Car/motorbike/cycle hire
You can hire a car in several places – and again, it’s worth checking these before asking your rep – you can often get a better price - but be sure to check on the insurance cover provided.
Of course, you can also hire motor bikes, and scooters. My advice – don’t. The drivers in Greece are not good, and the roads are terrible in places. Potholes and motorcycles do not mix well! I have seen so many accidents.
The local doctor is great – but it can take a while to get an ambulance. Also, you will probably find that your travel insurance is not valid if you hire – or even ride on – a motorbike.
Cycles and mountain bikes are also available if you want to try something different.
It is easy to book a car in advance if you are travelling on a flight only basis. You can contact any of the following, and they will make sure there is a car waiting for you on arrival at either airport.
And if you come in by boat, you can arrange to pick up a car at the port.
