens up the city and the countryside for your exploration. For instance, Monreale, at just 13 km (8 mi) away from Palermo, features a 12th century cathedral that is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You could also visit the seaside resort Cefalu, which, at 78 km (48 mi) away, is just about an hour’s drive outside of town.
- Book your rental car in Palermo at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Economy rental cars in Palermo are around 29% cheaper than other car types, on average

Palermo is an old city whose roads date back to long before the automobile era. The roads are often narrow and one-way lanes are quite common; therefore, small and compact cars are far more suited for Palermo’s roads than an SUV or other large vehicles. This is especially so when you take parking into consideration, as space for a large vehicle will be very hard to come by.
The speed limits in Italy are fairly standard from city to city. Major highways post speed limits of 130 km/h (80 mph) and urban areas feature speed limits of 50 km/h (31 mph). Smaller highways tend to have speed limits of 110 km/h (68 mph), while local roads are around 90 km/h (56 mph).
Petrol prices in Palermo, and throughout much of Italy, are unfortunately quite high. Drivers can expect to pay, on average, about €1.60 ($1.83) for a liter of petrol while they are in Palermo, which comes out to about €6.05 ($6.93) per gallon of gas.
Parking in the central areas of Palermo can be a bit hard to come by at times, as many of the parking spots are reserved for residents with passes. In general, streetside parking is scarce and premium parking garages and lots are your best options for finding a space in the city center. However, as many of the sites and monuments are close to each other in Palermo, it may be worth it to simply park further out and then take a leisurely stroll into the main tourism areas.
