Six weekly prices for cars collected and returned at the airport. Any airport charge is already counted, and the deposit sits under each car.

Comparing islands and the mainland? Car hire across Greece starts from several airports and towns.
A local company, at the meeting point printed on your voucher with its phone number. The rental desks in the terminal are not part of a booking made here.
Check the voucher for where to meet and the company’s phone number. Screenshot it before the flight in case of weak signal.
Keep the phone number you booked with reachable from the day before pickup, with the country code, by call or messaging app.
Go round the bodywork with the company rep and have every scratch written down. Check the fuel level against the record too.
Some cars here add a small charge for the airport handover. It is already part of the total, so compare totals rather than daily rates.
Terminal services at Diagoras, its two car parks, and some island road habits to expect.
The open-air car park is a few steps from the Departures and Arrivals terminals and runs 24/7, with barriers at entry and exit.
Long Term lies a short distance away and takes card payments only.
Not on every car. Some take no credit card, and some hold no deposit at all.
Cars marked credit card needed want the main driver’s own embossed card, shown in person. A debit card is fine only when the listing says it is.
Other ways to pay are covered under cars in Greece that need no credit card.
To avoid a hold altogether, try car hire in Greece with no deposit.
Greek national rules cover the island roads. Keep these in mind from the moment you leave the airport.
Rhodes Town and the villages are 30 km/h, some multi-lane town roads 50 km/h, and the open island roads 90 km/h unless posted otherwise.
Everyone wears a belt and children ride in a suitable seat. An unbelted passenger means a fine for the driver too.
The limit is 0.5 mg/ml, falling to 0.2 mg/ml for novice drivers. The safest choice is not to drink at all before driving.
Ring the company first and ask the police for a report unless the company waives it. Without both, you may carry the full cost.
Look for the triangle, the first-aid kit and the extinguisher that Greek law asks every car to carry.
Use 112 for emergencies. Fuel, parking and any fines are the renter’s to pay.
Lindos is about 1 h 15 min away by car and Rhodes Old Town about 20 minutes, on clear roads with no stops.
Faliraki and Ancient Kamiros are each about 25 minutes from the airport, Tsambika beach about 45 minutes and Monolithos castle about 1 h 15 min. The Old Town time ends at the Palace of the Grand Master.
Not driving on day one? Car hire on Rhodes can start on the day you first need the car.
Rental cars on Rhodes may use paved public roads only, so leave gravel tracks to remote beaches alone.
The rental conditions apply that rule across Greece, with no list of named roads.
Turkey is out of bounds: no car rented in Greece may cross a national border.
That rule applies to every car booked in Greece, whatever the cover or the company.
Only if customer support agrees before you complete the booking. Returns on the mainland are not offered on these cars.
Plan every day out to end back on Rhodes, with the car returned at the airport where the hire began.
Write to customer support before you complete the booking. Without a yes, the car stays on the island.
Tickets and timetables are not part of the rental, so book them with the shipping line once support agrees.
The lowest daily price for a week’s hire, collected and returned at the airport, month by month. Use it to compare, not as a quote.
N/A: no Rhodes Airport cars are listed yet for that month.
Rental is charged per 24 hours. Returning a few hours late means paying another full day, so tell the company early if you want to extend.
Set up the booking for everyone who will ride or drive. Seats and extras should be confirmed before arrival.
Name every driver on the booking. Each one must meet the minimum age and licence years for that particular car.
Book a seat or booster for each child with the car, matched to their age and size.
Vehicles here seat up to 9. Check that bags still fit when every seat is taken.
A small pet is welcome when it travels shut in a carrier the whole time.
Basic and the higher levels exclude certain parts of the car. Cover also starts at different levels on different cars.
Basic with no excess. Some no-deposit cars start on Basic (CDW) with no excess shown, though the usual exclusions still apply.
Deposit equal to the excess. Some cars that need a credit card start on Basic, with the deposit set at the same figure as the excess.
Minimum as the only level. Some cars offer only Minimum (TPL), which does not pay for damage to the rental car itself.
Damage to wheels, the undercarriage, the windscreen or the interior falls outside standard insurance. The level you choose sets the car hire excess you would face.
Deliberate damage or neglect makes any cover invalid.
Only the original licence works, and it must run past your return date; copies or digital versions will not do.
Bring an IDP as well as your licence. It is recommended, and a company may turn you down without it.
Minimum age and licence years are shown on each car and can vary between similar models.
UK drivers can use a photocard licence in Greece, though the company may still ask for an IDP. Check the car’s own conditions.
Leave a little time for fuel and the final check before check-in.
Parking, tolls and traffic fines from the trip remain your responsibility after the return.
A change of car or dates means cancelling and booking again.
Ordinary cars: at least seven days before pickup. Luxury cars and convertibles: thirty. With the 24-hour cancellation option added, up to a day before.
Quote your voucher in the request. The advance is repaid inside two weeks, keeping back a 6% payment service fee; a missed pickup forfeits it.
Some companies charge for handing a car over at the airport. The charge is inside the total, so compare totals, not daily rates.
Yes, automatic cars are offered as well as manuals. Check the gearbox on the car you pick rather than the photo.
Not so far: no car was offered at the port, and these cars start and end at the airport. The port is about 25 minutes away by car.
No: none of the cars offered here carried one. The offer for your own dates states the rule for your car.
Not always. Each car shows how the deposit is taken and how the balance is paid, and some hold no deposit.
Add your flight times and compare each car’s total, deposit, cover and any airport charge in one list.
