Grab your bags, exit the arrivals hall at Bologna Airport (BLQ-Guglielmo Marconi), and pick up your rental car. Which one you hop into depends on where you want to go. If you’ll be spending most of your time driving in downtown Modena, around 19 miles from the terminal, opt for something zippy and small. A compact car with good handling will be perfect for those busy city streets. But with so many things to see, like the picturesque sandy shores of the surrounding area, you’ll probably be racking up those miles. A bigger vehicle, like a full-size car or an SUV, will make longer road trips more comfortable.
