Anyone Used Holiday Autos From Bergamo?

Just wondering what company holiday autos use out of Bergamo as they are way cheaper than who I usually use.

Cheers in advance.

TCT.

  • Yes we used them and they were ok, but make sure you have additional car insurance before you go. In italy they try to charge nearly as much for the additional insurance as the car hire
  • I think Holiday autos covers the waiver rip off for a further charge.

    I think you do have to pay any damage, and then reclaim it from HA.

    Read the website for current terms and conditions.

    Last time in Italy, we used:

    with no problems - also a consolidator.

    Cannot remember but been to italy quite a few times and most have an extra charge for top up insurance or you have to pay something eextortionate like 500 euros for a scratch. Got caught out 1st time, after that I allways get additional cover before I go for a fraction of the cost

    I day trip into Bergamo every month and usually hire a car through Avis to collect the airmiles but Holiday Autos prices come out at 50% of Avis.

    I just want to make sure that the hire company is actually on site.
