There are two types of car that are frequently hired in this part of Crete. Small economy cars are popular because of the narrow, winding streets and will provide manoeuvrability and easy parking options if you are planning on remaining urban. The other alternative is a more powerful SUV vehicle. Tougher vehicles tend to come in handy for outlying trips, as there are some steep hills and unpredictable terrain. If you are looking to drive on beaches then an SUV is also a good choice.

Speed limits are important anywhere but in a city where there is the possibility of roads being unpredictable, it is always better to take heed of them. In urban areas you can drive 30 miles per hour (50 km). When using the highway you can drive up to 56 mph (90 km). These speed limits are quite tame compared to many other cities and for good reason. So take it easy on your trip to Rethymno and avoid fines.

You should be able to find on-street parking with your car hire in Rethymno, although on narrow streets you may find it a tight squeeze. It is often best to park on the outskirts of the city and walk into the centre. In Rethymno, the Marina of Rethymno is the cheapest lot available and based approximately 500 meters from all the action. Parking Kentrou on Dimitrakaki Street is another paid parking option, with staff to watch your car.
