How to get the best car hire deal in Araxos Airport

Here's everything you need to know to hit the road happy after you've touched down in Araxos Airport. 

How to find a cheap car hire deal in Araxos Airport (GPA)

  • Whether you need a small car for zipping through the city streets or an SUV for a road trip, we'll help you find a cheap Araxos Airport rental car. Choose from options averaging R 1,970 a day and go where you want for less.

  • R 569 is the cheapest daily price listed for a rental at Araxos Airport.

  • Staying longer in Araxos and want to explore beyond the main attractions? R 1,291 is the lowest rate for a weekly rental.

  • Book early to snag a cheap GPA car hire. On top of better deals, you'll be choosing from the full lineup, not what's left.

  • Avance, Surprice and Exer Rent A Car are some of the top providers at Araxos Airport.

  • Whether you go with Avance or a different supplier, be sure to check the coverage on your Araxos Airport car hire. Some companies include a collision damage waiver (CDW), while others treat it as an add-on.

  • Booking a one-way car hire is often a great hack for cheaper deals. Select 'Return car to a different location' when browsing for a car for hire in GPA. Providers often need to move vehicles between locations, which means you can bag some awesome one-way prices.

  • Search for a vehicle with a 'Fair fuel policy.' You'll pick up and drop off your car hire in Araxos Airport with a full tank, so you're only paying for what you use. You won't get hit with overpriced refueling charges either.

  • Hit the road without watching the miles and racking up extra charges. Go to the 'Policies' filter and pick 'Unlimited mileage' to find a car that lets you travel without limits.

Compare car hire types from Araxos Airport (GPA)

  • Small: These cheap Araxos Airport rental cars may be small in size, but they pack a big punch. Including mini and economy vehicles, they're agile, fuel efficient, and just the thing for short trips.

  • Medium: A solid choice when you need something that's easy to drive but with a few more features. This category covers compact and intermediate models that offer a little extra leg room compared to smaller options.

  • Large: Offering greater driving comfort and extra tech features, this GPA car hire category includes full-size cars. With larger rear seats and ample storage space, they let you load up and take everyone, and everything, with ease.

Insurance and optional extras

  • Excess insurance covers the fee you'd have to pay if your GPA car hire is stolen or damaged. While not mandatory, it can be a real lifesaver if something goes wrong. Just remember that not all insurance policies are equal, so make sure you understand exactly what's offered.

  • Take your ride to the next level with extras like a reverse camera or navigation unit. These features can turn your drive into a smoother experience when you rent a car in Araxos Airport.

Good to know

  • Rental age requirements aren't the same everywhere. Companies can set their own policies, and if you're a younger driver, you could encounter extra costs or restrictions. Check what applies with each supplier before booking your rental in Greece.

  • Bringing the kids with you? Car seat laws differ from place to place, and the right setup may depend on their age, weight and height. Check if you need to add one to your GPA car hire reservation.

  • You'll need to hand over a few things when collecting your rental car: a current driver's licence, another form of photo ID, and a credit card that can cover the security deposit. Debit cards usually aren't accepted. Your booking will flag any other must-haves.

  • Driving in Greece can take some adjustment if it's your first time. Keep in mind you'll need to stay on the right side of the road.

  • Local speed limits are usually about 45kph through built-up areas and around 125kph on highways. Road signs will indicate if the limit is different.

  • The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit in Greece is 0.05%. Because alcohol doesn't affect all people equally, the surest choice is to avoid drinks so you remain legal to drive.

  • English is the language you'll hear most often in this country.

Drive smarter from the start

  • Kick off the real journey once you've collected the keys to your GPA car hire. You've got the freedom to go wherever you want, but if you're heading for central Araxos, it's about 2 kilometres to the north.

  • Aim to travel outside high-traffic periods for a smoother run in general. 8am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.

  • You can also grab a car hire in Araxos. If you don't need a vehicle as soon as you land, wait until you're in the city and avoid paying for unused rental days.

Hit the road: Where to drive from Araxos Airport (GPA)

  • Begin with some of the biggest attractions in Araxos, like Teichos Dymaion. Whether you take your car or get there another way, you'll want to see this highlight before you leave town.

  • Pyrgos should be on your itinerary if you'd like to see Paralia Katakolo and Plakes Beach. This city is around 56 kilometres south of GPA.

  • Alternatively, take the wheel of your Araxos Airport car hire and head roughly 48 kilometres northeast to Náfpaktos. Featuring Nafpaktos Old Port and The Venetian Castle of Nafpaktos, its attractions are worth the drive.
