Find cheap rental cars at the Port, airport, and Fira!
Santorini is an amazing, world-renowned island! Because of this, especially during the summer months, it literally “sinks” under the weight of visitors and tourists.
Rental cars are not enough to cover the high demand, and it’s not uncommon for all cars from all companies to be rented out!
If you want to rent a car in Santorini for your summer holidays, it would be advisable to do so well in advance, and in any case, make an online booking to ensure you have a car waiting for you upon arrival on the island!
Here at Travelo, we offer car hire options at 4 different pickup points with the best prices and deals!
Car hire Santorini port
If you are arriving on the island by ferry, then you can choose to pick up your car from Athinios port.
This way, as soon as you disembark from the ferry, you can get straight into your waiting rental car!
There is no extra charge for port pickup, you simply select it during your online booking.
Don't forget that when a ferry arrives at the port, traffic and crowds can become overwhelming – you need to be extra careful when driving and, of course, have a reservation in advance.
[ Book a car for Santorini without a credit card here! ]
Car hire Santorini airport
If you have booked flights to Santorini and are arriving at JTR State Airport, you will find the rental offices immediately after exiting the arrivals hall.
If you haven't booked a car in advance, don't bother looking during the summer – it's 100% certain you won't find a car available in the small to medium category, unless there's a cancellation.
Instead of dealing with hassle and stress, book early, and you'll have your rental car waiting for you at Santorini airport as soon as you land!
Car hire Santorini Fira
Your last option for picking up your car is in Fira, in the centre of the island.
If for any reason you want to pick up your vehicle from there, you can select it in your online search.
Also, if it suits you, you can pick up your vehicle from one location and drop it off at a different one!
If you arrive by plane and depart by ferry, you can pick up from the airport and leave it at the port!
Car hire without a credit card in Santorini
Through Travelo and our partners, you have the option to hire a car in Santorini without a credit card and without a deposit – just with cash!
This gives you great flexibility for your trip, as firstly, if you don't have a credit card, you can still rent a vehicle, and secondly, if you do have one, you don't need to tie it up with a large deposit!
The car hire options we offer include full comprehensive insurance, unlimited kilometres, and payment only in cash!
