    Florence Station Rental - Basic route via Vespa to sunset view point

    Florence Station Rental

    Indipendenza

    Riding a Vespa is an iconic, must-do when visiting Italy. It's a great way to experience the city…read moreand travel through the Tuscan countryside. My fiancé and I have never operated a Vespa before and we decided to walk into Florence Station rental at 5pm to book a Vespa for a few hours. Lucky for us, there was one Vespa available and we were able to use it despite the shop closing at 5:30pm! Yuri (I believe this is the owner's name) was very accommodating and generally just great to work with. His English is excellent since he has a wife and child living in Hawaii, he's also visited California (my home state) multiple times. Since it was our first time on a Vespa, he made sure to get us comfortable with using the vehicle by teaching my fiancé and riding with him around the block! His instructions were fantastic. Honestly, the streets of Florence are kind of scary to drive around in, especially during rush hour traffic. Yuri gave us a route and a map that we can follow and basic traffic instructions. Luckily, my fiancé is tall and was able to operate the Vespa smoothly. A tip from me is to book a Vespa early in the day (or online). This shop is popular and vehicles may not be available. The countryside is better to be traveled early in the day when there is still light out. The shop does close at 5:30pm so any rentals late in the day will be charged "sunset pricing" but keys can still be return after the shop closes via a special "key hole" in the gate.

    My group of four rented Vespas and were very impressed with how kind, polite and patient Alex was…read more Only one member in our group had motorcycle/scooter experience. Alex allowed us to go around the block as many times as needed until we were comfortable. We never felt rushed or unvalued. He made the experience phenomenal. He also provided perfect directions to Chanti. This was the highlight of our trip.

    Stazione Ferroviaria Santa Maria Novella

    I needed a car rental agency that was near Santa Maria Novella station. This location fit the bill…read moreperfectly!. They share a garage with a handful of other agencies so check around for the best price and selection. I was able to get a great price online only a few days in advance. We found the place easily and there were about 3-4 parties ahead of us when we arrived. After waiting about 15 minutes, I was helped and the service was very friendly. There were no attempts to upsell. After getting the keys, we were told where the car was within the garage and walked across the street to get it. It was a nice Abarth Fiat 500. I circled it for damage and had a few things added on that wasn't noted. There was a 200km limit per day day so 600km for our 4 day rental. I was worried about this, but it ended up not being an issue. The return was tough as it was hard to navigate all the one-way streets to get back to the garage. I returned after hours so I parked it and dropped the keys off at the designated box and that was it!

    I made this reservation for my honeymoon 4 months prior to our trip and when I arrived at Florence…read more- Via Borgo Ognissanti your employee told us that we needed to be 30 years old to rent the car that I had booked. We're both 29.5. There was no mention on your website of needing to be 30 years old and you were happy to take my money at the time so you can start to see where my frustration comes from. Instead of offering to help fix the situation, your employee told us that you had no more cars and that there was nothing that she could do and to essentially leave. We were then forced to go across the street and rent from another terrible business that made us miss appointments and tours by hours. You should be ashamed of yourselves. At the very least to protect future customers, you should make it clear on your website that you need to be 30yo to rent certain cars. Is there really a difference between 29.5 and 30 that you couldn't have made an exception for our honeymoon? What an embarrassing and horrible experience. I'll be notifying our partnerships team here at TripAdvisor to see what we can do.
