KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Padua
- Car rental in Padua offers numerous advantages. It provides the freedom to explore not only the city but also the beautiful surrounding areas at your own pace. With a car, you can easily visit nearby attractions, such as the stunning Villa Pisani in Stra or the historic town of Vicenza. Public transport may not reach some of these locations, making a hired car the ideal choice for convenience and accessibility.
- At Padua's major airport, Venice Marco Polo Airport (VCE), Padua car hire offices can be found in the dedicated car hire area, located just outside the Arrivals Hall. Venice Marco Polo Airport provides a shuttle service that takes passengers from the Arrivals Hall to the car hire offices. It's important to check the specific car hire provider's location and shuttle service details in advance to ensure a smooth pickup process. If you arrange your booking online, most car companies will have a representative meet you in the Arrivals Hall.
- When driving in Padua, be aware of limited traffic zones (ZTL) in the city centre. These areas are restricted to authorised vehicles, and entering without permission may result in fines. Several of these low-traffic zones have nearby parking spots or a Park and Ride service that you can park at and use public transport to and from. Pay attention to road signs indicating ZTLs and follow alternative routes if you are not authorised. Additionally, be cautious of pedestrians, especially in crowded areas and near pedestrian crossings.
- Padua, like many Italian cities, experiences peak-hour traffic congestion between 07:30 - 09:30 and 17:30 - 19:30. The city centre, particularly around Piazza delle Erbe and Piazza dei Signori, can become congested. It's advisable to plan your travel accordingly and consider alternative routes during these times. In terms of seasons, winter snowfall is infrequent in Padua, but if you plan to drive in nearby mountainous areas, it is important to be prepared for potential snowy conditions. Most companies offering car rental in Padua will have snow tyres as an offering during the winter months. If you're travelling in mountainous areas, ensure you have the right insurance coverage.
- Book your rental car in Padua at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Compact rental cars in Padua are around 87% cheaper than other car types, on average

A compact car offers better manoeuvrability, making it easier to navigate through the tight lanes and find parking spaces. It is ideal for solo travellers or couples looking for a cost-effective option with good fuel efficiency. For families or larger groups, a mid-sized car provides more comfort and space without compromising manoeuvrability. However, hiring more than one compact car for a family is recommended due to the narrow streets.

The general speed limits in Padua and throughout Italy are as follows: 50 km/h in built-up areas, 90 km/h on open roads, and 130 km/h on motorways. However, it's important to be aware of any specific speed limit signs, as they may vary depending on the road conditions and areas you are driving through. Some areas, such as near schools or construction sites, may have reduced speed limits, so always drive attentively and observe the posted signs.
Where are the best places to park in Padua?
Padua has several paid parking options available, particularly in the city centre. The average cost of parking in Padua is approximately €2 (₹180) to €4 (₹360) per hour in public car parks and garages. Piazza delle Erbe and Piazza dei Signori offer underground parking facilities. There are also parking garages near the train station and along Viale della Pace. It is advisable to plan for paid parking expenses in the city centre. However, outside the centre, there may be areas with free parking available.
