Great car and clear communication

Clear communication and straight- forward process.
Car was new and drove very good, easy to connect with phone, which allowed easy navigation and listening to music.

Tried, Tested and Trusted

This is our third time using Locauto and yet again they did not dissapoint.

Having used Locauto in Tuscany, and Lake Garda previously, with only great experiences at both we decided to stick with them for Rome.
Firstly rental prices are fair not cheap and not too expensive (booked online before the trip).
The car was fairly new and in great condition with air conditioning.
The service at both desks was excellent the staff were beyond friendly and helpful.
There are optional extras offered but you don't have to takes them. The extra we took was to pay €100 to cover return of vehicle with an empty tank as it is very expensive to refuel in Rome.

All in all another great experience with Locauto we will be using them again.

Dear Locauto Customer Service,

Dear Locauto Customer Service,

I am writing regarding a car rental booked with Locauto.

We picked up the car at your Milan Central Station office. At the time of pick-up, we paid the required rental charges, and we also separately paid the fee for returning the vehicle at Bergamo Airport.

However, when we returned the car at Bergamo Airport on August 16, 2026, a Locauto employee requested an additional €170, explaining that this charge was required specifically because the vehicle was being returned at the airport.

We do not understand this additional charge, as we had already paid separately for the one-way/airport drop-off when we picked up the vehicle in Milan.

According to the final rental statement we received, there is already a “One Way Fee” of €73.20 plus €10.98 in VAT, and we would therefore like to understand why we were asked to pay an additional €170 at the time of returning the vehicle.

Could you please review our rental agreement and payment records and clarify:
1. What exactly the additional €170 charge was for;
2. Why this amount was requested at Bergamo Airport despite the drop-off fee already having been paid;
3. Whether this charge was correctly applied according to our rental agreement.

If the €170 was charged incorrectly or duplicated a fee that we had already paid, we kindly request that the amount be refunded to our original payment method.

I have attached the final rental statement for your reference.

I look forward to your explanation and resolution of this matter.

Kind regards,
AIVAZIAN ADON

Dear Adon, thank you for choosing Locauto and sharing your feedback regarding your rentals in Milan and Bergamo. We have thoroughly reviewed your contract and currently do not see a record of the €170 charge you referenced. We are looking into this further, but please rest assured that the amount you were charged in Milan represents your final and total bill.
If you need further support you can get in touch with our Customer Service at the link https://portale.locautorent.com/websitecs/cs-home.aspx.

The pick up took such a long time

The pick up took such a long time. We rented the car for 9 o’clock and we had to wait for 45 min outside in the sun and almost mist our plane.
