Car Hire Crete
Rumoured to be the birthplace of Zeus himself, Crete is the largest and most populous island in the Greek archipelago. Crete truly has something to offer everyone – boasting one of the richest histories out there, from the ancient Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations to its Byzantine, Venetian and Ottoman rule all having a profound impact on the culture and architecture across the island. And if that doesn’t float your boat, it’s hard to argue with it’s stunning sandy beaches and relaxing Mediterranean climate!
Where Can I Collect From?
We have pickups located conveniently across the island, so there’s never a branch far from you. This does of course include the main international airports at Chania and Heraklion too. Here are our most popular branches below:
| Agios Nikolaos | Chania Airport | Chania Souda Port |
| Heraklion Airport | Heraklion Port | Rethimno |
This isn’t exhaustive either so by all means contact us if you need to hire in a different locations – there’s still a good chance we’ve got you covered!
Debit Card Car Hire
Need to hire a car but you don’t have a credit card in your name? No problem! At Indigo we have plenty of options allowing you to hire with just a debit card, as long as it’s a standard Visa or MasterCard debit card from one of the major banks. Just contact us directly and we can provide a quote to suit your needs.
Young Driver Car Hire
We can arrange rentals for drivers as young as 18 in Crete! You do need to have held a licence for at least a year, but as long as that’s the case then we will have an option for you. There may be young driver surcharges depending on the option, but they are very low in general in Greece.
Senior Driver Car Hire
It can be quite difficult to find car hire in Crete once you hit the age of 75, with a lot of companies having frustrating insurance restrictions. At Indigo we can help with no maximum age restrictions whatsoever, and with no extra charges too, so you won’t be paying an arm and a leg for such a simple requirement!
Low Deposit Car Hire
The last thing you want to have on holiday is a huge amount blocked on your card for the hire! With some companies requiring deposit of 1000 EUR +, that money is much better spent on your travels! At Indigo we have a wide array of low deposit options, ranging from just 50 EUR being blocked on your card instead.
