No hassle car hire

Easy to book through the internet via carrentals.co.uk. Clear instructions, paperwork and terms and conditions received promptly. Upon arrival at destination (Crete) it was easy to find the dealer and pick up the car with minimum amount of fuss. Free extra driver and a choice of a couple of models within the category was made available. Upon return - dropped off car and checked over car with dealer for bumps etc and that was it! No hassle car hire. Very happy bunny!

Cheapest car hire however watch for extras

In a nutshell they provided the cheapest car hire possible for my holiday, however what they dont mention (well they probably do if you like reading pages of small print) is that upon collection you will also be handing over extra for a tank of fuel ontop, I guess this depends on the hire company rather than 121 however it would have been good to have been advised a bit more prominently about this when comparing the different prices. With Olympic car rental in rhodes, greece we were definately overcharged when you work out what the fuel would have cost for the fuel capacity of the vehicle, and ontop of that you are instructed to bring the car back empty, which unless you get it spot on, will mean there is a few litres left which all is a little extra pocket money for the hire company too.

Site was easy to use and very reasonable priced, was very happy. The car had easy collection and delivery. The car itself was perfect for our needs although it did have trouble starting a few times and there was no reply on the mobile number we were given. But it didnt spoil our holiday, would definately book with you again. Thank you.

Easy car hire

We booked a car for our 9-day holiday - it was the cheapest, easy to book, pick-up and drop-off were great. All in all, I would highly recommend 121.

Value for money

Collection and drop off great. Car was quite high mileage, but I guess you get what you pay for. Not particularly happy about the 10 euro charge for cleaning, after all I'm not going to try find a car wash at 4am in a country I'm not familiar with. Friendly staff.

Got upgraded to really great car with good price offer. Surprised to find car had sat nav, reversing camera and parking sensors together with cruise control. Diesel fuel just made the experience a joyful one. Service was excellent with friendly staff.

Very good service

We were dealt with quickly and respectfully both on pick up and return of the vehicle. Downside is the 30 min wait for the shuttle bus if you just miss one.

Very friendly staff. Picked up promptly from the airport and car hire only a couple of minutes from the airport. Website stated car fuel was 1/4 full and return 1/4 full. But this did not happen. I was told by easirent that I had to pay for 1/4 tank (they charged £20) and return empty. However the tank was not quite 1/4 full.

You are what you say you are

Very easy booking system with clear information. Pick up and drop off were easy. We had a very new car which was above our expectations. An agent was waiting for us at pick up and drop off and dealt with us speedily. Do make sure you have enough credit availability for the guarantee for the excess, if you don't take the extra insurance. we were 100% satisfied.

Could have been better

The website great, easy to book, print vouchers and that's it. Our car-hire company was KlassWagen Auto - positive: easy to collect, polite, friendly customer service. They speak English very well. Car was clean condition. Good fuel policy (full to full), no out of service hours charge - eg: our flight was landed at 9pm and she was very helpful and no extra charge for late collection. Negative: Where to start......well you need to pay 30euro for winter tyre - which let's say fair enough BUT the winter tyre were AWFULLL-NO tread design in the middle at all(it was flat) it's seriously dangerous to drive a car like that in winter/snowy condition. They charge every single time 30euro Why didn't you change the tires?????? The car was so noisy when we were sitting inside -like an airplane, because of the tires I guess. When we drove the car the steering wheel was kind of shaking in your hand- I guess again because of the tyre. She said we need to return the car in clean condition.... WTF?!? I never heard such a thing ever. Otherwise it will be a charge or something...... no comment. Also we didn't complain at the scene because what can they do at 9-10pm at the airport, and we were exhausted with the children. When we returned again we were hurry to check in and go. Just a lesson for a future to our self. Probably it's depend which car you get. I would not recommend this car at all. Customer service good. But certainly they need to take more attention for technical issues with older cars. And please don't save the money on winter tyres 2 adults and 2 children life valued more than 30euro.

Car rental location Karpathos Airport

Location information for Karpathos Airport

Karpathos Island National Airport is situated on the south side of this unique
Dodecanese island located between Crete and Rhodes. Taxis are the only other way to travel between this airport's Afiartis location and the island's capital, Pigadia, besides car hire in Karpathos Airport. The distance between Pigadia and the airport is slightly over nine miles.


Karpathos Airport facilities

At least 18 airlines provide non-stop charter service to this tiny airport. Most of these airlines serve Italian, German or Scandinavian destinations, but Olympic Air flies directly to Athens and three other Greek islands. Visitors can choose between Jeeps, smaller automobiles and even motorcycles when they compare car hire here.


Karpathos Airport excursions

Many people say Karpathos is actually two islands in one. Northern Karpathos is a ruggedly mountainous region, while the island's southern part is filled with as many olive groves and beautiful beaches as many better known Greek islands. No stay on this island would be complete without a visit to Olympos, where the stone houses and their residents' traditional customs have remained unchanged for centuries. The ruins of an ancient city called Potideon lie near Pigadia's modern port.


Best time to visit

Karpathos is tied with the Crete community of Ierapetra as the Greek territory with the highest annual mean temperature. Perfect weather for the beach begins in May and lasts until October. Karpathos enjoys a dryer climate than other Dodecanese islands. The refreshing Karpathos summer breezes not only provide perfect windsurfing conditions, but keeps mosquitoes away from the beaches.


Car rental in Karpathos Airport

Most Karpathos roads are paved and easy to navigate with car rental in Karpathos Airport. The best quality roads run along the island's west coast, while most interior roads are dirt paths. Drivers should begin any excursions with full tanks as service stations are few and far between in Karpathos. Extra caution should be taken when driving in the island's mountainous and isolated north.

 What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.
