Prices and availability for Kefalonia come through our partner networks, EconomyBookings and Discover Cars. Your booking completes on the partner's secure checkout.
Kefalonia is a big, mountainous island and its famous spots are spread around the coast rather than clustered in one place. Myrtos beach, Assos, Fiskardo, the Melissani cave and the Argostoli waterfront are linked by winding roads that climb over ridges and drop steeply to the sea, so a car is what turns a beach stay into an island. Our partner network compares local and international rental companies with live prices.

Renting a car in Kefalonia: common questions
Where should I base myself on Kefalonia?
Argostoli and the Lassi beaches give the widest choice of restaurants and short drives to the airport. Fiskardo and Assos in the north are prettier and quieter but further from everything. With a car you can stay anywhere and still cover the island, the drives themselves are much of the point.
What kind of car handles Kefalonia's roads?
A small or compact car with decent power is ideal. Roads are mostly asphalt but narrow, steep and full of hairpins, particularly down to Myrtos and along the Assos coast. Big cars are awkward in the villages and gain you nothing. Check the conditions shown per car if you plan to drive rougher tracks to remote beaches.
What licence do I need?
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.
Is there a deposit, and what about insurance?
Deposit and insurance terms differ between companies in Kefalonia, 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.
Where does the booking actually happen?
You search from this page and see live cars and prices on our partner’s site. When you choose one, the booking completes on their secure checkout, where you confirm the details and receive your voucher. Show the voucher at the desk on pick-up.
