Question 1

Is it a good idea to hire a car in Chania

Accepted Answer

Renting a car in Chania can be a good idea depending on your travel needs and preferences. If you plan to explore areas outside the city or need the flexibility of having your own vehicle, then hiring a car might be beneficial. However, consider the cost, traffic conditions, and availability of public transportation, as in some cities it may be more convenient and cost-effective to use public transit or ride-sharing services. Always check the local driving laws and ensure you're comfortable with the driving conditions before deciding to hire a car.

Question 2

Do I need to return the vehicle with a full tank of gas?

Accepted Answer

The Europcar fuel policy you select in Chania will determine your fueling responsibilities. With a full-to-full or same-to-same option, you need to return the car with the same amount of fuel it had at pickup. If not, you'll be charged for the missing fuel at a rate higher than the local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank. This means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, the cost will be higher overall since you'll be charged the local gas price minus a per-gallon discount, leading to an increased total cost.

Question 3

Why do I need a credit card to rent a car from Europcar in Chania?

Accepted Answer

A credit card is typically required to secure the rental and cover any additional charges, such as tolls, damages, or fuel, that may occur during the rental period.

In some locations, debit cards may be accepted, but they often require additional documentation or a credit check. Always check with Europcar for specific payment policies in Chania
