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.

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.

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.

Everything was fine) Thank you for the service, even though we arrived 2 hours earlier, your manager drove the car, taking into account the early arrival. The car corresponded to its characteristics. Price = quality! I recommend your service

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.
