Generally GOOD experience, but I DON'T like working through middlemen to get the "BEST" rate when renting cars -- especially in Spain.
I sometimes get the feeling that the entire car rental ecosystem in Spain is nothing more than a rigged game.

Which car to rent in Olbia and which route to take from the city?
The type of car hire in Olbia you choose will depend on the style of travel you have in mind. If you plan to get around the city centre or take short routes along the north coast of Sardinia, a compact or economy car will suffice. However, if your idea is to make a more extensive tour of the island, including stops in nearby towns, it is best to opt for an SUV or estate car, which will give you greater comfort on long journeys and more space for luggage.
A highly recommended route with your car rental in Olbia can start by exploring the beaches of the Costa Smeralda and continue west to Sassari, a town steeped in history just over an hour's drive away. From there you can continue south to Cagliari, the capital of Sardinia, enjoying coastal scenery and gastronomic stops. If you're looking for a longer getaway, you can cross to the mainland and head for Palermo or even Bari, combining ferry and road. This route by car offers you the possibility of getting to know various corners of southern Italy with total freedom and at the pace you decide.
With Pepecar you can choose from a wide range of cheap car hire in Olbia, adapted to every type of route and need.
