KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Trieste

  • Although Trieste does have its own public transportation system, it is known for often being delayed, and it does not connect the entire city or surrounding towns. Due to this, booking car rentals in Trieste is one of the most convenient ways to move throughout the area. Having Trieste car rentals will make it easy to not only explore sights a bit far from the city center, but to also go on day trips to other cities. For example, you can drive to places like Miramare Castle and Barcola Beach.
  • If you will be arriving in the region by plane, keep in mind that you can pick up car rentals in Trieste directly from Trieste Airport (TRS). The car rental center at TRS can be conveniently found just inside the Arrivals terminal, which is conveniently a quick walk from where baggage claim is located. There are a few different companies that have desks in the car rental center, including Alamo, Enterprise, and Thrifty.
  • There are a few things that you will want to keep in mind when operating car rentals in Trieste. The city is quite old and filled with narrow, winding streets, particularly in the city center. When driving, you will want to limit your speed and always keep your eyes on the road. You will also find that there are quite a few one-way streets. The city center is filled with pedestrians as well, so be on the lookout for individuals crossing the street.
  • It is important to remember that like many Italian cities, Trieste is split into zones, and some zones cannot be accessed by cars on certain days and for certain times. Before you get behind the wheel, you will want to check and verify that you can drive to your destination. The reason that this rule is put in place is to help prevent traffic within the city limits. You will also want to be particularly careful when you are driving in the rain, as the roads in Trieste will often be quite slippery in these weather conditions.

    As the city’s roads are quite narrow and parking can be limited, you may want to rent a smaller vehicle, like a compact model or sedan. Doing so will make it easier for you to drive throughout town, particularly in the city center. If you are planning to go on a road trip to other parts of Italy, however, you may wish to rent an SUV or a van instead, as this will give you extra room for suitcases and passengers.

  • What’s the speed limit in Trieste?

    When you are driving on an Italian motorway, you can expect the speed limit to be a maximum of 130 km/h (80 mph). If you are driving on a road in a more rural area, the maximum speed limit is typically between 90 km/h and 110 km/h (approximately 56 mph and 68 mph). If you are driving on urban roads that are within the city limits, you can expect the maximum speed limit to be between 50 km/h and 70 km/h (approximately 31 mph and 44 mph).

  • Where are the best places to park in Trieste?

    You likely will not be able to find much free street parking in Trieste. Instead, you will need to pay for a public or private parking garage. You can also choose to pay for a metered space on the street. In general, you can expect public parking to cost a minimum of €0.5 ($0.55) per hour, but this will vary depending on which part of the city you are planning to park in.
