A perfect trip around Crete with a rental car

Crete — not just an island, but a whole universe full of legends and fabulous landscapes. From the famous palace of Knossos to the mysterious labyrinth of the Minotaur, every corner of the island is steeped in history. Don't miss the chance to explore the sunken city of Olus, hike the trails of the Samaria Gorge or relax on the sandy beaches of the uninhabited island of Elafonisi.

Is it worth renting a car in Crete?

In Crete, renting a car is not just a convenience, but absolutely a necessity. Many of the scenic spots are accessible only by car, and there is no carsharing on the island, so daily rentals become the best choice for travelers. Plus, with TakeCars you can not only choose the right model from a wide range, but also read real reviews from other users about each provider, which makes the choice much easier!

Gas stations on the island close early, so it's best to plan ahead. Carefully watch the column while refueling to avoid fraud, unfortunately sometimes it happens.

Documents and insurance: what is important to know

All you will be required to rent a car is your passport, driver's license and bank card. In Crete, various insurance options are available — from simple hull insurance to comprehensive insurance that covers all types of damages. At TakeCars, you can see exactly who rents you a car, which adds trust and transparency to the selection process.

Toyota Yaris in Crete

The service is great. The car was driven to the hotel at the appointed time. The owner is a nice young man, he answered all the questions regarding the peculiarities of driving rules in Crete in English. The lease was filled out very quickly, without wasting time. Toyota Yaris is not new. The body and the worn interior are slightly scratched. Despite the aesthetic appearance, the technical condition is normal. Does not stall, the clutch does not slip, the brakes are sharp, the steering wheel does not lead, the wheels do not knock. Rented for two, for 7 days. Dashed off more than 1000 km in the mountains and cities, we were very pleased with the comfort of the trip. We will be in Greece, we will definitely turn to the guys again for services.

Skoda Citigo in Crete

Very happy with this rental service. It seemed that it was simply impossible to find a car in Crete a week before arrival. But through this site for us in a short time they found a comfortable small new car for an adequate price. On the next trip, we will also turn here for a car.

Ford Focus in Crete

I was completely satisfied with both the service and the machine itself. Ford focus was busy that day and they gave me a higher class car. I liked the fact that when the car was handed over, I was met at the airport along with a sign (I didn't have to look for it myself).
