Yes, renting a car in Greece is highly recommended. While cities like Athens and Thessaloniki have efficient public transportation, much of Greece's beauty lies outside these urban centers. A rented car offers you the convenience of visiting smaller villages, exploring lesser-known archaeological sites, and accessing remote beaches with ease. On the islands, public transport can be limited, making a car essential for thorough exploration. With a car, you also have the flexibility to set your own schedule, avoid waiting times, and cover more ground effectively. It's a practical choice if you want to make the most of your trip to Greece.
Driving in Greece presents an opportunity to experience the nation's varied landscapes, from coastal roads to historic city streets. The country's road infrastructure is commendable, with roads being generally well-maintained and signposts clear, often provided in both Greek and English. In bustling cities like Athens and Thessaloniki, it's not uncommon to encounter traffic congestion during peak hours, requiring some patience while driving. Beyond the cities, you'll discover charming villages with olive groves, and hidden gems that only become accessible with a car. The mountainous terrains, particularly in regions like the Peloponnese or Epirus, provide captivating views but can also challenge drivers with winding roads. Overall, with a bit of preparation and an understanding of local driving nuances, touring Greece by car will become an enriching experience.
The basic requirement to rent a car in Greece is you must be at least 21 years old. However, this age stipulation can differ among rental companies, and certain premium or larger vehicles might have a higher age minimum. Additionally, drivers aged between 21 and 25 are sometimes subject to young driver surcharges, which can vary in amount depending on the rental agency. While your primary driving license is essential, it's important to investigate whether the rental agency mandates an international driving permit, especially for those coming from outside the European Union. Some companies might also ask for a credit card to secure a deposit before handing over the vehicle. Always remember to read through and understand the insurance policies offered. While some might come as standard, others might be optional add-ons that can provide extra peace of mind.
