Get your luggage, exit the gates of Perugia Airport (PEG-Sant Egidio), and collect your rental car. Which one you grab the keys to depends on where you plan to go. If you’ll be spending most of your time driving in downtown Perugia, around 6 miles from the terminal, you’ll want something zippy. A compact car with good handling will suit those bustling city streets. But with a smorgasbord of things to see, like the scenic alpine meadows of the region, you may want to make a few pit stops. A bigger vehicle, like a full-size car or an SUV, will make lengthier road trips more comfortable.
