Brindisi Airport is situated in the Puglia region of Italy and serves the south-east of the country including Bari and Lecce. Brindisi's style is largely defined by its picturesque port and a pleasant town centre. There's a wealth of seafood restaurants in Brindisi, with fishing boats coming and going constantly from Italy's south-east tip. Brindisi can get very hot in the summer months and anyone looking for a beach holiday combined with a dose of sophistication and culture will love it here.
Car hire at Brindisi Airport gives you access to the entire region of Puglia along with neighbouring cities such as Lecce. Hiring a car in Brindisi Airport is available on arrival.
For many people hiring a car in Brindisi, Brindisi Port is the main attraction due to its atmospheric lighting and its innate sense of history stemming from the fact that the area used to be a major trading post in ancient times. The Monumento al Marinaio is the tall tower structure which sits on the bay; it allows for great views of the city. Car hire in Brindisi will also allow you to take in Castle Svevo - another good place from which to get your bearings.
Rent a car in Brindisi Airport and you can explore neighbouring towns like Lecce which is around 35mins away and home to the magical Basilica di Santa Croce; or perhaps you'll take a trip to the Riserva Marina Torre Guaceto in Carovigno where you'll find what is often considered to be one of Italy's finest beaches; the Zoo/Safari at Safano is great for families and is just 56km on the SS379 from Brindisi Airport; the cathedral in the ‘White City' of Ostuni might appeal to those who fancy something a shade more cultured.
With your Brindisi Airport car rental, take care on the one way streets and right angled turns but once out of the city centre, driving isn't very congested and the roads are fairly good.
