If you're primarily exploring the cities and towns, a small car is a good choice. However, if you plan to venture off the beaten path or explore the mountainous regions of the island, an SUV or a car with a higher ground clearance might be more suitable. The roads in some remote or rural parts of Crete can be challenging, with steep inclines, sharp turns and sometimes uneven or unpaved surfaces. If you’re not experienced in driving a manual car, perhaps ask for an automatic when booking. Crete’s hills and winding roads can be daunting for those without sufficient experience. Regardless of the car type you choose, make sure your Souda hire car has air conditioning. The Mediterranean climate can get very hot, especially in the summer.

In Greece, speed limits follow a standard structure based on the type of road and location. Generally, the speed limit is set to 50 km/h (30 mph) within built-up areas. This limit applies to cities, towns and other populated regions. When you move outside these built-up areas, the speed limit typically increases to 90 km/h (55 mph). Meanwhile, on expressways like the national road running along the northern coast of Crete, the speed limit is typically 110 km/h (68 mph).

Like most Greek towns, you can find street parking available for your hire car in Souda. Generally, street parking is free on Crete, but it's important to check before leaving your car. There may be areas that require a permit, have time limitations or are reserved exclusively for residents. There is also free parking to be found near the port, which is ideal if you’re looking to explore the waterfront.
