Hertz at Ferrara

Car hire in Ferrara is a must if you plan to visit towns and cities beyond Ferrara's borders. Visit our local branch in Ferrara to arrange this. Ferrara is a beautiful city whatever the season, so make the most of the town and its Emilia-Romagna region. Hiring a car in Ferrara allows you to visit the town itself as well as its surroundings. The imposing and magnificent castle in the centre of Ferrara is a great sight to behold - though its internal exhibition is a bit quirky and unexpected. Empty rooms lead on to rooms which retain original frescoes, and one room is almost filled by a model version of the castle (which is still quite large).

Traditional tastes Hiring a car in Ferrara allows you to spend time in the city itself, as well as exploring Emilia-Romagna more broadly. Rent a car in Ferrara and tickle your tastebuds - Ferrarese cuisine is magnificent, especially in the winter time, where the 'cappellacci di zucca' (a sort of tortellini-type filled pasta, stuffed with butternut squash and amaretti biscuit flavoured with nutmeg) and the speciality 'pasticcio' (a macaroni-filled pastry pie, available with sweet or savoury pastry) really come into their own. Either way, you are going to want to walk off some calories after such a hearty and satisfying meal. Head for Enoteca al Brindisi, not far from the castle, for traditional fare in reputedly the oldest wine bar in the world.
