KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Agios Nikolaos

  • By opting for car hire in Agios Nikolaos, you won't be reliant on public transport routes and schedules. You'll have the flexibility to drive anywhere you like and plan your travel itinerary with complete freedom. You can drive to smaller towns to explore traditional Cretan culture, like Kritsa, and stop off at the 13th-century Panagia Kera church, with its original Byzantine frescoes.
  • Heraklion International Airport "Nikos Kazantzakis" (HER) is Crete's main airport, making it the most convenient place for tourists to get car hire in Agios Nikolaos. Roughly half a dozen of the world's most popular car hire brands have kiosks at the airport. You'll find them in the main Arrivals hall once you've collected your luggage and passed through Customs. Their signage is very easy to spot from there. Once you're all sorted, it's about a 50-minute drive to Agios Nikolaos.
  • The first thing you'll have to adjust to if you've opted for car hire in Agios Nikolaos is that you'll drive on the right-hand side, rather than on the left as in the UK. It's not difficult, but be careful not to fall into old habits, especially which way to yield at intersections. Another peculiarity of driving in Agios Nikolaos is the large number of mopeds that you'll encounter on its roads. Even though you drive on the right and pass on the left, mopeds usually prefer to pass on the right, no matter how much space there is. Stay very alert for this.
  • The roads in and around Agios Nikolaos are in various states of repair, so always expect the unexpected. A well-surfaced tarred road can suddenly give way to gravel. The local drivers can also be somewhat impatient, and it's conventional to move to the hard shoulder to allow faster vehicles to pass. Be very careful when doing so, however, as these shoulders can also come to an abrupt end. Also beware of the many pedestrians in the town.
  • Book your rental car in Agios Nikolaos at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Economy rental cars in Agios Nikolaos are around 51% cheaper than other car types, on average

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Agios Nikolaos?

    Your first consideration will be whether to opt for an automatic or a manual vehicle for your Agios Nikolaos car hire choice. This will avoid having to adjust to changing gears with your right hand. For city driving, a compact car or sedan will do you well. If you're planning to take road trips outside the town, though, opt for something more versatile like an SUV to deal with the different types of roads you'll encounter. Potholes are common, as are loose gravel surfaces caused by rockfalls. If you're taking a road trip through a rural area, a 4x4 is recommended.

  • What's the speed limit in Agios Nikolaos?

    The speed limits are pretty straightforward in Agio Nikolaos, and the road signs are easily visible. You can drive at 50 km/h (around 30 mph) in built-up urban areas, and at 90 km/h (about 56 mph) on the highways that serve the town. Pay attention all the time, however, as the traffic police are fond of speed trapping just after signs that reduce the speed limit and will issue spot fines.

  • Where are the best places to park in Agios Nikolaos?

    You can park on most of the streets in Agios Nikolaos, but this can often be hard to find. It's not a bad idea to buy a parking card, which you can get from one of the many peripteros (parking kiosks). The town also has a two parking lots that cost around €3 (£2.60) – Manolis Parking Lot and the Marina of Agios Nikolaos. These are centrally placed, allowing you to comfortably walk to the town's beaches and other attractions. You can also usually find free parking at Akti Atlantidos near the Kritsa Junction.

The crew at Green Motion Agios Nicholas were sensational and made the whole experience very easy for us. We had a great car for the week, and they made it possible to extend by another day to suit our trip as well. Thanks for all tips before we headed off, and it made everything so good for the entirety of the stay.
