Car Rental at Athens Airport (ATH): Driving and Parking in Athens
Athens is an extremely historic city and as such, was never designed for the heavy traffic that it suffers. As a direct result of this, driving in the very centre of Athens should be avoided at all costs. The roads around the city do not form any logical pattern and traffic congestion at any time of the day is by no means unusual. Also worth noting, many of the streets around central Athens are not signposted clearly and so it can be a nightmare to navigate this area.
Greek drivers are erratic to say the least and motorbikes manage to squeeze through the smallest spaces imaginable, often at high speed. If you need to change lanes, local drivers in Athens are reluctant to give way and road manners are virtually unheard of. Parking is also problematic and any available spaces soon fill up.
However, those hiring a car at Eleftherios Venizelos Airport will find it extremely useful to explore the area outside of the city. Close to Athens, highlights include Corinth and Nafplio to the west.
