Tuscany hill towns are where a car wins; Florence and Rome centres often are not. If your itinerary leaves the rail spine, compare PSA pickup on Book Your Trip’s DiscoverCars compare. Checkout is on DiscoverCars.com — we are not the rental company. Quotes move with season and lead time. This page is the airport decision, not a price list and not a Rome sightseeing loop.

PSA pickup

Galileo Galilei (PSA) is the usual collect when Tuscany is the trip and you landed in Pisa. Read the voucher for the desk, then decide whether the first night is in town with somewhere to leave the car.

  • Desk or shuttle, named on the voucher

    Some brands sit in the Pisa Airport arrivals hall. Others run a short shuttle to a lot beside Galileo Galilei. The confirmation email names the meeting point — do not assume a row of cars outside baggage claim. Allow time after landing before you are on the A11 or A12.

  • Park outside the centro

    Florence, Siena and most walled towns run a camera-enforced ZTL. A hire car that follows GPS through the historic centre is a fine, then an admin fee from the supplier. Sleep the first night in Pisa if you want a parking-friendly start, and walk the centres.

  • Same-day return is a train day

    If you only need Florence or a single countryside loop, you do not need keys at PSA. The rail spine and a booked day tour cover that. Collect the car on the morning the itinerary leaves the line.

First night beside the airport? Search Pisa hotels on Trip.com. The homepage fold for the days you are not driving is Florence, Siena, Chianti.

Car vs train in Tuscany

Stay on the train when the days are Florence and Rome centres. Timed museums, the walk across the river, and a metro ride do not need a hire car — and the centro is a ZTL, not a shortcut. Hire when the map leaves the Pisa–Florence–Rome line: Chianti villages without a useful station, San Gimignano, the Val d’Orcia.

A single countryside day from Florence is usually a tour, not a week of keys. The booked version is Siena, San Gimignano and Pisa with lunch, or Chianti tastings from Florence. In the city, book the Uffizi and walk. Those checkouts are on Viator. The same three sit on the homepage Pisa and Tuscany fold.

Documents

Bring a full driving licence in the lead driver’s name, a passport or national ID, and the card the booking names for the deposit hold. An International Driving Permit is the right extra when the licence does not use Roman letters, or when the offer asks for one at the desk. Many suppliers expect the driver to be at least 21; some vehicle classes ask for 25. The voucher is the list that counts — Book Your Trip does not hand over the keys.

The deposit is a hold, not a fee this page can quote. It sits on a credit card in the lead driver’s name and moves with the car and the excess you accept. Read that line before you pay, then photograph the car in the lot. There is no date prefilled on the compare hop — you choose pickup dates on DiscoverCars.com.

FAQ

Where do I pick up a car at Pisa Airport?

When is a car better than the train in Tuscany?

The train is the better tool for Florence and Rome centres, and for a straight Pisa–Florence–Rome line. A car wins when you leave that spine for Chianti villages, San Gimignano or the Val d’Orcia. One countryside Tuesday from Florence is often a tour, not keys for the week. Florence, Siena and Chianti on the homepage →

What documents do I need to hire a car at PSA?

What deposit should I check before I pay?

Suppliers place a hold on a credit card in the lead driver’s name. The amount and which cards they accept depend on the car and the excess, so read the hold on the offer rather than a guessed figure. Photograph the car in the lot before you leave PSA. Compare Pisa Airport cars →
