Yes. Because the booked car was unavailable, the staff let me choose any car in the parking lot at will, but when I looked, they were all manual transmission.

Friends, have any of you rented a car from Avis in Italy? I rented a car in Florence and bought full insurance. Just 1 kilometer after driving off, I smelled something burning, and Avis gave me a new contract and a new car. Today I found out that they charged me 1445 euros for the previous car, even though I had full insurance. Has anyone else experienced this situation ? Italy Q&A

The time of travel may not be in the peak season for tourists. It also has something to do with going to pick up the car early. In April, I rented a car in Switzerland and booked a Jeep Compass. They gave me a Volvo S40. I saw that my friends often upgrade when they drive in Europe, so I thought it was normal. It's really hard to explain why the automatic is automatically given a manual. If you can't drive a manual, what should you do? The price is also different.. ? Italy Q&A

If you haven't picked up the car yet, you can cancel it. If you booked with Avis at Rome Fiumicino, hurry up and cancel. They don't have the car model you booked, their service attitude is poor, and they automatically add insurance through 'upgrading the car model' without your consent. When I went to pick up the car on the 10th, I had to wait for at least two hours, at least! They can give you all the annoying things you can think of when renting a car. The most annoying thing is that I booked an Audi A3, but they claimed to upgrade me and gave me a two-door Fiat 500c instead! How can anyone travel with two large suitcases in a two-door car? Before I got the car, they kept saying it's similar to an Audi and definitely enough. After waiting for two hours, I finally got the car. Do I have to return it and wait for another two hours ?

Can anyone tell me if you have received a fine notice from the car rental company after returning the car? They said I was fined for speeding, but they didn't say how much, and then the customer service asked me to wait for a registered letter from the post office, but I don't even know if the mailing address provided by the car rental company is correct... What do you guys usually do in this situation ? Italy Q&A

For buses that don't stop or announce the stations, how do you ensure you don't get off at the wrong stop? It seems that in Italy, buses don't announce the stations and only stop when someone needs to get on or off, and you have to press a red button to signal that you want to get off... The method of counting the stations and listening for announcements doesn't work, so do you rely on the driver to call out the stops? But what if you don't speak Italian and the bus is crowded? Looking out for landmarks? You need to have landmarks to look at, and it's hard to see them when it's dark or when the bus is crowded... So the only thing I can think of is to look at the GPS location on the map... Do you have any clever tricks for this ? Italy Q&A

Hello everyone, could you please tell me if you have rented a GPS when you went to the Dolomites and Amalfi? I find it hard to search for cable car stations, lakes, hiking starting points.
