Heraklion Car & Van Hire
Hiring a car at Heraklion
Crete, the largest of all of Greece's many islands, has an area of more than 8,000 square kilometres and a population of well over 600,000 residents. It's also packed with interests for visitors, including attractions ranging from the remains of the ancient Minoan civilisation to a series of spectacular beaches. Having your own personal transportation is very useful when it comes to making the most of your stay. For car rentals in Heraklion, Enterprise Rent-A-Car is ready to help with your journeys, both in the city and elsewhere on the island. The local Enterprise branch is ideally situated on Ikarou Avenue, right in the heart of Crete's largest city. It's a very short distance from Heraklion Airport, the second busiest airport in Greece, with flights from all over Europe. If you're making your own way to Enterprise, look for the junction of Ikarou Avenue and Karterou. You can also easily reach Enterprise from the city centre and the west ferry terminal. Simply head east on the seafront Nearchou Avenue dual carriageway, and then turn south on Steliou Kazantzidi Avenue. Shortly after, turn left at Ikarou Avenue and about 1 kilometre down the road, you'll find the Enterprise branch on your left. If you need any advice or assistance regarding your car hire in Heraklion, the expert staff at Enterprise will be able to help you. After you've picked up your car, you can head out and visit the beautiful Almirou Potamou-Keris National Park, just west of the city itself, or take route 97 south to explore the hilly interior of Crete.

- To be 25 years old
- A valid driving licence with a photo
- A photo ID (for example: a driving licence or passport)
- Credit or debit card (check the acceptable forms of payment at the location you're renting from)
Some locations may require additional information, including but not limited to:

Renters are advised to check whether local authorities require foreign drivers to present an International Driving Permit to avoid the risk of potential fines.

- You may refuel the vehicle to the same fuel level you received when you picked up the vehicle, or if you choose not to refuel the vehicle to the same fuel level, you will be charged the local Enterprise rate which is typically above the local pump price. An additional refuelling charge may apply at some locations.

- You may opt to pre-pay for fuel — pre-pay gives you two conveniences:

- The pre-pay fuel option is calculated at the local rate of fuel minus a per gallon discount.
Note: Pre-paid fuel is only sold in full tanks at the discounted price per gallon and is not refundable. Local fuel rates will vary by the area you are renting a vehicle.
