Naples car rental driving guide

Driving in and around Naples

Naples is a sprawling city but one that has roads running through its heart, making it relatively easy to drive through. You will find some areas closed to traffic if you’re not a resident, but your hire car will let you see the best of what the city has to offer. It also means you can see the glorious coast here, as well as towns and villages further inland.

Don’t forget to drive on the right and overtake on the left when in Italy, while speed limits and distances are displayed in kilometres. They range from 30kmh in built-up areas to 130kmh on the ‘autostrada’. If you’re leaving the city, you should use dipped headlights even when driving in daylight.

You can navigate around Naples on the Tangenziala – the A56 – which skirts the city but has various on and off ramps that will allow you access to the part of town you want. It’s a toll road – most autostrada in Italy are – and you can pay by cash. It’s not always easy to find free street parking in the town centre – roads are busy here and there’s a large residential population. It’s best to use the facilities provided by your hotel, or use a garage or car park. If you do want to park on the road, look for white lines. You have to pay to park in blue zones.

If you want to see more of Italy, hop in your hire car and head to Rome on the A1, or take the A3 through Salerno to Reggia Calabria. You can wind your way to the popular resort of Sorrento by leaving the A3 for the Castellamare di Stabia – the views are heavenly, although the road is narrow.
