Use the method named in your booking. A card in the driver’s name may be required for the deposit.
Keep it on your phone or printed, with the supplier’s meeting instructions.

All rental questions€2/day is an indicative low-season starting rate for selected rentals in Greece, not a live quote or a rate promised for every destination. Prices depend on dates, rental length, car and availability. Check the live search for your trip total, delivery and optional extras.
Selected offers may have a zero security deposit. Use the no-deposit filter and read the car’s terms. A paid protection option may be required. A zero deposit does not automatically remove every liability or mean no advance payment.
Some rental companies accept another payment method. Use the no-credit-card filter and check the accepted method for the booking payment, the balance and any deposit. These can be different.
No. The deposit is security held during the rental. The excess is an amount you may be responsible for under the protection terms. Check both figures and any exclusions for the specific car.
Only where the selected offer allows it. Confirm the accepted method, cardholder requirements and currency for the balance and any deposit before booking.
No. An advance payment contributes towards the rental price. A security deposit is a separate amount held or collected as security. Read the payment breakdown for your booking.
No. Included protection and optional upgrades vary. Review the excess, covered events and exclusions. A description such as full coverage does not mean every incident or use of the car is covered.
Compare the total for the complete rental, deposit, excess, fuel policy, mileage, pickup and return arrangements, and any extras you need. Include delivery, one-way and out-of-hours charges where applicable.
The rental company identified in the selected offer supplies the vehicle and sets its rental conditions. RentalCarsGreece.com is an independent comparison and referral website. Review the supplier and booking-service details before payment.
We may earn a referral commission from eligible bookings. We do not add a separate website-use fee. Your selected offer shows the rental price and any services you choose.
Airport pickup is available where shown for the selected car. Choose the exact airport location and check whether collection uses a desk, meeting point, office or shuttle. A destination search alone does not confirm the handover point.
Hotel delivery depends on the supplier, car and address. Confirm that your accommodation is served, where the handover will take place and whether there is a delivery charge.
Bring your driving licence, a passport or national ID card, the payment method named in your booking and your booking voucher. The supplier may ask for more, so check your offer before you travel.
Licences issued in EU and EEA countries are accepted in Greece. Drivers with a licence from another country may need an International Driving Permit with their national licence. Check the current requirements for your licence and confirm them with the supplier.
Many suppliers set a minimum age of about 21 and require the licence to have been held for at least a year. Young-driver fees and higher age limits for some categories can apply. The offer shows the rules for each car.
Many offers include unlimited mileage, but not all of them. The allowance is shown in the offer’s conditions, so check it before choosing a car for a long trip.
Additional drivers can usually be added as an option. Each driver must meet the supplier’s requirements and be named in the rental agreement. Check any fee in the offer.
Some offers allow a different return location. Choose it when you search, because a one-way fee may apply. Check the price and opening hours at both locations.
Cancellation and change rules depend on the selected offer. Some offers include free cancellation until a set time. Check the cancellation terms in your offer and on your voucher.
