Located in northern Italy, close to the Swiss border, Bergamo is an attractive city in the heart of Lombardy that makes a superb base to discover the wider region. Quality car rentals are served by Enterprise Rent-A-Car from its outlet at Orio al Serio International Airport, as well several branch locations throughout Milan, including one at the central railway station and another in the downtown area of Sesto San Giovanni. Whichever airport you arrive at, driving is recommended for maximum convenience, especially since Bergamo's Old Town, or Città Alta, is located just a few miles down the road from the main transport hubs. Much of the lower part of the city is sprawling and is best explored by car. As such, a car rental in Bergamo makes sense, whether you intend to explore the wider area of Lombardy or stay in the city itself. The narrow streets of Città Alta are open to traffic, although many of the lanes are one-way. The city has a great reputation for its culture, with an established annual jazz festival and a number of theatrical spaces, large and small.
