Find your Car
Choose a location, dates and get started!
Heraklion is the gateway to Crete and the most practical way to get to know it, along with the entire island, is with your own car. At JK Tours we give you a road-ready vehicle, with insurance and mileage included in the price and without tying money to your card. We are a family business in the area since 1992 and our work begins where the counter of a chain ends: in the personal relationship.
Car rental without a deposit in Heraklion
You find it more and more often in searches: car rental in Heraklion without a deposit, without a credit commitment. It is no coincidence. The large companies reserve hundreds or thousands of euros as a deposit at the time of pick-up, and the amount remains frozen throughout the entire vacation.
We don't. We don't ask for a deposit and we don't hold an amount on your card. Comprehensive insurance (CDW) with a waiver and unlimited mileage are included in the price you see, without any fine print and no surprises at the end.
It's a way of working that can only stand when you know your customers by name. That's why it operates here, in Crete, in a thirty-year-old family business.
Where do we deliver to you in Heraklion?
For areas outside the free zone, within the prefecture of Heraklion, there is a small charge depending on the distance. Ask us at communication.
Why do you want a car in Heraklion?

Starting from Heraklion, in a few minutes you are at the archaeological site of Knossos and in the city center with the Venetian walls and the agora. In half an hour you reach the beaches of Agia Pelagia and Hersonissos, while the northern road axis opens up the whole of Crete to you: west to Rethymno and Chania, east to Agios Nikolaos and Elounda.
The most beautiful beaches and mountain villages of the island do not have frequent buses. With your own car you can stop wherever you want, change your schedule at the last minute and experience Crete at your own pace. Get ideas from the our destinations and choose a vehicle from the fleet.
