Thrifty, Budget, Enterprise, Europcar, Avance, and Hertz counters operate at Aktion Airport (PVK) near Lefkada for convenient quick pickup after landing.

Auto Europe Israel collaborates with a wide range of car rental companies in Lefkada and all over Greece, providing you with a convenient option to choose a pickup and drop-off point from a network of stations spread across the island and nearby mainland. Key locations are available in the city of Lefkada, near the marina and the central bus station, as well as in the resort towns of Nidri and Vasiliki. For the convenience of those flying in, you can rent a car at Aktion Preveza Airport (PVK), about a twenty-minute drive from the island and the closest aerial gateway. Additionally, you will find stations along the island's main road and near popular hotel areas, allowing you to choose the most suitable location for your route and coordinate pickup or return at the genuinely convenient spot.
Operating hours vary between suppliers and different branches and are sometimes seasonal: longer hours in summer, with possible reductions or midday breaks in winter. Therefore, it is important to ensure that the hours of the station you have chosen match your arrival time—whether you are landing at PVK, arriving by ferry to Vasiliki, or crossing the bridge from the mainland. Occasionally, it is possible to arrange vehicle delivery outside working hours at an additional charge; it is recommended to provide flight information to track delays. If you plan to pick up and return at different locations, check availability and costs for one-way rentals in advance. Remember to bring a passport, a valid driving license (at least one year), an international driving permit if required, and a credit card in the driver's name for security. Paying attention to these details will ensure you receive the vehicle at the most convenient time and place for you.
To make the most of car rental abroad, we gathered four practical tips based on industry guidelines: insurance, fuel policy, vignette tolls, and vehicle return. Read, save, and enjoy a smooth and safe journey.
Ensure Suitable Insurance Coverage
Check what the basic insurance includes (CDW/TP), excess, deposit amount, and the possibility of excess cancellation. Keep documents and decide in advance whether to upgrade to extended coverage at the pickup station.
Understand the Fuel Policy
Full-to-full is generally preferred: receive a full tank and return it full to avoid refueling fees. Keep a receipt from a nearby gas station and refuel just before returning.
Check Vignette and Toll Requirements
In many countries, a vignette/toll is required. Check if the car is equipped with a sticker or charging device, how the billing is done, and if there are additional bridge/tunnel tolls on your route.
Document Vehicle Condition at Pickup and Return
Conduct a full scan, photograph damage, check fuel level, and note everything in the contract. Upon return, request written or digital confirmation of good condition to avoid unexpected charges.
