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.

Hyundai Tucson in Crete

In general, everything is on time, the car is in good working order, Hyundai Tyukson, increased fuel consumption (it is for 1.6 euros per liter) and, of course, the size of its vehicle for the small streets of Crete was completely inappropriate. For female legs, the grip would be deadly heavy. There were no options left, we took it, in general we did not become upset, only the fuel costs were twice as high as planned. Adonis, the manager behaved very well and responsibly, in principle, next time I think we will turn to them, although we will first discuss the exact model of the car))).

Jeep Renegade in Crete

The service was excellent, we got the car I ordered, I had to take it in Herakleon, and it was no problem to drop it off in Chania. The contract is simple, no deposit, paid in cash euros. Convenient. This is not the first time I have ordered from you.

I liked everything, in terms of money and time, as agreed, nothing more. No deposit was taken. The car is old, but there were no complaints about its work. Loved the delivery right to the hotel!

Skoda Octavia in Crete

The car was a Skoda Octavia, produced in 2011, as for me this is an old car for rent, we do not have cars older than 2017 in Ukraine, then the level of technical fluids in the car, apparently, is not checked, because one day the indicator for the absence of antifreeze came on, I had to buy and refill, but in general I drove where I needed. But these are all little things, in general I am satisfied, since the car in Crete is a problem, so thanks for helping with the car. Honestly, if I am asked about the possibility of renting a car in Crete, I will give the coordinates of your company, as the price is much lower than that of large, international rental operators. Thanks again.

Peugeot 208 in Crete

The car is good. Despite the broken screen of the radio, the rest was all the rules. I didn't think the car was so spacious. We 4 adults fit very comfortably in the car. There was a problem with the delivery of the car to the parking lot. no one met us. But, in about 20 minutes we found the required parking lot. Only why, then they took an additional fee for renting a car outside of working hours - remains a mystery. The rest, on the wheelbarrow - no questions. I liked the island too. Thanks.
