One-Way rentals:

This website provides the possibility for rentals that start and end in the same city. For example Athens to Athens or Athens Airport to Athens city, or Port Piraeus to Athens Airport.

Returning to a different city than the one prescribed in the reservation or rental agreement will be charged accordingly.

 

Office hours:

Our office hours are  08:00-21:00  7 days a week. Any service outside these hours is charged with the amount of 27 EUR. When you request an offer where outside-office-hours service is required, our offer always includes this extra charge and you will not be asked to pay anything more. However, any deviation from the confirmed pick up or return hours will incur extra charges and if our station is closed we will not be held responsible. So it is advised that we are informed ahead of time of any such timetable changes by any means of contact (e-mail, phone, fax).
