Low-Cost Car Rental Rethymnon Crete

The third-largest town on the island of Crete, Rethymno (also written as Rethymnon) resembles more of a laid-back provincial town rather than a big bustling city. For this and many other reasons, Rethymno is a top choice among tourists who choose to visit the town by car rental Rethymnon Crete.

Rethymno is the capital of the regional unit of the same name. Like most major cities of Crete, it is located in the northern part of the island overlooking the beautiful blue Aegean Sea. Built originally during the Minoan civilization, it was known in ancient times as Rithymna or Rithymnia. The town has over the years been conquered by Venetians and Ottomans – both of whom have left their cultural mark on the town. The Battle of Crete against the Germans was also partially held in Rethymno and is known as the Battle of Rethymno.

Getting to Rethymno by car is an easy task, particularly if you choose to rent a car in Rethymno. The town itself is nearly equidistant from both major airports (Heraklion and Chania), so you can conveniently drive to or from either one within an hour and ten minutes.
