Car hire is not included in the villa or apartment rental prices. At some of the villas car hire is necessary because local buses are almost non-existent and taxis are expensive. Even at properties which are near to amenities we do highly recommend car hire because without transport you will miss seeing many of the spectacular sights that Crete has to offer. A car gives you the freedom to travel at your leisure, with total independence and the opportunity to visit some of the more remote areas of Crete that would otherwise be inaccessible.
