Sixt, Palermo Airport, Sicily: Quick and efficient to pickup car at arrival. We even got a nice upgrade. No trouble returning the car. I have multiple very bad experiences with different car rental companies (even reputable) in Southern Europe, so our experience with Sixt NOT trying to scam us was very nice for once :) Highly recommended.

I used this service for the first time and was very satisfied. I needed a car immediately after arriving, and they had one available. The request was processed quickly, and they offered several options at a fair price. Overall, it was a smooth experience, and I’ll definitely consider using them again in the future.
