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 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+

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.

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!

Jeep Renegade in Crete

In our time, without deposits and insurance for cash - the best option for Russian citizens. After the order, we signed off at Watsapp, met at the airport of Chania - an agreement with unlimited insurance, the car was replaced with a similar Renault Datsun, with a pumped engine of 150 forces, on alloy wheels, air conditioning, navigator, etc., the car is new, 2022 onwards. All right. When leaving, I left it in the parking lot near the airport, there is a free shuttle to it. Rating is excellent.

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))).
