8Underestimating the Difficult Driving Conditions

The Greek islands have been inhabited for thousands of years. That means, humans built roadways long before the advent of cars. Before booking a car for each island you plan to visit, take a peek at Google Maps. This way, you’ll get a live view of what the roads may look like during your stay.

If you’re feeling adventurous, book an ATV. The four-wheeler will allow you to get around most of the island, but is also rugged enough to traverse over the dirt roads and small enough to fit into Greece’s famed alleys. Just make sure to have the right insurance and always wear a helmet.
