KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Greece

  • Car rentals in Greece, NY provide the convenience of having your own vehicle to explore the area at your own pace. You don't have to rely on public transportation schedules or pay for expensive taxis. Also, renting a car saves you time by eliminating the need to wait for public transportation or search for a cab. This is especially beneficial if you have a tight schedule or want to maximize your vacation time. Most importantly, Greece, NY, and its surrounding areas have many attractions not easily accessible by public transportation, including the Erie Canal and Oatka Creek Park. With a rental car, you can easily visit these places without limitations.
  • The nearest major airport to Greece, New York, is the Greater Rochester International Airport (ROC). The airport has several car rentals in Greece located on-site, making it convenient for travelers to pick up a rental car upon arrival. The pick-up garage is at the airport's Ground Transportation Center, a short distance from the terminal building and easily accessible via a courtesy shuttle. Popular car rental companies that operate at ROC include well-known brands like Avis, Budget, Enterprise, Hertz, and National. Consider booking online in advance as some specific cars might be in high demand.
  • Greece and the surrounding areas have a growing biking culture. Be aware of cyclists and share the road when driving, as bike lanes and bike-sharing programs exist in some parts of the region. In addition to city driving, Greece has many rural and suburban roads. Drivers may be more accustomed to driving on winding country roads and highways that connect smaller towns and communities. Some highways in New York State, including the New York State Thruway, are toll roads. Be prepared to pay tolls if you plan to use these routes.
  • Like in many suburban areas, rush hours in Greece typically occur during the morning and evening commutes to and from work. The specific timing can vary, but the morning rush hour usually occurs between 7 am and 9 am, and the evening rush hour usually falls between 4:30 pm and 6:30 pm on weekdays. Driving in Greece, NY, during the winter months can be challenging due to cold temperatures, snowfall, and icy conditions. Therefore, consider fixing your Greece car rentals with winter tires, as they provide better traction on snow and ice compared to all-season tires.
  • Intermediate hire cars in Greece are around 59% cheaper than other car types, on average

The office wasn't very organized, the car didn't have gas, car seats weren't available for rent, the car was fine but smelled like smoke although it said non smoking. It wasn't as nice as other cars from other companies, and even from other Enterprise locations.

Pros:

The company is short staffed although the pick up location gal took care of me over phone calls interrupting her.

Cons:

The vehicle that I had had a slipping transmission and needs attention. I told the girl at drop off but she was too busy to care.
