All-inclusive car rental in Naples

In short

An all-inclusive rental in Naples includes full insurance with zero excess - valuable on the famously narrow Amalfi Coast road and around Vesuvius, Pompeii and Sorrento.

Naples is the springboard for some of Italy’s greatest sights: the ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum, the slopes of Vesuvius, and the dramatic Amalfi Coast with Sorrento, Positano and Amalfi. A car gives you the freedom buses cannot, though the driving here is lively.

A Cardamar all-inclusive rental includes comprehensive zero-excess cover, unlimited mileage and free cancellation, with pick-up at Naples Airport.

Driving the Amalfi Coast

The SS163 Amalfi Coast road is breathtaking and notoriously narrow, with tight bends, buses and limited parking. Drive it calmly and outside peak hours, and consider basing yourself in Sorrento. Zero-excess cover is especially reassuring here.

Note that in summer the Amalfi Coast operates number-plate restrictions on some days - check current rules before you drive.

Pompeii, Vesuvius and beyond

Pompeii and Herculaneum are short drives from Naples, and a road climbs most of the way up Vesuvius. Naples city traffic and ZTL zones make a car less useful in the centre itself, so park and explore on foot there.

The all-inclusive price includes full insurance, unlimited mileage and airport fees, so there are no surprises at the desk.

Naples car rental - FAQ

Is it stressful to drive around Naples?

City traffic is busy and assertive, so many visitors pick up at the airport and head straight out to Sorrento or the coast. Zero-excess cover removes the worry of a minor scrape.

Can I drive the Amalfi Coast road?

Yes, and it is spectacular, but it is narrow and busy - drive calmly, avoid peak hours, and check summer number-plate restrictions.

How far is Pompeii from Naples?

Around 30 minutes by car - an easy and worthwhile stop.
