Why rent a car on Samos
Samos is quite a big island, so it pays off to rent a car or a bike and explore it. A car lets you see many places in a short time, from the town-beach of Pythagorion to the town of Vathy and the rest of the island. For unpaved roads and isolated beaches a Jeep is the better choice, so what you hire depends on where you want to go.
Samos Car Rentals in Pythagorion
Samos Car Rentals sits in the main street that runs from the boulevard of Pythagorion down to the large town-beach, the town of Vathy and the rest of the island. The office is easy to find and hard to miss. It is reliable, cheaper than most other car rentals on Samos I have tried, and the people there are spontaneous and kind. Vivi speaks English along with Dutch, Greek and German, so it is easy to explain what you want.
Cars, insurance and delivery
Samos Car Rentals has all types of cars, scooters and mopeds for rent, from simple cars and convertibles to big cars with 7 seats and Jeeps for the dirt tracks. The insurance gives you 100% coverage with 24-hour service, and there are no hidden clauses under the contract you sign. Your car is delivered for free at the airport, at the port where you arrive or at the hotel where you stay, and you can also pick it up in Pythagorion. When you rent a car you also get a handy map of Samos.
Vivi and the service
Vivi runs the office with her husband Vasilis and a few other people, and she comes originally from Holland. She lives with Vasilis in the village of Chora, just outside Pythagorion, and you recognise her at once by her blonde locks. Along with the car she gives friendly advice and tips on what to do on Samos: sights, beaches, villages and nature worth seeing. The service is quick and personal - once, after a scratch on a paved road, one call to Vivi settled it, since the car stayed fully insured and there was nothing to fill in.
