Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Crete car reservation?
We appreciate that having a bit of wiggle room is important. That’s why most prepaid rentals provide a full refund if you cancel a minimum of six hours ahead of the scheduled collection time. You may want to check your cancellation policy though because there are some exemptions. If the info isn’t there, click on our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Crete?
If you’d like to save on gas while navigating Crete, you can’t top a mini. These pint-sized vehicles prove bigger isn’t always better, particularly while trying to find a parking spot! Zip around the bustling city streets with ease — there’s no need to worry about your parallel parking skills. Need a car with a bit more legroom?

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Crete?
The minimum age to rent a car in Crete is 21. A surcharge for young drivers will apply, so check before you book and take into account any additional costs. There may also be restrictions on the types of vehicles that can be rented by young drivers. For example, some companies will only rent out economy to medium-sized cars to young motorists. Rules may differ between companies, so look over the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in Crete?
While terms and conditions can differ between rental car outlets in Crete, the two main things you’ll need are a current driver’s license and a credit card. You don’t need to take out auto insurance with your rental provider. However, proof of your own coverage may be required.
Can I drive in Crete with my U.S. Driver's license?
Yes, your U.S. License is enough for you to drive legally in Crete. But if you’re the type of adventurer who prefers to cover all the bases, get yourself an International Driving Permit. Apply for one in the weeks before your trip.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Crete?
Yes. Expedia partners with trusted companies that offer long-term rentals for many categories of cars. Reserve one of our long-term car rental deals and explore every inch of Crete — or far beyond!
Where can I find a Crete car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Crete outlets will rent to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won’t. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you’ll want to do your homework. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some outlets will pass on a surcharge to customers between 21 and 24. Make sure you read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
