Capital of Crete and the island's main port, Heraklion offers a fine blend of ancient history with all the benefits and attractions of a modern seaside destination. Its lively waterfront area is blessed with many fine al fresco restaurants, tree-lined squares and several excellent museums, and all within a few minutes of Ammoudara Beach, one of the best in the Mediterranean. In ancient times, Heraklion was the port of Knossos where the Minoans (Europe's oldest-known civilization) traded gold, saffron and ceramics. Today, The magnificent Palace of Knossos is not only Crete's top attraction but one of the most important tourist sites in the whole of Europe. Located just 3 miles south-east of the city, this vast archaeological treasure trove is remarkable for its elaborate decoration, some of which dates back to 2000 BC. Spread across almost 30 different galleries, the Heraklion Archaeological Museum in the centre of town depicts more than 5,500 years of history, displaying many of the precious artifacts unearthed at nearby Knossos, most notably the world-famous and perfectly-preserved Prince of the Lilies fresco dated 1550 BC. Heraklion's Old Town is an extensive maze of pedestrianised streets with around 1,000 shops selling food, souvenirs and the very best in Cretian handicrafts. The island of Crete (the largest in Greece) is best seen by road, and with a car hire in Heraklion you can discover the island's many highlights, such as Chania (the second-largest town in Crete) and Agios Georgios, one of the most atmospheric places on the island.
With over 65 years' experience providing quality car hire at the cheapest prices, Auto Europe now offers more than 24,000 point-up and drop-off points in over 180 different countries around the world. You can collect your car rental in Heraklion in the heart of town or at Heraklion Airport located just 3 miles east of the city centre. The island is perfect for touring and Auto Europe can offer you a wide range of vehicles, from a sumptuous SUV to a modern minivan for that exciting road-trip around Crete. Why not read the opinions of others in our Heraklion car hire reviews section below before planning your next motoring holiday on the island.

" On the drop off day the road to the yard where I picked up the vehicle was closed due to a local market. After half an hour trying to get to the yard I had to call the staff and arrange to meet somewhere else to return the car which added 1 hr onto the drop off time. Fortunately I had sufficient time before my flight. This should have been communicated during collection. "

" Very straightforward in booking a car and having the necessary paperwork for the hire car company, Green Motion, at the airport. They are generally good value for money. I would therefore recommend them to anyone wanting a hire car anywhere in the world "
" Unlike reviews about Green Motion at other airports, at Heraklion they are fine. The paperwork at the airport desk was pretty swift. The pick-up was from a compound about 100m away from Arrivals. The car was in excellent condition as it was fairly new, pretty comfortable and a boot that was big enough for our suitcases. The one negative was that if there'd been a problem with it, then I'd have had to walk back inside the terminal building to the office to get it sorted. We had 2 trouble-free weeks with the car and when I returned it to the same compound at the airport, there was someone to check it over and complete the necessary paperwork. All-in-all, a very good experience in renting a hire car from Green Motion. I recommend them to you "

" Very good prices. "
" I don't like their policy about the tank. I would prefer to get a full tank and give a full tank back (as stated in the auto-europe voucher). I don't like that my first worry has to be to look for a petrol station and I don't like to end up always giving back more fuel than there was at the beginning. "
" No problems at all. "
" All good! "
" Easy online booking process, reasonable car hire price. "
" Quite a long wait to be served and complete the paperwork at the hire desk, but efficient and polite service once we reached the head of the queue. Car provided was very clean and just right for our holiday. "
" The Insurance options were unecessarily confusing. But a great deal and the car was very good, pick up and drop off was very easy once you found the kiosk! "
" Maybe some indication as to where to find the car hire at the airport would have been helpful. "
" all very good "
" we were informed when we got there that the excess policy i had taken out was not really suitable, that we would still have to pay any excess costs and then claim back which would have been a long and tiresome exercise, fortunately nothing went wrong and it wasnt needed. We were given an upgrade which was great but the car was rather dirty inside. "
" Everything as promised "
" Fuel was half full & told to bring back half full. One reason I took Enterprise was that the arrangement was tank would be full & bring back full "
" E-mail offers from Auto Europe are usually very competitively priced and allow me to book my car hire straight after the accommodation etc. has been booked. Online booking is very convenient for me. "
" Quite busy at airport but was served by a courteous, efficient & pleasant lady at both the hire and car return. "
" Office should have been closed as flight delayed. Maay be of benefit to others to be advised of possible cost for late arrival. "
" Simple to fond / deal with and very helpful "
" Website was clear and easy to use and useful to get the reminder email in the week before travel. Would certainly look at using again in the future. "
" The staff in the terminal were helpful and quick at their work. The staff at the vehicle collection/drop off location could have been a bit more helpful and had a better focus on customer service. "
" Prices and insurance coverage were a little confusing "
" Understaffed, map provided insufficient no interest in ensuring we got to our hotel easily. Car was very battered and not very new with lots of miles on the clock not what I expect from Enterprise who I have used all over the world,will be reluctant to use again "
" Fast,easy & no hidden agendas as always "
" No problems at all "
" Ive been going to Crete for 15 years and i sometimes go Four times a year,each time, hiring a car.This was the best car ive ever had.( Hyundia i30 ).I will definately be using your company again.Thanks "
" Ive been going to Crete for 15 years and i sometimes go Four times a year,each time, hiring a car.This was the best car ive ever had.( Hyundia i30 ).I will definately be using your company again.Thanks "
" booking my car was simple - the website is very easy to use. "
" Mechanically, the car is very good. The interior is also good, but the bodywork on my car had some minor damage. The service at the National desk at Heraklion Airport was also first class - thank you! "
" Booking quick and uncomplicated. "
" Avis didn't have the Mercedes A Class which I really wanted as we are considering buying one in UK, but they provided a nice Volvo S40 which was fine and economical to run. We have a very similar Volvo C30 in UK so driving it was a doddle! Avis very helpful and courteous. "
" Easy to arrange, however it wasn't made clear to me how to find the car when I got to Greece. I didn't see the local rental companies name on the form, so we were looking for Auto Europe desk in the middle of the night. Perhaps make it clearer who the local rental company will be. "
" The car given to me by National car rental was very beaten up, the local guy didn't show me to the car. I had to go and find it in the car park, when we got to the car, I immediately notices all the accidents that car had been involved in, and had to return the the terminal to get the National car rep to note down all of the dents and scratches on the car. If they had shown me to the car, they could have done this and there wouldn't have been any problems. "
" I was very pleased with this rental. My only criticism is that you should make it clear, or much more clear, before booking that there is an out of hours fee that I had to pay. Also I would prefer the car to be full with fuel on collection and then I have to leave it full at the end of the rental. "
" As above "
" Easy booking, good price "
" Good overall but not happy we had to pay late collection fee because our flight was delayed "
" I was not happy at all with the car provided, although we did not let this spoil our holiday. The car, a Suzuki Swift, had over 52000 miles on the clock and looked the worse for wear. First gear and reverse did not engage easily and the car stalled several times when I was moving off or reversing. I am an ex-driving instructor so I like to think I know what I'm doing. The remote central locking didn't work. Also, the car was under powered and climbing over the Cretan hills was laborious to say the least. Overall, we were extremely disappointed, and could have hired a much better car locally. "
" The girl at Heraklion did not show us rounnd the car, we were left to our own devices. Since it was dark, we were not aware of all the dents and scratches on the car until 2 days later when we set off on our first drive. The remote central locking did not work and when I walked back to the National office to ask for a replacement the girl was not interested - if it hadn't been late at night after a long flight I would have complained more strongly at the time., "
" All went very smoothly and easily. Clear instructions. "
" Woman at reception extremely affable considering our plane was delayed over three hours and arrived around 1.30am. No queue - car type upgraded and she gave us choice of 3 models. Speedy return as well. We were also relieved car had a full tank when we picked it up as all petrol stations seemed closed because we arrived so late. "
" Great value and selection of vehicles. "
" Very good . "
" Very easy to book "
" Very quick and efficient service from Avis at Heraklion "
" Very pleasing and quite satisfied with most. And got new car. "
" Had to wait quite a bit as only one operator working and a few people hiring cars. Wait time about half hour. Not long but us if you've been on go all day. "
" Except the fact that it was needed (surprisingly for me) to make a big deposit (700 euro) for the car at pick up, everything was just fine. The deal was one of the best I could find online. "
" They didn't knew that I had full insurance and asked for 700 euros deposit. Unpleasant for me as I wasn't aware about this procedure (I have rented a lot of times before without this). On the other hand they gave us a better class car. Good deal again. "
