Hello,

I am not aware of any highway tax sticker to drive in Italy, however if there is any tolls to pay you must pay these at the toll yourself.
Regards your question about the location, all of our locations are well signposted and if you follow this link: http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=es&tab=wl&q=Piazzale%20Roma%20496%20G you will see the map of the location. Also, the address is Avis Venice, Piazzale Roma 496 G,Venezia,30100.

Hope this helps

Michael

I’m planning on renting a car in Vienna and returning it in Venice – do I need to buy a highway tax sticker for Italy?
Also, is the Venice downtown location easy to access?

Hi Gill,

GPS units are multi-lingual so you’ll will be able to choose the language.

Hi Stephen

I’m keen to hire a car from Venice but I can’t see anywhere on the site if the GPS allows you to choose an English speaking option. Please advise.

Thanks

Hi Jakub,

Yes you can drive into Slovenia but only with certain car groups, what type of car have you got? To drive on the Slovenian highways you also need to buy a blue road stamp which costs €35 and can be bought in tobacco shops, gas stations and newspaper shops once you enter Slovenia. It is very important that you buy this stamp and keep it displayed in the windscreen at all times as the fines for not doing so are very high!

I have a car, rented from Avis in Italy(on Treviso airport – if it makes any difference). Is there any problem if I go to Ljubljana for a weekend?

Hi Akio,

Venice airport is quite small and they have told me that yes you simply need to follow the “Car rental return” signs to the parking lot.
I hope you have a nice time!

When I return a rent-a-car at venice airport (one way from rome), do I just drive to the airport, or find a sign of rent-a-car return as same as other airports?
The map on your web site below indicates different place as avis venice office.

Hi William, unfortunately this card is not accepted in the UK. Full information on accepted credit cards is available on this blog post: http://wetryharder.co.uk/?p=253.

With regards to a telephone number, can you advise which country you need to make the phone call from? I’ll then post the telephone number for the Reservation Centre in that country.

Why do not car-hire company’s give contact phone numbers?
The numbers that are shown ( sometimes ) are usually not accessible from outside of the UK.
