You can count on a smooth driving experience in Salento because it features properly signed roads and users who respect road regulations. To make the most of your driving in this region, note that drivers take advantage of any space you give in its populous towns like Puglia; you may have to stop before entering a traffic circle; drivers don't always yield to traffic in the roundabout; and you will likely come across potholes and bumpy roads. Since most of the roads are narrow, your best driving experience will be in a small car.

In Salento, you can rent the car of your choice from your preferred car rental company, provided you're above 21 years. Most agencies in the region charge drivers below the age of 25 a young driver surcharge. Hence, you will likely pay more than older renters if you're below the noted age. Document-wise, you will need a valid driver's license, an International Driving Permit, and a passport. For your license to be deemed valid, you must have held it for at least 12 months. It must also not be expired or suspended.
