Crete is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Greece, and it's no wonder why: you can find everything here. Dive into history by visiting Heraklion, an ancient city rich in history.

Other notable museums, such as the Historical Museum and the Natural History Museum of Crete, reflect the city’s historical significance. Stroll through the city’s charming town, where the Agios Minas Cathedral stands out.

Other historical sites spread throughout the island that you won't miss by renting a car in Crete include the Palace of Knossos, the Monastery of Arkadi, and the Lychnostatis Open Air Museum.

Enjoy some of the best beaches in the Mediterranean Sea. The island offers a variety of beaches: sandy, pebble, coves, hidden, urban, and popular. You decide which one you like best. For those looking to escape the crowds, we recommend visiting Sfakia Beach, Katholiko Bay, Seitan Limania, and Glaros Beach.

Frequently Asked Questions about Car Rental in Crete

It’s simple: choose your destination and the pick-up date. Click on 'Check prices and availability now'. Finally, select the type of vehicle you want to rent and click 'Book'.

The main driver needs these four documents to be able to collect the car (all must be original documents and in the drivers' name): a credit card with embossed numbers and sufficient credit to cover the deposit amount and any extras, passport or ID card, full driving license and the rental voucher.

You will find all the fuel policy information in Crete in the terms and conditions of each offer and in your voucher. With the full/full option you will collect the car with a full tank and you will have to return it full. Therefore, you will only pay for the fuel you use.

Only drivers whose names appear in the rental contract are allowed to drive the rental car.

Yes. With most companies there is an additional charge to pay for adding an extra driver. You can find information about any possible additional driver fees in the terms and conditions of each offer and also on your rental voucher.

If you want to return the vehicle to a different office than the one it was collected from you need to choose the ‘one way’ option when making your booking. To do this you need to unclick the ‘Return the car to the same location’ box and select where you’d like to return the car. Our search engine will automatically inform you if the route you have chosen is possible. The hire company normally charges a ‘one-way’ fee for returning the car to a different office. If this is the case, it is explained in the conditions before booking and again on the rental voucher.

In most cases the main driver needs a credit card in order to rent a car. Sometimes it is also possible to pay with a debit card. In this case you should contact us and we will try to find a solution.

We are never able to confirm the make, model or color of the car you will receive. Your booking isn’t associated with a specific vehicle (make or model, color, equipment etc) but is for a group of vehicles with similar characteristics. In the event that the requested group is not available you will be given a vehicle from a higher group at no extra cost.

Yes, if you are planning on driving long distances, you can use the filters to the left of the car list page to see prices for rentals with unlimited mileage.

You can check if taking your car abroad is allowed in the terms and conditions of each offer and in your booking voucher.
