  • If you're going away with the kids, find out if you need to add a car seat to your Chiavari car hire reservation. Whether required by local laws or not, they're always the safest way for little ones to travel.

  • You'll have to provide some documents when collecting your car. As a rule, bring your physical driver's licence, a credit card with room for the security deposit (most companies don't accept debit cards), and another form of photo ID. Your booking will tell you exactly what you need.

  • Spend some time getting acquainted with your rental. Set up your seat and mirrors, learn where everything is, and get comfortable with its handling before you set off. And remember to stay on the right side of the road in Italy.

  • Stay within the local speed limits. Most of the time that's around 45kph in built-up areas and 125kph or so on highways, unless signs say otherwise.

  • In Italy, the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit is 0.05%. If you expect to drink, hand the keys to someone else or choose another way to travel.

  • One of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination is around 8am. Make travel easier by steering clear of peak periods.

  • You'll be using the euro (EUR) on your trip here. Along with your debit and credit cards, consider taking some cash for minor purchases.
