Rent a Car in Crete

When you are looking for a car in Crete that will suit your needs as well as being within your budget, there are a number of different car rental shops that operate in the region. Because of the relatively small size of the island, car rental offers can be very competitive and there is bound to be one that can offer you the services you are looking for. It's important to note that when you are looking for car rentals in Crete you should also consider what sort of car you wish to rent. If you have a small family with young children who need to be picked up and dropped off several times during the day, then a smaller vehicle such as a midsize car is the way to go. However, if you are travelling with a larger group and need a spacious vehicle such as an SUV or a truck, then it's more advisable to book a large vehicle like a truck so you can accommodate all of your luggage.

 

If you are visiting Crete for the first time and are in need of a car rental, then you can always ask around amongst friends and colleagues who have been before. Be sure to enquire about the best car hire offers in Crete as many of the larger car rental companies do operate on a seasonal basis in Crete and you can find a good choice of cars if you look hard enough. The smaller car rental firms tend to only operate at certain times of the year so you should do a bit of research before committing yourself to a specific company. Many of the larger companies do tend to have their own sites where you can go to rent a car, however the smaller ones tend to have more local stores which might have more reasonably priced cars available for rent. You can always call up a car rental company and ask for prices of particular makes of car and also what days of the week, they tend to operate.

 

There are also some car rental offers available online and while you might have to wait for a day or two for the car to be delivered, the price will be cheaper than if you had gone to visit a rental agency. Be sure to check the mileage that the car has carried us on it and also check the car for any signs of damage. If you come across any problems during the rental period, then the insurance company might pay for them. It is always worth getting the car checked out beforehand as any problem can be very expensive to fix.

A number of car hire companies offer special deals during the summer months. While it might seem like driving into Crete wouldn't make sense as it's a warm climate, many car rental companies do have their bases in Crete and will offer special deals to people who want to rent a car during the peak season. Some of the biggest car hire companies such as Avis, Europcar, Hertz, Sixt, Luckycar and Budget, will offer discounts during this time as they know Crete is going to be busy with tourists. However, there are other car rental companies who cater for those coming in from other countries, so if you come from out of the country and are concerned about the high costs of travelling back home then it might be a good idea to rent a car for the day and return later that night or the next day.
