Taking Advantage of Heraklion Airport Car Rental Services

Posted by Cretarent on February 10th, 2017

Heraklion, the capital of Crete, is also the most populous province of the island. It has one of the busiest airports in Greece since Crete is one of the most popular holiday destinations in the world. The island is blessed with pristine sand beaches on the south coast, monuments of the Minoan civilization on the north coast with plenty of other beautiful places located in remote areas.

The Heraklion airport is situated about 5 km east of the city center and people who arrive at the airport need to hire a taxi, rental car or take the bus to go to their hotels or explore Heraklion and other places around the city.

Since it is a busy airport, people need to wait in long queues to get a cab or a bus. Consequently, most people prefer to book a rental car in advance from the airport to go to their destination whether it is within the province of Heraklion or other parts of Crete. This way, they do not have to wait and can start their trip right after their arrival at the Heraklion airport. In fact, people can book a rental car in advance through online booking. This will ensure that a car is waiting for them near the arrival gate even before they set foot on the tarmac.

Heraklion airport car rental service companies provide a range of vehicles for their clients to choose from. They have compact family cars, hatchbacks, sedans, SUVs, and convertibles in addition to luxury cars to suit the needs of different customers. The companies offer these cars in manual as well as automatic transmission models.
