Further information about driving on Rhodes

Hafen in Rhodos

Pay attention to the obligation to wear a seatbelt and check before renting your car if there is a warning vest, a warning triangle, the first aid kit and a fire extinguisher in the trunk! In case of breakdowns or accidents, it is mandatory to wear the high-visibility vest. In addition, making phone calls while driving is only allowed with a wireless hands-free device via Bluetooth. The blood alcohol limit here is 0.5. To drive a car in Greece, you fortunately do not need an international driver's license, but remember to carry not only the driver's license, but also a valid passport at all times.

What car rental insurance do I need in Rhodes?

When renting a car, regardless of the country, you should always choose "fully comprehensive without excess" insurance for your own protection." You should also make sure you have a high liability coverage amount. The liability should cover at least a damage sum of one million euros, even a sum of 7.5 million would be better.

Do I have to pay a higher deposit in Rhodes?

Straße in Altstadt Rhodos

All car rental companies require a deposit, the amount of which varies from car rental company to car rental company. However, it does not depend primarily on the currency, but on the type of vehicle. If the rental car is returned without damage, the amount previously charged will be credited back to your credit card or you may choose to have your cash deposit refunded. Due to the deposit, please remember to top up your credit card with the appropriate amount early enough before your trip to Greece, as most rental companies will not provide a rental car without a deposit.

Additional driver option for the rental car

If you do not want to spend the whole time of your stay in Rhodes alone at the wheel, you can include an additional driver for the rental car at the car rental agency. Usually, a small additional fee is charged for this, a price that is often settled per rented day. However, there are also offers that include an additional driver free of charge. Here, an online comparison is worthwhile in advance. In addition, the concluded insurances are automatically transferred to the additional driver, so you do not have to take out extra insurance.

Refueling in Rhodes Town: All about fuel!

In the north of the island there are more gas stations than in the less populated south. However, one tank of gas will get you around the entire island several times, so normally you don't have to worry about being stranded. Keep in mind, however, that most gas stations are only open between 7 am and 7 pm.
