SUV rental in Skiathos

The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Skiathos are: BMW X3, BMW X5, Toyota Rav4, Hyundai Santa Fe, Kia Sportage, Daihatsu Terios and others.

While selecting your preferred model of an off-road vehicle, please examine the rental conditions. In particular, those requirements that concern credit cards – when it comes to renting an expensive car, sometimes offices in Greece ask information about two credit cards.

Before signing the contract in the rental office upon arrival, check that the invoice figures match with figures in your voucher.

Once the vehicle is assigned, inspect it carefully before leaving the parking. Crossovers and SUVs are often used in tough road conditions, therefore scratches and other exteriour defects are inevitable. Due to this, it is important to check and specify all existing defects in your rental documents.

If you plan to use an off-road vehicle in the mountains, it is recommended to order snow chains. This will save you from unexpected incidents. Other important equipment in Greece are mandatory child seats for travellers with children. OrangeSmile.com wishes you a safe trip and green lights on the roads of Skiathos!

Previous hints
According to statistics, the majority of drunk drivers are caught during the night from Saturday to Sunday. If possible, inexperienced drivers should refrain from driving at this time.
Many roads in the country, as well as roads in small towns have no sidewalks despite the fact that those roads are busy. Therefore, pedestrians have no choice but to go along a busy highway together with motorists. Of course, this significantly complicates traffic.
Not all drivers accompany their maneuvers with appropriate light signals. It is quite rare to see a driver who turns on a winker before making a turn to another road. Such maneuvers should be expected every minute.

Enjoying SUV and sightseeing of Skiathos
The island is famous for its natural attractions. Must-see destinations of many tourist programs are Skotini-Spilia and Galaz-Spilia. Literally, their name can be translated as ‘a dark grotto’ and ‘a blue grotto.’ The internal atmosphere of caves fully complies with those beautiful names.
Above the city rises the Castro cliff, on top of which in the 16th century the fortress was built. According to rough estimates, there were about three hundred houses and at least 30 churches on its territory; only two religious buildings have remained to these days. One of the main distinguishing features of the island is an abundance of ancient monasteries. In the vicinity of the capital there is the Monastery of St. Charalambos.

An important historical object is the monastery of Evangelistria. In 1807, in its walls there was a significant event - the contemporary Greek flag was raised for the first time. In the north-western part of the island there is Kehriysky monastery; it is considered one of the most secluded and beautiful ones. The Monastery of the Kunistra Virgin would appeal to fans of excursions, as some of its buildings have been converted into the Museum of Byzantine Culture. Fans of natural attractions will also be interested to visit the Koukounaries nature reserve located in the southern part of the island.
