Top tips for hiring a car in Kalamata
- Car hire in Kalamata is a good choice, no matter which part of this historic city you’re visiting or staying in for a couple of reasons: it offers better value for money than using taxis, and it will give you complete freedom of choice as to when you visit the tourist attractions in the city and around it. In town, the Church of Ypapantis is a prime example of Byzantine architecture, and the Central Food Market is the place to head for world-renowned traditional Greek food. You also really should take advantage of your mobility and explore further afield in the Messenia region, particularly places like Voidokilia Beach.
- As the capital of the region, the city has its own airport, Kalamata International Airport, which is just under 7 miles from the centre of Kalamata. All the car hire brands that you would typically find at a major European airport are there, including Avis, National, Hertz and Budget. Their offices are in the arrivals hall itself, and from there it’s a short walk across to the car park from where you can collect your vehicle, once you’ve checked in in person for your Kalamata car hire reservation.
- When you’re booking car hire in Kalamata, bear in mind that the city can be a little maze-like. Don’t let this put you off for a moment though, because you’ll get used to the layout pretty quickly. Be very careful when negotiating narrow roads and resist the temptation to pull off from intersections too quickly, as the traditional Greek way of life is alive and well here, which includes a leisurely approach to cycling and walking. So be on the lookout for pedestrians and slow-moving bicycles. You should also pay attention to pedestrian-only streets like Iatropoulou Street and a long section of Aristonemous Street.
- Traffic doesn’t get too bad in the residential areas, but it can get congested in the city centre itself, as well as in the narrow streets of the Old City. You can expect traffic to ebb and flow, with a rush hour that can last from 08:00 to 10:00 and start building up once again at between 15:30 and 16:00, reaching its zenith at around 16:30 to 17:00. Aristonemous Square is an area that is best avoided when it’s busy, even though (or perhaps because) the street itself is blocked off to vehicles. Traffic build-up can also happen on Faron and Navarinou streets.

FAQs about renting a car in Kalamata
What type of car is recommended for driving in Kalamata?
You’ll certainly need a smallish car if you’re visiting the historic districts that form the original core of the town, like the Old City. The streets can get narrow and twisty here, so the more agile your car, the better. On the other side of the coin, if you want to drive out to one of the scenic beaches, then it would be a great idea to get a spacious MPV if you’re travelling as a group or a family. If you want to add a dash of classic Greek island romance to your visit, you can opt for a convertible or sports car and treat yourself.
What’s the speed limit in Kalamata?
In the city itself, the speed limit is 30mph, which is particularly enforced where the pedestrian streets meet ones that carry vehicular traffic.
