Trapani is the low, sea-wrapped town on Sicily's western tip, with the salt pans and windmills to the south and the hilltop town of Erice hanging above it. The airport at Birgi is a quiet alternative to Palermo and puts you within easy reach of Segesta, the beaches at San Vito Lo Capo, Marsala and the ferry ports for the Egadi islands. Our partner network compares local and international rental companies with live prices.

Renting a car in Trapani: common questions
Is Trapani a good base for western Sicily?
Yes, arguably the best one. Erice, the salt pans, Segesta, Marsala and San Vito Lo Capo are all comfortable day trips, the roads are quieter than around Palermo, and the town has parking on the edge of the old centre. Leave the car behind for the Egadi islands, which are a foot-passenger hydrofoil ride from the port.
Any tips for driving up to Erice or around San Vito?
The road up to Erice is steep and full of hairpins, and the old village restricts visitor cars, so park below and walk or take the cable car from Trapani. The road to San Vito Lo Capo is easy but the town's car parks fill up on summer weekends, so arrive early or plan a morning at the Zingaro reserve instead.
What licence do I need?
A full driving licence held for at least a year is the usual requirement, and each company sets its own minimum age and young-driver conditions. If your licence is not in the Latin alphabet, bring an International Driving Permit alongside it. The exact conditions for every car are shown before you book.
Is there a deposit, and what about insurance?
Deposit and insurance terms differ between companies in Trapani, so they are shown per car before you book. You will see what is included, what the excess is, and whether a deposit is held on your card at the desk.
Where does the booking actually happen?
You search from this page and see live cars and prices on our partner’s site. When you choose one, the booking completes on their secure checkout, where you confirm the details and receive your voucher. Show the voucher at the desk on pick-up.
