Our Story

CarGreece.com-Car hire for Crete started in 1973 with locations in Crete, pioneering the concept of limited Free Mileage. Immediately carving its niche in the leisure car rental Crete industry, CarGreece.com focused its mission on providing a fun, low-cost, high-value rental experience to family and leisure travelers.

CarGreece.com quickly became one of the Crete island’s largest vacation car rental providers. In addition, the company created programs to accommodate and encourage leisure travel since 1973. To facilitate the increase in leisure travelers, CarGreece.com constructed state-of-the art rental plazas, geared to serve hundreds of customers in a modern, ultra-spacious environment.

The first car rental station opened in Heraklion center, close to the archaeological museum, in 1973. After that, more stations followed in other major leisure destinations including Chania, Rethymnon and Agios Nikolaos. After that, CarGreece.com became Crete’s largest rental facility. In 1984 however, CarGreece.com introduced a new customized rental agreement. It was a program that stored a traveler’s individual rental information for instant reference.

…exploring new fields

On April 19, 1990, CarGreece.com Car hire company set out to revolutionize collision damage waivers. It happened with the introduction of the first-ever price and coverage option for all customers. In order to meet the needs of the “Web” consumer, CarGreece.com became the first car rental company with booking capabilities on the Internet since 1996. Therefore, customers could visit CarGreece.com to find locations, view rates and select their vehicle. Soon, CarGreece.com expanded to include a membership-services section. Similarly, the web site included travel tools for the weather of Crete, driving directions and fun activities for children to enjoy on their road trip.
