Ischia Car Rental

[csmith]

Hi everyone,
Visiting Ischia for a week in September and I want to rent a car for a few days to be able to travel around the island without relying on buses or pricey taxis. The problem I am experiencing in my search is that there are only Ischia rental companies (no larger brands), which is okay, but none of them seem to offer a zero deductible insurance which I always get in Italy (even though it's more $).

Has anyone here rented a car in Ischia? Recommendations or any experiences or advice with my issue would be appreciated.

You might consider renting on the mainland and taking the car over on the ferry. When we were there several years we took our personal car over on the ferry for a few days. Check with the ferry companies in advance if any restrictions.

"If you plan to rent a car in Campania and take it to the island of Ischia, you will not be able to board. You will have to rent the car outside the Campania region or directly on the island of Ischia."
