Car Rental Mini Guide for Crete

Crete is the largest of the Greek islands. The island is so popular for holidaymakers, that in fact of all those renting a car in Greece, around 1 in 3 bookings are made for picking up in Crete itself.

The island's main airports are Nikos Kazantzakis at Heraklion, which is the capital of Crete and Chania Airport. Rhino Car Hire can set you up with a vehicle on arrival at either of these airports.

Crete is an island with a fascinating history, centering on the fabulous palace complex of the Minoan civilisation at Knossos. There are other interesting places to visit on the island including the former leper colony at Spinalonga and the deserted island of Chrysi.

Hire a car to get to these places more easily and cheaply – tour operator excursions can be expensive for families and groups.
