Self Driving in Greece is easy
Outside of Athens, Greece is an ideal country for a self driving holiday, with good roads, spectacular scenery and don’t worry about other drivers and locals, because by Mediterranean standards they are pretty reasonable.
Distances between points of interest are also very manageable by Australian standards as Greece is a relatively small country, with Aussie divers quickly adjusting to driving on the right hand side of the road.
If you know Greece well just use a map and make your own way.
Greece and Mediterranean Travel Centre has very competitive car rental rates in Greece with Hertz and the longer you rent, the lower per day costs of car rental are, but it is always wise in the peak seasons to pre book accommodation.
If you are seeking a car rental package with structure, GMTC has a 5 day Classical Self Drive program in Greece which includes 5 days unlimited kms car rental and 4 nights accommodation with breakfast.
The program takes in Corinth, Olympia, Mycenae, Delphi and Meteora to name just a few of the incredible ancient sites and the cost of this package starts at a very reasonable $467 pp share twin.
With this package you also have a structured itinerary with all hotels pre booked and guaranteed.
GMTC has an 8 day structured self drive package in Crete from $612 per person share twin which takes in most of the major sites of Crete.
When Channel 9 Getaway screened a segment in November 2006 on Metsovo in central Greece, which was hosted by GMTC it was decided to develop a package to fit in with the Getaway itinerary, with the 4 day 3 night Metsovo self drive package for Central Greece including Delphi and Meteora and prices starting at $399 pp share twin.
