Airport Car Rental
The capital of not just Greece, but, in some sense, Western civilization as a whole, Athens is as historic a destination as they come. From ancient landmarks to medieval gems and the modern art scene, the city has something for every visitor to enjoy. These are three of the city’s most notable landmarks:
- The Acropolis. The heart of old Athens, the Acropolis is naturally the most visited place in the city. In addition to landmarks like Parthenon, many notable sites are also located around the Acropolis and can be conveniently visited during the same visit. Depending on the traffic, a car trip from the city center to Acropolis takes anywhere between 15 and 30 minutes.
- The Museum of Ancient Greek Technology. As could be expected, Athens is home to a number of museums dedicated to the ancient Hellenic world. While not as large and immediately impressive as some others, this little cultural institution dedicated to the inventive genius of the ancient inhabitants of the area is one of the most interesting. Divided into three sections, the museum explores Ancient Greek technology, as well as the unusual musical instruments that were popular at the time.
- Kaisariani Monastery. Another historically important place, but dating to significantly more recent times, this monastery was built at the turn of the 11th and 12th centuries when the area was ruled by the Byzantines. Despite being more than 900 years old, it continues to perform its original function and is open for worshippers and visitors alike. The monastery is located in a beautiful place on the foothills of Mount Hymettus, and is surrounded by a vast green area that is a popular destination for walks. The drive from the city center takes 30 to 40 minutes.

FAQ
Are there any charges for collecting a car at midnight or outside of business hours?
Yes, most of the companies charge an out of hours fee for picking up or dropping off the car outside of their normal business hours. This fee varies from 30-50 EUR. When choosing a vehicle on our website, make sure to adjust the correct times and any out of hours fee will be automatically added to the total price.
Is it possible to have the car delivered to our hotel?
Yes, it is possible to have a rental car delivered to your hotel in Athens. Some car rental companies provide hotel delivery if it is within a 30 kilometer of the car rental office. You will likely be cha
Does Full Coverage waive or reduce the deposit?
Full Coverage is provided by DiscoverCars.com. The full deposit will still need to be made when picking up the vehicle.
Can I take the car on a ferry?
Yes, most, but certainly not all, rental companies allow their cars to be taken on ferries. However, you must receive permission ahead of time and will likely be charged an extra fee. Be absolutely sure the rental company allows this in order to avoid potentially large charges.
Do I need an International Driving Permit in Greece?
If you driver's license was issued in the European Union, you do not need an IDP. If your driver's license was issued in another country, you must have an IDP in addition to your license.
How old do I have to be to rent a car at Athens Airport?
Most companies require drivers to be at least 21 years old. Centauro, though, will rent to drivers that are at least 19. Keep in mind that almost all companies charge an additional fee for drivers under 25.

Travellers should visit Acropolis and the new history museum before climbing up to Acropolis. Also the Niarchos national gallery next to Hilton Hotel. Finally walk from Syntagma square to Ermou Street, see the Monastiraki fleet market and proceed to Psyri area and sit in one of its beautiful Cafes. For food return back to Monastiraki area and sit in one of the many restaurants serving kebabs and souvlaki preceded by Greek salad with fetta and olives and of course tomatoes and cucambers and with Greek with extra virgin oil for dressing. Plaka area is also very interesting.

Had a great trip to Greece where I was doing a half Ironman on the Costa Navarino. Hiring a car was perfect as I had lots of stuff including a big bike box, and it gave me flexibility and independence. Greek people are just so friendly, from hotel staff to local restaurants. I will definitely be doing a more substantial trip there in the not too distant future.
