" 5-Star Review for Auto Europe Car Hire Auto Europe made my car rental experience smooth, affordable, and completely hassle-free. From start to finish, everything was handled with professionalism and efficiency. The booking process online was straightforward, with clear information about pricing, insurance options, and vehicle choices. What I appreciated most was the transparency--no hidden charges, just exactly what was promised. Upon arrival, picking up the car was quick and easy. The local partner was friendly, helpful, and made sure I understood everything before handing over the keys. The vehicle provided was clean, modern, and in perfect condition--ideal for navigating both city streets and open roads. Customer support was also top-notch. I had a quick question during my rental period, and the team responded promptly and politely, offering helpful advice without any runaround. Auto Europe offers great value and peace of mind. I'll definitely be booking with them again on future trips. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable, stress-free car hire experience. "
" 5-Star Review for Green Motion Car Hire – Crete I had an excellent experience with Green Motion Car Hire in Crete and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable rental service on the island. From the moment we arrived, the staff was friendly, professional, and efficient. The booking process was smooth, and all the paperwork was clearly explained. We were on the road within minutes! The car itself was clean, modern, and in great condition – perfect for exploring the beautiful roads of Crete. It was fuel-efficient and comfortable, making our journeys across the island even more enjoyable. One thing that stood out was the transparency and honesty of the service. There were no hidden fees, and the team was upfront about insurance and fuel policies. Returning the car was just as easy and hassle-free. Overall, Green Motion made our trip stress-free and enjoyable. Great value for money, outstanding service, and a team that genuinely cares about your experience. Highly recommended – I'll definitely be using them again next time I'm in Crete! "

" Always like auto Europe as it provides more security on unexpected 'excess' costs by providing extra insurance. "
" This company has excellent prices as they use slightly older cars, but this is an acceptable compromise given the value for money you get with this company. Very happy with car, but have marked down slightly on recommendation as the 'regular' pick-up bus from the airport did not happen and we had to find our way to the car hire place from the airport "

" Counter staff were friendly and professional, both pickup and dropoff were efficient and easy. The car had done 100,000 km so was a little tired but did the job. It struggled badly uphill but never having driven a Toyota Aygo before I wasn't sure if that was a general issue with them or if this one had a problem. "

" We were expecting a fiat 500. We got an old Nissan micra with air conditioning that barely worked and sometimes not at all. A warning light that was constantly on. My friend got tricked into paying extra insurance. Would not recommend this company, absolutely appalling. "

" The drop off was quite ok. The lady was supportive, and everything went quite smooth and fast. I asked her to give me a written proof that the 800EUR deposit was unlocked but she told me it will take few days. Until now, I did not receive any proof that the deposit was unlocked. I have a copy of the contract which confirms that there were no damages to the car. I also have a copy of the EUR 110 receipt from Monza and would like to get my refund. "
" My flight was schedule to land at 0:25 am on 28 June. The scheduled pick-up time was 0:30 am. The flight was delayed at the last moment, and it landed around 2:30 am. The mai reason why I picked Royal Rent was because they were advertised as open 24/7. When I arrived there, the office was closed, and nobody was answering the phone. I have little children (aged 10 and 8 respectively) so I was standing with my whole family in front of their office unable to reach them. I tried to call Auto Europe on the emergency number to explain my situation and get support. The lady who answered the phone refused to listen to me and told me that, unless I had an accident, she will not help me. I could barely understand her speaking English. I had to rent a car for that night from another company nearby (Monza) which was indeed opened 24/7. Next morning, I returned the Monza-rented car and pick-up the car from Royal Rent. I presented to the gentleman at the counter the invoice from Monza (110 euro) asking for a refund and he categorically denied. He accused me that I did not inform him about the delay. When I booked the car, I have indicated the flight number so he could very easily check the status of the flight. He told me that he has a family and cannot stay late at night despite the fact that the office was advertised as permanently opened. "

" We picked up our Citroen DS3 on Tuesday 17th June at Chania airport. This was a quick and efficient process. On the third day of our holiday the car failed to start. After several attempts, the engine eventually engaged. The same thing happened the following day but this was at a fairly remote spot and in the evening. This was very disturbing and we called the emergency contact line but after a brief conversation with someone who had very poor English, he hung up. We tried again the following day, in office hours. After the third attempt, we were able to speak to someone who agreed to send out a mechanic. This was quite efficient and mechanic arrived on motor bike within the hour. He advised that we needed a replacement vehicle. This was relayed back to the Budget desk at the airport . The person that we spoke to was very unhelpful and very rude. Despite the help of the mechanic, who was still with us, he insisted that we should drive the car back to the airport, which was approximately an hour away, and let them decide whether we should be given another car. Eventually, having remonstrated with the employee, he hung up on us. The mechanic called back for us and it was eventually agreed that the car would be collected by low loader and that a taxi would be sent for me to go to the airport to collect another car. This took up most of a valuable day of our holiday. The car was replaced be a higher grade car and we experienced no further problems with it. Not only did we lose a day of our holiday but it was, overall, a very stressful experience. Our Villa was quite remote on the edge of a village and we were completely dependent on transport for supplies. At one point when heading out to a restaurant in the evening, we thought that we would be without food as the car failed to start. When it did eventually start,we had the worry of being stranded and not able to get home. This would not have been such an issue for us if we had experienced a better response from Budget but we found their attitude to be completely unacceptable. "

" To whom it may concern, I would like to make a formal complaint about the treatment and service we received on our recent trip to Greece. Car collected on the 23rd May 2025. I booked my car on January 13th 2025, my car wiz booking reference was #25-06-168. On arrival at the Carwiz office at Chania, it was a long process. After a 30 minute wait for my car, I was taken to a car that was smaller than what I had paid for. The car I was given, a Citreon C3, was highly damaged (photos attached) and not what I was expecting. I was travelling with friends and they had paid for a smaller car and they received a newer version of the same car as me. After talking to my wife, I queried the car I received. I was told by the manager of the office that the car I was given, the Citreon C3, was not the car I had reserved and not the size reserved. I queried why if this was the case that I was given this car. No reason was given. I asked for an alternative car, and was reluctantly given an alternative, also in poor condition. It was made clear that this was my only choice. It is disappointing to say the least, as my previous experience was very positive and why I chose to use Carwiz again. How is it possible that the incorrect car was provided when it was booked in January for a May collection? How can you as a company provide cars that are in such poor condition? Why was I knowingly given a car that was not the correct one? I would like to request a refund of the full costs for this rental, as it was a situation where the correct rental car was not provided. I look forward to hearing from you. "

" First time I've used Carwiz. Booked a compact car for 8 days, they gave my a 5 door Corsa with approx 74000 kms on the clock. I had no problems at all with the car. The car had a few scratches and dents on the body and wheel hubs but we photographed every panel and the wheel hubs. We bought our own excess insurance in the UK ( Its a lot cheaper) and Carwiz withheld 500 euros on my credit card to cover part of the excess which I expected. The tank was 3/4 full ( again we took a photo) and we returned it 3/4 full. Carwiz took 5 minutes to check the car and released the 500 euros. Would I book with Carwiz in Chania Crete again, Yes. Follow the rules and you should be ok. "

" I rented an economy small car (Fiat Panda) to do my job in the town. However, they gave me another car from the 'S' category (Nissan Juke) without any prior warning. It was night time, and there was not enough light to inspect the car that I did not want to rent. The policy of Centauro is very strict and unacceptable regarding charges. The only pleasant aspect of this unpleasant experience was the extremely polite employee. However, this is not enough to change my opinion : I do not want to rent from them again! "

Tried to sell me an enhanced recovery advising they would otherwise take up to 72 hours to come out to any breakdown. Refused this and advised I would leave the car where it was in this case. Checks for the handover were very odd . Car was not in good shape with high miles stained seats and quite a few scrapes . Agent seemed to place a heavy focus on damage to vehicle and there said there were restrictions where car could be used, Office was plastered with signs about number of bags allowed and £150 fee if car was returned dirty with beach sand in it. Seems excessive charge for hoovering. Returned the car as received , same agent proceeded to examine tires underneath of car and bodywork. Then announced I would have to pay for damage to front bumper. After a big argument and speaking to the manger they agreed there was in fact no visible damage to the front of the car. This is awful practice . They seemed to think this was fine as i had excess insurance . Overall bad stressful experience. I do not think you should offer cars from Abby Car "

The response from the roadside assistance team was excellent. The problem was that the air conditioning unit was leaking water due to condensation and it was resolved over the phone without the need for a call out. Abbey Car, however, requested €40 on arrival at the desk to guarantee roadside assistance within 3 hours. Otherwise, they explained, it could be a 24 hour wait for assistance. This wasn't clear when booking and actually meant the car wasn't as competitively priced as other companies and not the great value I thought it was. I felt conned at the desk and paid the €40. Although Abbey Care were overall v good, because of this issue, I will probably not book with Abbey Car again. "

" Car was an old Fiat Panda, not remotely similar to a Toyota Aygo which is a fairly new model. The Fiat Panda had lots of small scratches and dents, so checking all of these on collection was practically impossible. Car supplied had 3/4 of fuel and EXER said return with 3/4 fuel. It was supposed to be Full to Full. How do you fill a fuel tank to only 3/4? "

" We were very disappointed to arrive and be told that the hybrid car we booked was not available (despite booking in advance) and we got a 'free upgrade to a Citron C3 - which was not a free upgrade as I paid £30 extra in the first place to get a Hybrid car to save on petrol. So the 'free' upgrade that we did not want cost us £30. The manager Theodore would not accept our point of view on this and was very forceful in the delivery telling us with a smirk 'I will just cancel the booking and you can go somewhere else' like that was a great option when we had just walked from the airport (no transfer, we had to walk in 35 degrees heat with our suitcases) and then he wanted us to trawl round for another rental car which he knew full well we wouldn't get for the same price. He accused a member of our party of swearing when the words were "you don't like the FACT we don't agree with you" this was a very cheap accusation to make and he only admitted fault in making the accusation because our whole party had heard what was said. No aggression was used, he just did not like a woman telling him in a stern manner that we were not happy. It was a nightmare. He finally agreed to give us 2 bars of petrol and promised to ring us the next day to let us know if the hybrid car came back and was available, he didn't bother ringing us. The only good part was dropping the car back off when Theodore wasn't there and the nice pleasant woman was there and we had an easy time handing it back and getting our £290 deposit refunded. "

Also, option 2 meant if the car broke down or was in an accident and no longer fir for the road they would not provide a replacement.

I wouldn't have booked with them had I known. New member of staff, while very nice, had to check multiple times with colleague meaning almost 30 minutes pick up time. On return accused of being 1.5 hours late, even though I wasn't. Was asked to provide rental agreement not booking. I had photo of it. After some discussion he had the rental agreement of a different customer. When returning the car the staff member used his hand to check for scrapes on the underside of the front. Without a ramp when I collected the car I have no idea how i could have checked this area. It was ok but illustrated to me how they seemed to operate. The car had lots of marks on it meaning checking the car when picking up took too long. All the money others have no doubt been charged clearly hadn't been used to fix the car up. I had to state multiple times I didn't want extra insurance. "

" According to the current guidance on Gov.UK a UK drivers licence is all that is required to drive in Greece. An IDP is not required. Nowhere in your voucher notes did it say a paper licence was any different to a photo card licence. Nearly all the hire companies in Crete will only accept photo card licences. There was one company that would hire a car to me using just my paper licence but at four times the cost of the car I had booked through you. "

The gear box missed gears, the engine was pathetically under powered and keyless entry did not work. It barely made it up the steep roads.

" Very frustrating and disappointing pick up process. Long wait and que to access check in/pickup (over 30 mins). On pick up for getting all the paperwork done felt like a very obstructive member of staff, when trying to explain that the original credit card had been lost it lead to a very repetitive conversation which I was having to offer all the options solutions and just being asked for the lost credit card which i explained was impossible. Then they refused to take payment with a debit card with my name on, refused to take a credit card with anothers name on despite being part of the booking party, refused to then accept adding the second person as a named driver despite being willing to pay and use the credit car with their name on then. Eventually leading full circle to my original offer of paying with a debit card with my name on. Then on checking of car there was a significant chip and damage to the windowscreen, on asking if this was road legal we were dismissed and when asking if another similar car was available(of which there was >10 cars in the yard which i appreciate may have been booked ) we were immediately dismissed out of hand. Then for the damage check we had to insist on a new form as the carwiz provider immediately signed with no inspection of the car despite the above windowscreen damage and multiple scratches and dents to the car and wheels, I had the feeling we had no just been perceived as difficult and obstructive despite this being well within our rights and the whole point of the process. To top it off the car was parked in the corner between two other cars at right angles needing the wing-mirrors to be pushed in to even get out of the space. Would certainly avoid in future and will not be recommending friends/family based of this awful experience. "

" There were some aspects of the hire that I was not happy with. Firstly, the pick up point is about 400 yards from the airport terminal and this can be tiring in the Cretan sun. Secondly, the fuel policy is meant to be full to full but my hire car was only half full; it is very difficult to gauge exactly the right amount to fill up when returning the car so that you are not either penalised for underfilling or giving the hire company free fuel.

" We rented a car from this firm and were concerned at the hard-sell tactics used to persuade us that we need to take out their premium extra cover even though we had a separate cdw policy. We are experienced renters and always use a separate cdw policy, but we were almost taken in by hard sell tactics which claimed that "lost hire costs" (ie the hire income the firm would have earned if our car was off the road as a result of needing repair) would not be covered by our separate cdw, and was never included in these policies. A very nice smooth talking young man almost persuaded us to pay as much as the two weeks basic rental (£300) for extra cover. When we checked later with our insurance they confirmed that these costs were indeed covered by our separate cdw, as is standard in most such policies. We did not appreciate being hard sold extra charges on the basis of basically false information "

However, I have to say that, a part from that, all the staff has been very nice and helpful.

Then it turned out the didn't have a mount for the GPS and we ended up having to cancel that and refund the payment from 10 mins before. Also, the office was closed when returning the car..... just after midday. I and another Customer had to leave the cars without a proper check-in and post the keys in a drop box. I did take multiple photos of the car as I returned it...... in the same condition as at pick-up.

" See comments in question 3 "
" 1 - I don't understand why - when i have already provided everything online - it takes soooo long to 'check in' and actually get the car. Had to provide all the details again, then sign multiple forms, and wait ages while the guy tapped away on a computer. In the 21st century things like this should be quick and easy 2 - The guy at Global tried to sell me an upgraded car. I declined, but got the upgraded car anyway. That's great and all, but in retrospect it looked very much like i was being 'shaken down' to pay for something i was going to get all along anyway 3 - the guy at Global tried to sell me extra insurance. I showed him that i already had it, but he tried the hard sell telling me that 'the slightest scratch will cost between 300-700 euros'. I didn't take it out. In any case, the car was absolutely covered with scratches already ! 4 - As we drove away we could see that the tyre pressure warning light was on, so we had to turn around within 100m of the Global office, wait another 20mins while the guy sorted out another customer, before being told that the tyre pressures were ok and the light had simply not been reset 5 - The guy at Global tried to charge me 25 euros because we were at the office after 9pm. I offered him 25 euros in coins (which he didn't seem impressed with), i complained about the payment and he cancelled it eventually, mumbling something about 'should have already gone home an hour ago'. Not my problem ! The whole pick-u experience was pretty exhausting, after having been on the go for almost 12 hours, not what you want when it's 9:30pm and you just want to get to your hotel. On the flip-side, price was great, and dropping off was a breeze. "

" Booked the car for the 21.00 slot. The pick up desk is not where specified - it is not where the other arrival Hall rental desks are it is approx 150m away outside and not easy to find. I arrived at approx 21.15(next bookable slot was 21.30). I was told i was late (any time after 21.00!) and owed a late pick up fee off €25. This wasn't made clear before I booked. The fuel was not full to full as advertised - it was 5/6 full and I was told to bring back the same. I protested as I find this super annoying (the car was 6/6 when returned it). I was told nothing could be done. The clutch travel on the car was also ridiculous (the clutch was virtually the whole way out at the biting point) but I had little alternative. It was a cheap hire but I did expect a desk inside the terminal, a F2F fuel policy and a car that was reasonable to drive. I also didn't expect to pay €25 for being on time. "

Luckily I took photos of the car when we took it and just as well because he was even questioning bits that were marked on his paper. He pointed at bits and said "do you have photo of that?" and I did ask "why am I doing your job for you?". I think that they should take photos when you hire it and not hope that you don't so they can clobber you for damage that was already there. The fact that there is already damage also suggests that someone will have been charged for it - but it hasn't been repaired. So a nice little extra earner. Get it all fixed (perhaps) at the end of a seasons having charged for 3 different repairs, "

Car was issued 3/4 of fuel, and I had to return the same which I did, however I was under the impression this company's stated fuel policy is full to full (which I prefer).

" Be very wary if the Auto Europe supplier bis Goldcar.See my earlier comments. "
" Having arrived at the airport there was no one to meet us from Goldcar who are off site approx a 1 1/2 miles away. I tried calling but no one would answer the phone.Eventually a member of staff at the airport car park managed to get through to them.It was 30 minutes later that we were picked up- not ideal given the heat of the sun at the time. During the check in process I was told a blatant lie that the inclusive relax insurance already purchased via Auto Europe did not fully cover us in the event of an accident as we would not get a copy of a Police report so would not get a refund from Auto Europe ( to cover our excess,) She even went as far as telling me Auto Europe gave me incorrect information- I showed the documents and pointed out refund information. She then offered a free ( end of season offer) of an up graded car- full tank of petrol ,return empty, and I could have full insurance to cover everything for 320 euro !! Note: this is a free upgrade!!!! Obviously I declined and said I was satisfied with the existing vehicle and the contract with Auto Europe- She then started chatting in Greek to her colleagues and we knew it was along the lines of " Oh well I did try, but could not con them" the others then started laughing!. I had read previous reviews of this practice by Goldcar, but that was customers who dealt direct. By going via Auto Europe I would have thought it would not happen, obviously it is common practice and they try it every time they think someone is gullable or unsuspecting!. She also said my credit card deposit would be held for 1 month after returning the car - why ? Surely if the car is returned in the condition it was collected it should be returned immediately. "

" First of all it was not clear at Chania Airport where the Goldcar site was. We had to ask several people who in the end told us a mini bus would take us to the site. This didn't arrive so our son, who had hired a car with a different company, took us. The pick up procedure took a very long time and the staff member didn't give us our contract. They then called us after about twenty minutes into our journey to say we had to go back to collect it. We had a long way to go, it was dark and by this time the whole procedure had already taken three hours from landing. The car itself was much smaller than the one I booked and was very damaged. It drove really poorly so we didn't feel safe in it at all. We spent until Wednesday worrying about our lack of contract and had no response from Goldcar about it. It was only when Auto Europe got involved that we managed to have it e mailed to us. We are very appreciative of Auto Europe help and would book through them again but definitely not Goldcar. "

But owing to a late flight arrival we did not collect our car until after 9pm so I was charged an additional 25 euros which seemed unnecessary.

When I made the booking I included the fact that it would be a late arrival and yet there was no mention of a late collection charge at any stage during the booking process.

" We arrived on time for our pre booked car. The Hertz guy at the counter told us he had a very nice car for us a Seat Toledo. As we had booked and paid for a mid size SUV this car was unacceptable. We were then told they had no SUV's and the nearest one was 4 hours away. They then told us they could next us one the next day and after we'll over an hour we had to make do with a #mall Mercedes hatch back that said it was over 7,000 kilometres overdue it's first service. After wasting all the next day trying to get the car we booked we ended up with a slightly dilapidated Suzuki Vitara that was obviously well overdue to be replaced. So we had to waste more than 2 days of a precious holiday plus many phone calls to get not what was booked. We won't ever use Hertz again! "

Vehicle provided was in reasonably good match with chosen size/category and condition was also acceptable, especially given the very competitive pricing.

At the desk it took another 15 minutes, with the two staff very slow. 1hr 20 mins waiiting time to get the car; not a good start to a holiday.

Also the central locking was faulty. The car was good on fuel. "

" Took a little whilst airport to sort out but good "
" The car we used was sufficient for what we needed, but it was clear within 2 mins of driving, there were some mechanical issues that have been ignored because they did not affect its road worthiness. the wheel bearing was on its way out, the noise is unique to this problem. The wiper blades did not clear the screen during cleaning, you see very little rain in Crete, if any, but even so they did not function as they should. For a car that has only done 58,000 miles the engine had a measured reduction in power when accelerating in 3rd and 4th gear to a point where it was wasting fuel asking the engine to accelerate, fuel economy was therefore greatly reduced because of this. "
