Arriving in Volterra and want to avoid stress, restricted traffic zones, and wasted time? Here you'll find the most convenient parking options, with rates and direct links to Google Maps.
This is the guide I always send to guests: clear, concrete, and without panic.

  1.  Enter your license plate at the parking meter
  2.  Display the ticket
  3.  At night it is often free (8pm→8am)
  4.  Useful apps: EasyPark / MyCicero

Basic Rules (in 20 seconds)

In paid parking lots, you usually have to enter your license plate at the parking meter and show your ticket. If you want to extend your stay without returning to your car, you can do so conveniently with EasyPark or MyCicero.
In many areas, parking is free at night (approximately from 8:00 PM to 8:00 AM).
