Top tips for renting a car in Kefalonia

  • Driving in Kefalonia is generally going to be a pleasant experience however, you may find sometimes narrower roads or those that are in less than ideal condition. If you can get away with it, renting a smaller and more nimble vehicle is a good choice, especially as you get into larger population centers and you are trying to find a place to park your vehicle. If you are going to be heading to more remote locations, a small SUV that offers four-wheel drive might be a good choice.
  • Since this island is a part of Greece, the rules regarding child car seats here are the same as they are in mainland Greece. That means that any child 15 months old or younger needs to travel in a car seat that faces the rear. If kids are older than that but less than four years old, they also need to ride in a car seat, but it can face forward. Beyond that age and up to 12 years old, children need to ride in a booster seat.
  • Most travelers who rent a car on this island will find out that they can take their vehicle to another country, but the first problem will be how to get the car off the island. Since restrictions and limitations regarding taking a vehicle on a ferry can be somewhat substantial, it is important that you discuss this fact with your rental car company before heading out on an adventure to another country from the island.
  • Something that is very important for visitors to this island to know about when driving is that there are quite a few mountain roads on this island. This is going to mean a lot of hairpin turns and a lot of narrow roads with sheer cliffs next to the road. While traffic is generally going to be quite light if you are not comfortable with this type of driving, this is something you should consider before getting behind the wheel of a vehicle.
