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.

Fiat Panda in Crete

The inconvenience was at the airport as we could not find the car. The next day the car was delivered to our hotel. The car is very good and economical. I liked the attitude of the person who delivered the car to us. Maximum easy and quick execution of the documents of the transfer of the car to the client. In general, we liked your company. I will recommend your services to my friends!

Toyota Yaris in Crete

Car, service and communication were excellent. When our car got damaged by another one while parked at night, Nikos was handling everything in a very professional and impeccable way. I would definitely rent again from him.
