The process of a car reservation on OrangeSmile.com consists of 3 simple steps: (1) search by the dates and pick-up location, (2) car type selection, and (3) booking form completion. After the booking, you will receive a rental voucher at your e-mail address.
Before selecting a specific model to book, check your planned routes. If you are going to drive mostly within the Lefkada borders, choose a car of 'Standard' or 'Compact' types. In case you plan long cross-countries trips or mountain adventures, the more comfortable and powerful 'Fullsize' models would become a better choice.
If you need a car with an automatic gearbox, try to make a reservation at least a few days before the pick-up date, since confirmation of such models in Lefkada might be delayed for a day or two.
Upon the return of your car, carefully check that the total payment amount (invoice) is computed according to the original rental conditions.
We wish you 'smooth', secure and safe roads in Lefkada!
Rental process FAQ
Road planning is rather complicated in large cities. There are many dangerous turns, junctions, as well as one-way roads. Athens and Thessaloniki are known as the most difficult cities for drivers. They are really hard to navigate, so inexperienced drivers should be especially careful there.
In many large cities, drivers can feel the lack of usual road signs. Such signs as “give way” and “the main road” are quite rare, and this fact also complicates the orientation while driving. When approaching a crossroads, drivers should always slow down, regardless of the fact whether there is a road sign near the crossroads or not.
Crossroads equipped with traffic lights are another place, where drivers should be really careful. Do not start moving immediately after the green light appears. Local drivers have one really bad habit – they enjoy “slipping” at a crossroads when the traffic light has just switched to red.
