Car rental requirements in Crete?
Sahello · 2026-04-07
Hi there!
We’re heading to Crete (Heraklion) as a couple and I’d like to rent a car.
1) Do we need an international driver’s permit?
2) Are rentals super expensive?
Thanks everyone!

Hi
No international driver’s permit needed—Crete’s in Europe.
Depending on the season, rentals can be really cheap.
I rented a Corsa at the airport in May 2024 (not the newest, but it did the job) for 20 €/day.
Do some research on book***
