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 500 in Crete

In general, I was satisfied, but of course Fiat has been in battles before us several times. In general, he was old and dead.

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.

Peugeot 307cc in Crete

The owner of the car successfully brought it to the appointed place at the appointed time, the car fully corresponded to the declared one. After a day of use for no apparent reason, the roof (they took a convertible) refused to open. After informing the lessor, he promptly changed the car without requiring any additional payments I bet 5+
