All rental questionsCan I find car rental in Greece from €5 per day?
€5/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.
Can I rent a car in Greece without a deposit?
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.
Can I book without a credit card?
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.
Does no deposit mean no excess?
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.
Can I pay with a debit card or cash?
Only where the selected offer allows it. Confirm the accepted method, cardholder requirements and currency for the balance and any deposit before booking.
Is an advance payment the same as a security deposit?
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.
Is full insurance included in every rental?
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.
What should I compare besides the daily rate?
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.
Who provides the rental car?
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.
Is there an extra fee for using this website?
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.
Can I collect at a Greek airport?
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.
Can a car be delivered to my hotel?
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.
Can I return the car somewhere else?
Select different pickup and return locations before comparing offers. One-way rentals depend on availability and may have a fee. Do not assume that travel between islands or cities is included.
Can I pick up after a late flight?
Enter your expected arrival time and check the supplier’s hours, out-of-hours fees and flight-delay procedure. Use the contact and instructions on your booking voucher if your plans change.
Which documents will I need?
Review the chosen supplier’s driver requirements for your age, licence issuing country and licence holding period. Check whether a passport or identity document, international driving permit or translation is required, and bring the documents requested for collection.
Is there a minimum driver age?
Age rules, licence holding periods and any young-driver supplement depend on the supplier and vehicle. Check your eligibility in the selected car’s rental conditions before paying.
Can I add another driver?
Check the additional-driver option in the offer. Each driver must satisfy the supplier’s requirements and be included in the rental agreement. A fee may apply.
Are automatic cars available?
Use the automatic-transmission filter for your destination and dates. Confirm the transmission in the selected car’s details; availability varies by location and season.
Can I book child seats?
Check the extras offered for the selected car and confirm a seat suitable for the child’s age and size. Review availability, any charge and fitting arrangements before travel.
Is unlimited mileage included?
Some offers include it and others set a limit. Read the mileage allowance and any additional-distance charge for the car you choose.
What fuel policy should I expect?
Use the policy shown in the rental conditions. Record the fuel level at collection and return the car as agreed. Ask about refuelling charges if the required level is not met.
Can I take the car on a ferry?
Get written permission from the rental company before making a ferry booking. Check whether the route is allowed and whether protection applies during transport and on the destination island.
Can I drive on unpaved roads?
Read the road-use restrictions and coverage exclusions before planning the route. A destination being popular with visitors does not mean the rental agreement permits its access road.
Can I cancel or change my booking?
The booking’s cancellation, change and refund conditions apply. Read the deadlines and charges before payment and use the support contact in your confirmation to request changes.
What should I do when collecting the car?
Check the vehicle with the supplier, record existing damage and confirm fuel, documents, return instructions and the assistance contact. Make sure any agreed extras are present before leaving.
Who do I contact during the rental?
For breakdowns, incidents or pickup problems, use the rental company’s contact and emergency instructions in your voucher or agreement. For a booking change, use the support details in the confirmation.
Can I book a car online in Greece?
Yes. Choose your dates and pickup point, compare available cars and review the complete total and conditions before confirming.
Can I book a specific model?
Check whether the offer confirms the named vehicle or permits a similar model. Review transmission, capacity and equipment in the booking details.
Why do prices change between searches?
Prices respond to your dates, rental duration, availability, collection point and selected services. A guide price is not a reservation; rely on the total shown when confirming the booking.
Can I rent for only a few days?
Enter the exact period you need. Minimum rental periods and pricing can vary by vehicle, supplier and season. Compare the full trip cost for the dates offered.
Can I rent a car in Greece with no excess?
Selected cars may offer protection with a €0 excess for covered damage. Availability and conditions depend on the car, supplier and dates. Verify the exact excess, exclusions and optional upgrade cost in the selected offer.
Does full insurance always mean zero excess?
No. A package name alone does not establish the excess amount or exclusions. Read the car’s protection terms and confirm whether the applicable excess is €0 for the events you want covered.
