Good car and friendly service, reasonable price. Two points for improvement: 1. Web site has no option to change or cancel the reservation, must communicate by email. This is slow and inconvenient. 2.... See more

Sicily by Car S.p.A. Compagnia leader nel settore dell'autonoleggio, è stata fondata nel 1963 da Tommaso Dragotto, che ha iniziato la propria scommessa imprenditoriale con un parco auto costituito da una Fiat 1300, una Fiat 1100 e due Fiat 500. In seguito ad un programma di espansione aziendale e commerciale, e grazie all'esperienza e professionalità del team di Direzione che ha permesso alla Compagnia di diventare una vera realtà nazionale, dal 1997 la Sicily by Car , varca i confini regionali ed assicurandosi un mercato di più vaste dimensioni. Sicily by Car ha avuto nel corso degli anni uno sviluppo costante ed è presente in tutte le principali città italiane con oltre 60 uffici. Oggi dispone di una flotta di oltre 20.000 vetture. Nella nostra flotta potrai trovare dalle piccole utilitarie per spostarti agevolmente nel traffico cittadino, alle auto decappottabili per riscoprire il piacere di una guida brillante e dinamica, fino alle auto di lusso per non passare inosservati. Se ti occorre spazio per un soggiorno con la tua famiglia o con i tuoi amici più cari, una station wagon o un minivan 9 posti potrebbe essere la tua soluzione di noleggio su misura. Se hai bisogno di un mezzo per trasportare merci voluminose legate alla tua attività lavorativa o perché devi effettuare un trasloco, avrai a disposizione un'intera gamma di furgoni su misura per te. I nostri veicoli elettrici sono il vanto di un'azienda come la nostra, che da sempre guarda al futuro e che ha a cuore il rispetto dell'ambiente e lo sviluppo eco-sostenibile.

I booked a large estate car for a ski trip. We needed a large trunk for all our luggage. When we arrived at the Milan airport at pick up location (about 11pm), we were told there were no estate cars available and were offered us a much smaller car. We couldn't fit all our luggage in such a small car, so we could not take this car. SicilyByCar did not manage to fulfil their obligations. We had to spend a night and a half of next day trying to find an estate car from another supplier, which we finally did. SicilyByCar lied to us, initially they said "sorry," and admitted their mistake. But when we asked for a refund since the car was fully prepaid, they advised us to contact customer service later. A month and a half later, they refunded only €41, even though I paid €700. They didn't explain the reason and didn't respond to my emails. If I lived in Italy, I could at least go to their office, but I don't think they'll do anything about it, since they're scammers!
As I see from other reviews, this isn't the only case where they can't provide the reserved car of the required category. Also, please note that for our trip to the mountains, they offered us a much smaller car with a summer tires, which should be illegal to drive.
I do not recommend using this company!
First of all, I made the mistake of booking and prepaying two cars with a debit card, which is a rookie mistake, I know, but since everything was payed in advance including the insurance, I didn't give it too much thought.
When we arrived in Milan airport we found out about the need for a credit card, which meant we could not get the car we had already payed for and was offered no refund. One car was a convertible, which we were really excited to drive in Italy during summer, but this car was not available and they offered us another that was not a convertible - We did not accept this and got told that the car was 5-6 hours away. We got incredibly angry and after 20 minutes the convertible suddenly appeared in the garage.
During this whole interaction with the staff, we were met with zero understanding of how it's annoying to not get the cars that you have prepaid for, lying about the availability of the convertible and getting a cheaper car without any refund, now forcing my older dad to drive this long station wagon through the narrow streets of Modena, when I especially booked and paid for another type for him.
The staff interaction was some of the worst I've ever experienced and ruined the first few hours of our trip, like an experience that takes some time to shake off.
Booked a car from Sicily by Car at Verona airport. When we went to the desk on Saturday 27th December morning, we found the rudest person ever behind the desk. We had confirmed a reservation for a manual car weeks before but he told us that they only had automatic available at that time, and I don't drive automatic vehicles. The only effort he made was to check about a manual car which was supposed to be returned 1 hour later. If I had to wait, it meant that we would disrupt the plan for the day. And to make it worse, I heard him talking in Italian over the phone saying that this car would be returned with two hours and not one. Little did he realise that I understand Italian perfectly and that I caught him in a lie.
But what irritated me most was this attendant's miserable attitude throughout the process and particularly, when he was saying that I accepted that he would cancel the booking when I had not. I had just advised him that I needed to make a phone call to Autoeurope, thanks to whom I eventually managed to get a full refund when I had no other option. Thankfully, we got a better deal for a car from the opposite desk at Hertz who offered excellent service.
The windshield wipers were broken and it was raining and it was almost impossible to drive the car.
High quality service and easy to find into the terminal

The car was very comfortable. It had everything we needed. The contact with "Sicily by car" was great. I strongly recommend it!

Very courteous and clear assistance. Everything was exactly as stated and truly excellent.

They gave me a unsafe and poorly maintained car that caused me to lose my flight. They didn't answer phone calls. The car wasn't insured with the road assistance firm they gave us. The road assistance partners barely spoke English. Sicily by car themselves are utterly incompetent in all areas and failed at every single point they could. They are slow to answer emails. Simply choose another company. Never do business with them.
