There are quite a few parking lots, and you can basically park on the roadside, but the road is very narrow.

I will arrive at Santorini at 10:30 pm tomorrow, and the airport car rental shops will be closed, so I have booked a hotel to pick me up. The hotel is in Oia. I plan to rent a car locally the next day. Have you rented a car locally before? Is it convenient? Also, the hotel is in Oia. Is it ok to walk around Oia if I just want to take a look ? 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

Today we returned the car in Fira. We had agreed to return the car before 18:00 on the contract, but when we arrived at SIXT at 5:30, it was already closed. We had to walk to the next store to ask someone to borrow a phone to call at around 6 o'clock. They told us to park the car in the parking lot about 200 meters ahead, and then leave the car key under the seat without locking the car. It's too insecure, so I'm just going to leave the car there and return the key when the store opens at 9 o'clock tomorrow. Have you ever encountered this situation ? Greece Q&A

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

The road conditions on Zakynthos are still good, but there are many winding roads. I rented a Peugeot 208, and sometimes it's quite difficult to climb steep slopes. There are many one-way streets in the town. Now, the price for Shipwreck Bay and Blue Caves is 20 euros per person. I first went to the Potamitis place to take a boat. There were hardly any people on Sunday. After waiting for a while, a lady asked us if we were going. I asked about the price, and she said it would be 80 euros for two people because it would be a private charter. If we went with others, it would be 20 euros per person. I thought it was too expensive and there were no other people around, so I went to Agios Nikolaos. There weren't many people there on Sunday either. I asked and was told that if we didn't wait and left immediately, it would be 100 euros for two people. If we waited for others, it would be 20 euros. Luckily, after waiting for about fifteen minutes, a couple arrived, and we went together. It took about an hour and a half. It's best to arrive at the Blue Caves between 12-2 pm. I arrived there at nearly 5 pm, and the sun was shining from behind, so it wasn't very visible. I hope this helps you. ? Greece Q&A
