Travel Tips
A current valid driver’s license is required to rent a car in Greece and an international driving permit (IDP) is also required by law. Drivers must be over 18.

It is important to know that once outside of the cities, the roads can be quite narrow and challenging to navigate.

Parking tickets often come with the removal of license plates and can be pricey to get them back.

The various gas stations outside of the cities often do not accept credit cards.
