Pick-up Locations in Heraklion
Choose your pick-up point, compare local providers, and book in a few clicks — no credit card required, low or zero deposit.
Heraklion Airport (HER)
Picking up your vehicle at Heraklion Airport (HER) is the fastest option once you land in Heraklion. Local owners on Rent From Locals typically meet you in the arrivals hall with the keys ready, walk you to the nearby parking area, and run through the paperwork on the spot — no shuttle bus or off-site depot. Share your flight number when you book so the owner can track delays. From the airport you can drive directly to your accommodation in Heraklion, skipping taxi queues and saving on transfer fees, which usually pays back the day's rental on its own.
Heraklion City
Picking up in central Heraklion (Heraklion City) is the easiest option if you've already arrived by other means and want a car part-way through your stay. Owners typically deliver to your hotel, an agreed café, or the nearest open parking area — most won't charge extra for in-town delivery. From the centre you have quick access to the main sights, restaurants and beaches, and you can plan day trips out of town at your own pace.
Heraklion Port
Heraklion Port is a key arrival point if you reach Heraklion by ferry. Picking up your car right at the port means you can drive straight off the boat to your hotel — no need to queue for taxis or wait for buses with luggage. Local providers usually meet you near the main passenger exit; tell the owner your ferry name and time so they're there as you walk off. This is also a convenient drop-off if you're catching an outbound ferry at the end of your trip — many owners can pick the car up dockside.
Malia
Pick up your vehicle at Malia. Most providers in Heraklion can meet you on arrival or deliver to your accommodation, with no credit card required and a low or zero deposit. Confirm exact meeting point and timing with the owner once your booking is accepted — they'll usually message you within a few hours.
Hersonisos
Pick up your vehicle at Hersonisos. Most providers in Heraklion can meet you on arrival or deliver to your accommodation, with no credit card required and a low or zero deposit. Confirm exact meeting point and timing with the owner once your booking is accepted — they'll usually message you within a few hours.
