A compact rental car will have you dashing about the frenzied streets and parking will be easier. If you’re not into city driving, there’s a whole lot to discover farther afield. Slide behind the wheel of a four-wheel drive or an SUV and visit the picturesque harbors that Province of Rome is known for.

All you have to do is decide what’s the best fit, pack up the car, and hit the wide, open road.
