Car Hire in Crete…

Bookmark and Share

This Car Hire in Crete page is from the Holidays in Crete and Living in Crete sections of the Completely Crete website.

Car hire in Crete is probably the best way to explore this beautiful Greek island. There are plenty of good car rental companies and hire car agencies offering everything from small scooters to large 4x4 land cruisers.



Car Hire in Crete is relatively inexpensive and driving is normally a pleasure with good roads free from heavy traffic.

See our Driving in Crete guide for hints and tips of how to get the most from driving around this fabulous island.

Being the largest of the Greek Islands, Crete is quite big and measures 260 by 60 kms. So there's a lot of ground to cover if you want to see all the magnificent scenery and sites the Island has to offer.

There are car rental companies in all four prefectures covering the areas of Chania, Rethymnon, Heraklion and Lassithi.

You can pick up your hire car directly at Chania Airport or Heraklion Airport, or arrange pick up in each capital town of Hania, Rethymno, Iraklion and Agios Nikolaos. You can even arrange to have your hire car delivered to your hotel or apartment.

It’s a good idea to book your hire car in advance. During the height of the season in July and August, when demand is at its peak, booking is essential. There are many online services available for getting around in Crete by hire car. One that stands out is holidayautos.co.uk

We really do recommend hiring a car to get around Crete, to enjoy your stay fully. There are many companies that offer car hire on Crete, but we think it's a good idea to book in advance with nationally recognised companies who offer the right insurance.
