While there are public buses that connect the airport with the city center, they only run every 30 minutes and are quite often packed full with other travelers.

Downtown Cagliari is only a short 5-mile drive from Enterprise's branch at Cagliari airport. In normal traffic conditions, the journey should take around 10 minutes. Getting to the city is easy and will only require a drive along route E25, a signposted motorway that runs along the beautiful western coast of Sardinia.

Cagliari’s historic centre is teeming with charming sites. The most well-known attractions include the Roman amphitheatre, the stately Reggio Palace, and the Prezzemolo Tower, all which offer spectacular sunset views. Getting around by car is most convenient, especially since it makes it very easy to come and go from the town's centre to many of the city’s top beaches, like Poetto, Cala Fighera, and Calamosca.

Given its seaside setting, Cagliari constitutes an ideal base to explore the sun-kissed coastline of southern Sardinia, which still remains mostly unspoiled. Pula is often referred to as the prettiest village in the southern area of Sardinia, which can be easily reached with a 40-minute drive. Nearby Pula is Nora, a crescent-shaped beach, as well as an imposing Colltellazzo fortress that overlooks the tranquil waters of the Mediterranean. Driving 35 miles east of Cagliari will lead you to the Capo Ferrato area, a dramatic stretch of coast, where it's not hard to find a secluded bay away from the crowds, even during the peak seasons.

There are several convenient parking locations throughout the city center. Most spaces can be found by the Marina, behind the train station, and near the cathedral. You should also be aware of local on-street parking regulations. Do not to park in spaces marked with yellow lines, as these are reserved for pass holders only. White lines indicate that car parking is free, while blue lines indicate that the spaces are standard pay-and-display car parking areas. You may also want to keep in mind that cars are not allowed in the historic center at certain times of the day, usually from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m., as well as overnight. Identifying restricted traffic zones is easy, especially since there are street signals similar to traffic lights that indicate when parking access is limited.
