Traffic Information

Traffic Information

The Costa Smerelda Airport is just outside the centre of Olbia, and a short distance from the main SS125 and SS127 roads that lead into the city. Arranging car hire in Olbia is therefore the best way to get from the airport into the heart of Olbia without having to rely on public transport.
Once you have collected your car rental in Olbia, you can begin your exploration of the city. Olbia is a beautiful place to discover, with its palm lined waterfront, pretty piazzas with their street cafes and medieval San Simplicio basilica. If you are in the area on business, our airport rental office is just a short drive from the economic centre of the island as well as the port with its industrial zone.
Olbia is a city with an ancient history dating back to Roman times. Now a popular tourist destination, it is well linked to the rest of the island with a fast expressway to Cagliari and Nuro as well as excellent national roads to the other major towns. While narrower and slower, the pretty provincial roads around the Olbia are, perhaps, even more fun to explore since they offer spectacular views of the local scenery as well as access to authentic villages.
Sixt Tip

If you are looking for lively nightlife, you should head to the Località Abbiadori, where you will find the trendiest clubs, however if something more laid back is your style, there are plenty of relaxing bars in the heart of the city itself or in the Porto Cervo area. For a more cultural night out, try the Olbia Civic Theatre, an open air venue with a panoramic background of the Gulf of Olbia.

Excellent service, courteous and kind staff. No hard selling (unfortunately it happens quite often in car rental) Special thanks to Luca who served us and make us feel welcome. He brought us to the car and changed the system language. 100% recommended

OCTOBER 2022: We were very pleasantly surprised to get a free upgrade to a brand new BMW 220, from a Fiat 500. (We'd like to thank the agent who did that for us, I'm not sure I remember the name but I think it was Giuseppe). Everything went smoothly. We made the booking ONLINE in advance which seemed to be the better option, as people next to us wanted to book the car on the spot, but small cars were not available anymore, and therefore they had to pay a larger fee. We already paid for the smaller car, but since they didn't have any left, we got a bigger car for the same price. The agent showed us all the scratches on the car during the handover, which we took photos of. On return, we provided these photos to prove that all the scratches were preexisting and there were no issues with the return. Overall it was a great and stress-free experience.
