The Ligurian Coast is renowned for its narrow roads winding in and out of fishing villages, so when you are considering car rentals in La Spezia, focus on obtaining a compact car, if possible. The smaller your La Spezia car rental, the easier it will be to navigate the streets of this historic port town. Also, a smaller car will be easier to park, especially when parking is limited. Also, because you'll be negotiating a number of hills, if you rent a manual transmission car, the more popular type of rental in Italy, make sure you are adept at driving it.

The motorways around La Spezia tend to have a speed limit of 130 km/h (about 80 mph) unless otherwise posted. Sometimes it is 90 km/h (55 mph).
