Lesvos is one of the largest Greek islands and shaped like a hand, with two deep gulfs cutting into it, which makes driving distances long and a car close to essential. Mytilene in the south-east is a long haul from Molyvos in the north and from the petrified forest and Sigri in the far west, on roads that are mostly good but slow through the hills. Our partner network compares local and international rental companies with live prices.

Renting a car in Lesvos: common questions

Where should I base myself on Lesvos?

Molyvos and Petra in the north give you the prettiest towns and the beaches nearby, with Skala Eressos in the west a drive away. Mytilene is the working capital and best if you want the ferry, the nightlife and a shorter airport transfer. Many visitors split their stay.

How long does it take to cross the island?

Longer than it looks. The gulfs of Kalloni and Gera force the roads inland, and the western routes to Sigri and Eressos wind through bare hills. Plan on a good part of a morning to get from Mytilene to the west coast, and treat a trip there as a full day.

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 Lesvos, 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.
