KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Prato
- Having your own vehicle when visiting Prato will make it much easier to explore the surrounding region on your own. Public transport connections between cities often take longer than driving and with limited departures each day, your schedule may be affected. With your own car, you can visit Pisa in roughly an hour, while the shortest trip via public transport takes around 1h 25min and involves a transfer. You can head down to Livorno on the coast in about 1h 15min and the trip into Florence usually takes approximately 40 minutes. Book car rental in Prato and the region of Tuscany and the rest of Italy will be at your fingertips.
- The closest airport to Prato is Florence International Airport (FLR). After you land and collect your luggage, you'll need to take the free shuttle to the Palagio degli Spini car hire centre. The shuttle runs around every 20 minutes and takes roughly five minutes to arrive. Here, you'll find a range of international and local companies offering car rental in Prato. Once you've picked up your vehicle, you can drive to Prato in roughly 15 minutes if you take the Autostrada, and around 20 minutes if you avoid the toll roads.
- When driving in Prato, bear in mind that the city has both a Low Emission Zone and a Limited Traffic Zone. In the Low Emission Zone, all vehicles need to comply with specific emission standards. The Limited Traffic Zone restricts access to all traffic without a permit during specific times. The specific restriction can change, so check the latest information before you travel and keep an eye out for signs in the city. If you're staying at a hotel inside the Limited Traffic Zone, make sure you contact them before your trip, and they'll usually be able to provide a permit.
- While taking road trips from Prato, you may encounter wildlife and farm animals on the road. Be prepared to slow down and come to a stop if they're blocking the road. The safest thing to do is to stay in your car and wait for them to move on. When driving on Italy's Autostrada road, it's a good idea to have cash ready to pay at toll booths, as sometimes travellers find that their international cards aren't accepted. Make sure you head to the lane marked with a picture of a hand and some cash, as this lane will have a staffed booth that can take cash.
- Book your rental car in Prato at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
