Hiring a car at Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport (BLQ)

Bologna is served by the international Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport, which is located a few miles northwest of the city. Hiring a car at Bologna Airport allows you the freedom to drive straight to your hotel in the city, or easily start your journey into the wider region of Emilia-Romagna. An Enterprise Rent-A-Car branch is conveniently located on the ground floor of the airport. Their friendly staff is always happy to assist visitors, so they can continue on their trips as smoothly as possible. The airport is just off the E45, which leads northwest towards Parma and Milan, and it also links to the E35, that heads south towards Florence. Bologna is the capital city of Emilia-Romagna, which is known as the bread-basket of Italy. Famous for its cuisine, it has the nickname of La Grassa, meaning 'the fat one'. Locally-sourced foods include bolognese (known locally as ragu), tortellini, tagliatelle, prosciutto, and parmigiano. Bologna also lays claim to the oldest university in Western Europe, which includes the Archiginnasio, an anatomical theatre for the dissection of bodies. The medieval Old Town in Bologna is well preserved and includes the Due Torri, two towers that were built during a time when ruling families of the city competed and vied for power and dominance. Nearby destinations for day trips in your rental car include the Republic of San Marino, one of the smallest countries in the world; and Maranello, the home of Ferrari and the city of Ferrara, which boasts Castello Estense and the Palazzo dei Diamanti Art Gallery.

To rent a car from Enterprise Rent-A-Car in the United States and Canada, you will need the following:

  • To be 25 years old 
  • A valid driving licence with a photo
  • A photo ID (for example: a driving licence or passport)
  • Credit or debit card (check the acceptable forms of payment at the location you're renting from)

Some locations may require additional information, including but not limited to: 

  • An International Driving Permit (IDP): If the licence is written in a language or characters different from those of the country of rental, an IDP is also required. Renters are advised to check whether local authorities require foreign drivers to present an International Driving Permit to avoid the risk of potential fines. Renters with licences from countries that are not part of the International Driving Permit Agreement should carry a certified translation.
  • Return travel and accommodation information: Visitors to the UK must also provide proof of return travel and accommodation information while in the UK.
