In Heraklion, we offer vehicles at 3 different rental locations (see the links below). Normally, the best SUV rental offers in Greece are provided by offices located in airports and train stations.

We recommend the following principle for selection of an off-road model for trips in Greece: if your planned routes are mainly within a city borders – a small crossover, while if the routes go through countryside or mountain regions – a large and powerful off-road 4x4 car.

Heraklion, Greece: SUV and Offroad Rental Tips
The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Heraklion are: BMW X3, Toyota Rav4, Kia Sportage, Suzuki Jimny, Toyota Landcruiser, Hyundai Tuscon and others.

While selecting your preferred model of an off-road vehicle, please examine the rental conditions. In particular, those requirements that concern credit cards – when it comes to renting an expensive car, sometimes offices in Greece ask information about two credit cards.

Before signing the contract in the rental office upon arrival, check that the invoice figures match with figures in your voucher.

Once the vehicle is assigned, inspect it carefully before leaving the parking. Crossovers and SUVs are often used in tough road conditions, therefore scratches and other exteriour defects are inevitable. Due to this, it is important to check and specify all existing defects in your rental documents.

If you plan to use an off-road vehicle in the mountains, it is recommended to order snow chains. This will save you from unexpected incidents. Other important equipment in Greece are mandatory child seats for travellers with children. OrangeSmile.com wishes you a safe trip and green lights on the roads of Heraklion!

Driving Advices for Greece – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities
Previous hints
In many large cities, drivers can feel the lack of usual road signs. Such signs as “give way” and “the main road” are quite rare, and this fact also complicates the orientation while driving. When approaching a crossroads, drivers should always slow down, regardless of the fact whether there is a road sign near the crossroads or not.
Crossroads equipped with traffic lights are another place, where drivers should be really careful. Do not start moving immediately after the green light appears. Local drivers have one really bad habit – they enjoy “slipping” at a crossroads when the traffic light has just switched to red.
Parking space should be selected with caution. Drivers should also take into account that parking is prohibited in the central part of some large cities.
