The road on Santorini is not easy to drive, with many uphill and downhill slopes. It is recommended that people with less driving experience choose an automatic transmission car.

Could you please tell me about the road conditions in Crete? For example, from Chania to Elafonisi Beach, and from Heraklion to the southern part of the island. I saw on some travel guides that it's difficult to drive, but what exactly is difficult about it? We're two people traveling and have not many luggage, so we rented a small car, such as Fiat 500 or Citroen C1. I can drive manual transmission without any pressure in China. Is this enough to handle the roads in Crete ? Greece Q&A

When I rented a car on the 18th, the car rental company charged more than 700 euros in consumption (which was actually a deposit). When I returned the car on the 28th, I said it would be refunded within a week. Today, I checked and my credit card still shows more than 700 euros as "unaccounted". What is going on ? Greece Q&A

In summary, the schedule is too tight, I'm not sure how much time I have left to play, but the days are late in Greece, it's not until 8 o'clock at night that it gets dark, and it doesn't matter if you go late to places without tickets, it takes a long time to get to Meteora from there, whether it's from Athens or your itinerary from Meteora to Delphi, your estimated time will definitely be exceeded, considering that you have six people, you must stop in the middle, driving too fast is tiring and unsafe. Mystras needs to be repaired in the castle on the mountain and the monastery below, Monemvasia also has a castle on top of the mountain and a town crossing, they are all not small, they need a lot of time, I think each point a day is very rushed, relatively speaking, Delphi, Olympia and the Theatre are small points (although they are not small), your itinerary on the 14th is really impossible to do, you have to go from Monemvasia to Nafplion to Epidaurus and then go to Cape Colonna and back to the Temple of Poseidon and back to Athens, you basically have no time to shop, just drive. I really suggest you delete some points and enjoy the leisure of Greece～ ? Greece Q&A
