Heraklion is where most Crete holidays begin: the airport, the port, the museum and the road to Knossos are all within a few kilometres of each other. It is also the easiest place in Crete to pick up a rental car - as long as you are not queueing at a chain desk with a card deposit hanging over you.
MyCrete delivers your car anywhere in the Heraklion area free of charge - hotel, apartment, port or airport - with insurance already in the price and no credit-card block.
The city centre is dense, one-way and best left on foot - park in one of the paid car parks near the old harbour or on the ring road and walk in. Outside the centre the E75 national road runs east and west and makes day trips easy: Knossos is 10 minutes away, Hersonissos 25, Agios Nikolaos an hour, Rethymno an hour and fifteen. Fuel stations along the E75 are plentiful; in the mountain villages south of the city they are not, so fill up before you climb.
Every MyCrete car comes with FCDW full insurance plus WUG cover - tyres, the car's underside, glass and mirrors - at €0 excess. There is no upsell at handover, because there is no better package to sell you. We send the fuel policy, driver age rule and the full terms in writing before you confirm anything. An EU driving licence is enough. Insurance is void off-road, including the gravel track to Balos.
Answer a few quick questions. We will personally check actual availability and send you the final all-inclusive total price. Sending an enquiry does not create a booking or payment obligation.
