Driving to the most beautiful beaches of Samos in autumn

Since Samos is a popular destination for those who want to take a break from everyday life during summer, your first trip with a hired car will probably not take you to the island's capital. Nevertheless, you should definitely tear yourself away from the beach fun for a day and take a diversion, because the wine museum is one of the absolute highlights of the island, along with the ancient sites. Furthermore, the archaeological museum with its extensive collection of statues and objects is an absolute must for all visitors interested in culture. Are you travelling to Samos for the first time? Then perhaps the following kilometre details will help you a little in your travel planning.

Where is the car hire pick-up station at Samos International Airport?

With only about 400,000 passenger check-ins per year, the airport, which opened in 1963, is not one of the largest airports in Greece, so you will find your way around the small terminal very quickly and reach the car hire counters in no time. If you have decided to hire a car from one of the car hire companies that does not have a counter in the airport, then you have the option of reaching the car hire company by shuttle bus, although some car hire companies will also provide you with the hired car at the airport or pick you up personally.

Samos Airport - General Information

Entering Samos Airport with pronounced hunger pangs is a rather bad idea, as unfortunately the restaurant offerings are currently limited to an "Ontime Coffee & More" offering. At least you can still spend a little time in one of the duty-free stores and get carried away buying a few odds and ends. However, the airport scores with its free internet, so you will definitely succeed in bridging the time until departure.

Where is the nearest gas station at Samos Airport?

Fortunately, you will find quite a few gas stations on Samos, but unfortunately not at the airport, so you are well advised to choose a hired car with a fair refuelling arrangement, so that you do not have to look for a gas station directly after your arrival. The two closest Silk Oil gas stations can be found by heading towards Chora, although you should keep in mind that most gas stations on Samos are not open around the clock, so if you have an early or late departure, you should fill up as early as possible.

Hired car at Samos Airport: Great round trip possibilities

With only about 69 inhabitants per square kilometre, Samos, with a total size of just over 477 km², is not really one of the densely populated islands of the Aegean, so if you go on a round trip along the coast with your hired car, you will find many lonely picturesque bays and stretches of land where you can enjoy wonderful sunsets.
But also a hike in the green hinterland of the island rich in ancient architecture is a special experience, in which nature and culture-loving travelers should have their joy.
Should you plan a round trip across the island with your hired car, then it is best to take a little time to be able to give your undivided attention to the sights of the island, such as the Logothétis Castle in Pythagorion or the Cave of Pythagoras and the Tunnel of Eupalinios as well as the Monastery of Megali PanagiaIhre in Koumaradei.
