Book Cheap AVIS Car Hire Deals in Astithea, Athens, Greece

Familiarize yourself with the fuel policy for your rental. A 'Full-to-Full' policy means returning the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' indicates you return it at the same fuel level. Full-to-Full is usually more economical.

If you plan to have someone else drive, check if the rental company permits a second driver and whether there are extra fees involved. Some may offer free additional drivers under specific conditions.

If you're traveling with pets, confirm the rental company's pet policy before booking. Some companies allow pets but may have specific fees or restrictions, so it’s best to clarify in advance.

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Athens, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70

Prior to booking, check for any current promotional offers or discounts. Many rental agencies provide seasonal deals or early booking discounts.

Many rental companies require payment by credit card and may not accept debit cards. If you only have a debit card, check the rental company's payment policies in advance and look for suitable options.

Before you return the vehicle, clarify the return procedures with the rental agency. Knowing where to drop off the car and any required inspections can make the process easier.

If you have a specific vehicle model in mind, consider rentals that guarantee the car type you want. This avoids surprises at pickup when you receive an alternative vehicle.
