Whether you're discovering the ancient ruins of Agrigento, driving along the picturesque coast of Taormina, or exploring the slopes of Mount Etna, Rhino Car Hire ensures you travel comfortably and affordably.


Why Rhino Car Hire is the Best Choice for Sicily 

  • Local Expertise and Convenient Locations: With convenient car hire locations at Palermo and Catania airports, we make it easy for you to start your adventure the moment you land. Our team knows the ins and outs of Sicily and can provide helpful tips for driving through scenic coastal routes or navigating the narrow streets of historic towns.

Planning a luxurious escape? We offer premium cars for the ultimate experience along Sicily's stunning beaches.

  • Cost-Effective Car Hire: Enjoy transparent pricing with no hidden fees. Our competitive rates ensure you get the best value for money, and our early-booking discounts offer extra savings during peak travel seasons.

  • Flexible Travel Options: We offer one-way rentals across Sicily, so whether you're traveling between Catania and Palermo or planning to explore more remote locations like Ragusa and Syracuse, we’ve got you covered.


Top Destinations to Explore with Your Rhino Hire Car

  • Mount Etna: Experience Europe’s most active volcano with a drive to the summit. With a Rhino rental car, you can easily access the stunning viewpoints and local wineries dotting the volcanic slopes.

  • Valley of the Temples: Situated near Agrigento, this UNESCO World Heritage Site boasts some of the most well-preserved ancient ruins in the world. Having a rental car gives you the flexibility to explore the site and the surrounding countryside at your own pace.

  • Taormina: Enjoy a scenic drive along the coast to the charming town of Taormina. Park your car and stroll through its historic streets, visit the ancient Greek Theatre, or relax on the nearby beaches.

  • Sicilian Wine Routes: Take a scenic drive through Sicily’s renowned wine regions, including Marsala and Etna DOC. Visit local wineries and enjoy picturesque vineyard views along the way.

Insider Tips for Driving in Sicily 

  • Parking Tips: Parking in cities like Palermo and Catania can be tricky. Use designated parking areas or park just outside the city center for convenience. Avoid narrow streets in historic areas where parking might be scarce.

  • Road Conditions: Some rural roads in Sicily can be bumpy or uneven, especially near Mount Etna or in remote villages. Renting an SUV will ensure better comfort and road handling in these areas.

  • Toll Roads: Major highways in Sicily, including parts of the A19 and A20, have tolls. Be sure to carry cash or use your rental provider’s electronic toll payment options.


Insurance and Coverage in Sicily 

To ensure a worry-free journey, we offer a range of insurance options, including:

  • Collision Damage Waiver (CDW)
  • Theft Protection
  • Full Coverage Insurance
  • 24/7 Roadside Assistance

Choose the insurance plan that best fits your needs and enjoy the peace of mind of knowing you're covered.


Book Early for the Best Deals
