KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Ios

  • Car rentals in Ios, South Aegean, Greece, offer the freedom to explore at your pace. With a rental, you can conveniently reach attractions like Mylopotas Beach, known for its crystal-clear waters, and the historic Paleokastro ruins. Car rentals prove more economical than taxis, especially when visiting multiple sites like Chora Village and Homer's Tomb. This flexibility, combined with lower costs compared to taxis, enhances the travel experience, enabling easy access to diverse destinations while enjoying the scenic beauty of Ios.
  • Santorini (Thira) International Airport (JTR) is one of the best pick-up locations for Ios car rentals At JTR, the car rentals are conveniently available at the arrivals area. After disembarking, head to the ground floor, where various car rental agencies are stationed. Inside Parikia Paros Airport (PAS), car rentals for Ios can also be found at the arrivals section. On arrival, proceed to the designated car rental counters within the airport terminal. Both airports offer hassle-free access to car rentals, allowing travellers to swiftly acquire vehicles and commence their journey to explore Ios and its picturesque destinations.
  • When considering car rentals in Ios, remember to check your driving license's validity and rental terms. The city driving style is generally relaxed, but roads can be narrow and winding. Adherence to traffic laws varies; while many drivers follow the rules, some might drive more assertively. Always drive defensively. In Greece, seat belts are mandatory for all passengers, and children under 135 cm must use appropriate car seats. Stay informed about local driving regulations, carry necessary documents, and drive cautiously to make the most of your Ios car rental experience while ensuring safety for all passengers.
  • Using car rentals in Ios might present challenges like narrow roads in some areas, limited parking spots during peak tourist seasons, and occasional aggressive driving styles. Rush hours around 9 am and 6 pm, particularly in the Chora village area, can lead to congestion on roads like the Ios Ring Road and the route towards Mylopotas Beach. Navigating these conditions requires patience and vigilance, but with careful planning, you can still enjoy the benefits of exploring the island at your own pace.
