Driver’s Licence
If you are from an EU Member State, Great Britain, Northern Ireland, Norway, Iceland, Lichtenstein or Switzerland, or from any country that has signed the Vienna Convention you only need a National Driving Licence.

Traffic Violations – Fines
The client is responsible for all paring fines, traffic violation fines and administrative costs incurred during the rental period, due to the infringement of Greek Traffic Law.

The car is only to be used on paved roads or public highways. The driver is strictly forbidden to use the car if intoxicated or under the influence of medication or narcotics. This would immediately cancel the insurance and the driver would be liable for all damages.

The car will be delivered in good condition and with all engine maintenance taken care of. The renter is obliged to take care of the daily checks required, like tire pressure and engine faults usually shown by the system like oil pressure, charging and cooling water levels.
