Alba Guide

In the region of Piemonte, the town of Alba attracts a healthy number of tourists due to its cobbled streets, which are embellished by a backdrop of Renaissance and Baroque buildings. The town also boasts medieval towers and inviting restaurants, as well as an endearing annual donkey race.

Situated on the central Piazza Risorgimento is the Gothic Duomo, which still retains some of its historical integrity although it has seen some heavy restoration. Visitors flock to the town in early October to see the unusual donkey race, which kicks off at a meeting place behind the Via Cavour.

Alba is definitely the perfect location for lazy strolling. Via Vittorio Emanuele, the main drag, stretches to the centre from Piazza Savona. It is at times a frenzied street, with the locals selling produce, including: wines, truffles, cakes, cheeses and all manner of mushrooms. April and May are the wine tasting months; while late October is host to the truffle festival.

If you want to taste exemplary Albese cuisine, then head to the excellent Osteria dell'Arco. Situated at Piazza Savona 5, this pleasant and affordable restaurant serves typical local dishes and also has a particularly fine selection of local cheeses.

If you are fortunate enough to be in the area with your own transport, then a trip to the quaint village of Neive, located about 13kms north of Alba, is a must. Il Contea restaurant at Piazza Cocito 8, offers superlative food and some of the best Barbaresco, Dolcetto and Barolo wines from the nearby vineyards. It also has comfortable rooms with antique beds and whitewashed walls, in case you want to stay the night.

The only downside to the charming town of Alba is the fact that it’s so hard to get to. The best way is to arrive in Torino and take the Torino-Piacenza highway to Asti, and then follow signs for Alba. You can get to Torino by air, bus or train.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is Carrentals.co.uk the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

 What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

 Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

 What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

 How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

 When will I get a confirmation of my booking?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).
