KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Samos
- Samos is an island town in Greece. A wise way to make sure you have a nice holiday or tour of the city and beaches is to hire a car in Samos. You can get car hire in Samos through KAYAK, from global car hire companies like Avis, Budget, Dollar, Abbycar, AutoUnion and others. Hiring a car in Samos will give you great freedom and flexibility to travel and visit a beach like Potami Beach, Livadaki Beach, Lemonakia Beach and others. Also, you can visit historical sites like the Aqueduct of Eupalinos and Heraion (Temple of Hera). Having hired a car will help you visit all these and other places without fixing your schedule on public transport.
- Travelling by air, you will land at Samos Airport (SMI). Samos car hire companies have their desks in the arrival hall area, where they are accessible by everyone. Samos Airport is a busy airport; hence, booking your car hire in Samos in advance through KAYAK is a good idea. It's a wise way to have your car type and transmission ready before you start your trip. After arriving at the airport and taking your luggage, head to your car hire desk for document verification, which takes a minute or two; then the car hire agent will direct you to where your car is parked.
- Remember you will be driving on the right-hand side of the road. Also, it would be wise to keep in mind that there is no right turn on red traffic lights; you have to wait for the light to turn green. You will need an international driving licence and to be of at least 18 years of age to drive in Samos. It's mandatory to always have your seatbelt on while driving, and no child under the age of 10 can be in the front seat.
