The process of a car reservation on OrangeSmile.com consists of 3 simple steps: (1) search by the dates and pick-up location, (2) car type selection, and (3) booking form completion. After the booking, you will receive a rental voucher at your e-mail address.
Before selecting a specific model to book, check your planned routes. If you are going to drive mostly within the Ancona borders, choose a car of 'Standard' or 'Compact' types. In case you plan long cross-countries trips or mountain adventures, the more comfortable and powerful 'Fullsize' models would become a better choice.
If you need a car with an automatic gearbox, try to make a reservation at least a few days before the pick-up date, since confirmation of such models in Ancona might be delayed for a day or two.
Upon the return of your car, carefully check that the total payment amount (invoice) is computed according to the original rental conditions.
We wish you 'smooth', secure and safe roads in Ancona!
Rental process FAQ
The majority of parking lots, equipped with ticket machines, are free from 20:00 to 8:00. Finding a free space on them in the evening is also very difficult, so tourists are recommended to book a hotel, which is equipped with a private parking. In order to leave a car for a night at a multi-level parking lot, you will need to pay around 35 - 40 euro.
It should be noted that local drivers turn on the turn signal only if they are really going to turn. If you just need to move from one lane to another, turning on a turn signal is not necessary. It is simply not common here.
Foreign drivers who travel in a car with foreign numbers are an “easy prey” for the local police. The police can forgive minor violations to local people, while foreigners should not expect such a compromise. Therefore, it is better to follow all the rules punctually.
