How old do you have to be to rent a car in Heraklion?
You need to be at least 21 to slide behind the wheel of a rental car in Heraklion. Keep in mind that young drivers may only be able to rent from a few car classes, such as compact and medium size.

Read through the rules carefully before clicking the book button and factor any extra fees into your holiday budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Heraklion?
Before you can take the wheel in Heraklion, you'll need a driver's licence and a credit card that matches the name on your licence. If you don't take out the company's insurance policy, you may also have to provide proof of alternative coverage. Requirements may vary, so read the policy terms and conditions before you choose a rental provider.
What side of the road do you drive on in Heraklion?
Like the States, stick to the right in Greece. However, that doesn't mean the road rules are the same as at home. Familiarise yourself with the traffic laws before you hit the road in Heraklion.

Where can I find a Heraklion car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental suppliers, so you'll have to do a bit of homework. Found a Heraklion outlet that does rent to under 25s? Terrific news!
