Rhodes convinces with its typical Greek ambience even in winter. Here it means: culture, sun and above all relaxation! If you want to enjoy full flexibility and explore the diverse nature on the Mediterranean island in winter, you should not miss to do this on your own with a hired car. Especially in winter there is a mild Mediterranean climate, so it very rarely gets really cold in Greece. So the winter is perfect for a discovery tour.
Special highlights in Rhodes to explore with a hired car:

• Old Town (UNESCO World Heritage Site)
• Grand Master Palace of the Order of St. John
• Archaeological Museum
• Museum of Decorative Arts
• Byzantine Museum in the Church of St. Mary Panagia tou Kástrou
• Museum of Modern Greek Art
• 13 churches, 5 mosques and a synagogue

Pay attention to the obligation to wear a seatbelt and check before hiring your car if there is a warning vest, a warning triangle, the first aid kit and a fire extinguisher in the boot! In case of breakdowns or accidents, it is mandatory to wear the high-visibility vest. In addition, making phone calls while driving is only allowed with a wireless hands-free device via Bluetooth. The blood alcohol limit here is 0.5. To drive a car in Greece, you fortunately do not need an international driver's license, but remember to carry not only the driver's license, but also a valid passport at all times.

All car hire companies require a deposit, the amount of which varies from car hire company to car hire company. However, it does not depend primarily on the currency, but on the type of vehicle. If the hired car is returned without damage, the amount previously charged will be credited back to your credit card or you may choose to have your cash deposit refunded. Due to the deposit, please remember to top up your credit card with the appropriate amount early enough before your trip to Greece, as most rental companies will not provide a hired car without a deposit.

If you do not want to spend the whole time of your stay in Rhodes alone at the wheel, you can include an additional driver for the hired car at the car hire agency. Usually, a small additional fee is charged for this, a price that is often settled per rented day. However, there are also offers that include an additional driver free of charge. Here, an online comparison is worthwhile in advance. In addition, the concluded insurances are automatically transferred to the additional driver, so you do not have to take out extra insurance.
