car rental in corfu

A small car. The roads in the north-east and the west hills are narrow, often single-track with passing places, and villages have tight corners between stone walls. A compact is easier to squeeze past oncoming traffic and to park on a narrow lane above a beach, and it uses less fuel on the long climbs.

Somewhere central or on the east coast if you want to reach both ends of the island in day trips. The north-east around Kassiopi and Nissaki is scenic but slow to get out of, and the far south is a long run to the northern beaches. Corfu Town itself is car-unfriendly, so pick a base outside it and drive in for an evening or two.

A full driving licence held for at least a year is the usual requirement, and each company sets its own minimum age and young-driver conditions. If your licence is not in the Latin alphabet, bring an International Driving Permit alongside it. The exact conditions for every car are shown before you book.

Deposit and insurance terms differ between companies in Corfu, so they are shown per car before you book. You will see what is included, what the excess is, and whether a deposit is held on your card at the desk.
