The car was an old Ford and consumed a lot of fuel. They tried to upsell insurance once. When returning the car, the staff just gave it a quick check without being too strict. During pickup, they provided a small card explaining that minor scratches within the card's area didn't need to be noted. For fuel, you return the car with the same amount as when you picked it up, no need to fill it completely.

After exiting the airport arrival hall, turn left and there is a row of car rental counters. Alamo is among them, sharing a counter with Enterprise. Opposite is the Vodafone counter where you can buy a SIM card with good signal, perfect for navigation in the Ionian Islands. It is very convenient to get everything at once.

There are three companies at one location, so it's a bit crowded and requires waiting in line. They gave me an X1, but the brakes made noise and the car was in poor condition. If you're willing to use other brands, you can get a new car, like a Toyota. However, I had too much luggage, and the X1 had enough space to fit three 28-inch suitcases!

Like: I rent a small car and they exchange it with a brand new one, slightly bigger, nicer and neat! The problem was that someone broke into my car and stole my bag with all my papers and money, causing a small damage on the key lock at the driver’s door. The guys at the rental showed me sympathy for my loss and they didn‘t ask for anything, solving me in this way, a huge problem! I‘m so greatfull about this and I will definetly rent from them in the future!
Dislike: Nothing. Everything was perfect!
