In your Catania rental car from SIXT, you can enjoy Sicily your way. To make your trip as wonderful as possible, keep the following in mind:

  • Taking pictures from the car: Avoid snapping photos of the breathtaking scenery while driving. The Autostrada and many smaller roads have safe spots where you can pull over.

Rented a car from Palermo and dropped off at Catania. Got a nearly new BMW 2 Series Active Tourer with a great spec. Easy return to Car Park 4 and very efficient service by Giovanni - thanks! He also told me Sixt have the best fleet in Sicily ‘the only company with BMW’s for example’ so I wouldn’t hesitate to pick Sixt again.

Giovanni and the front gate agent Gabrielle were fantastic. Helpful, efficient and kinds. I am a value traveler and have rented cheap vehicles. Consider spending a few more $ for less headaches and better vehicles. I paid for an upgrade at check in and the BMW diesel was fantastic - 1200 KM to a tank! They excel at service service service - it’s worth the extra €15-50 euros per day for no headaches and ease of check in. CTA Sixt keep doing what you’re doing
