Car hire Santorini: What you need to know

Before you go ahead and book, there are just two things you need to know. Car hire in Santorini is not complicated, but it can be done wrong easily. Use this short guideline and you will get exactly what you want.

Choose a type

Searching by vehicle type is a direct route to a successful driving experience. In simple terms, you have a choice between:

  • Compact or Economy car
  • Standard (Best Value)
  • SUVs
  • Convertibles
  • Crossovers
  • Vans or Minivans

Upgrade a bit

Additional options are available for each vehicle listed. Although some of them are paid, their effectiveness can be extremely high:

  • Guaranteed model: No worries about getting less than you wanted.
  • Child seat: There can be up to four types of restraints to choose from.
  • Transmission: Most tourists prefer a manual gearbox for cheap car rentals in Santorini, but an automatic is way more practical.
  • Free cancellation: The application can be closed with a refund.
  • Unlimited mileage: Perhaps not the most useful addition on such a tiny island.
  • Additional insurance: You will be much calmer and more confident with Full Coverage or Super CDW.
  • No deposit: This one means no deposit blocking on credit cards.
  • SIM card: Stop expensive roaming with a local operator at a good price.
  • Additional driver: Anyone over 21 can also be on the rental agreement with you.

Car rental Santorini at the lowest price

The colourful European islands seem like places where you need a credit card. However, car rental in Santorini may surprise budget travellers, because the prices here can be incredibly low. $20, $15 or even less.

The daily rental price depends on:

  • How many days have you reserved
  • Having an early (5-8 days at least) reservation
  • Choosing the right type of vehicle
  • The operator’s workload and the number of available positions.

Want to take it lower? Then aim for a long-term car rental, avoiding major holidays. And of course, compare the price:

  1. Parking in the wrong place. Look for white lines or a P-sign to avoid a ticket.
  2. Speeding: 50-90-110 km/h is your limit.
  3. Using a smartphone (and other devices) while driving.
  4. Drunk driving: Only 0.02% for beginners, and 0.05% for experienced drivers.

The best advice you can get is to plan your trips and be calm.
