Paros car hire

There is no doubt that car hire in Paros will make your stay easier with much more fun. You can move freely through the island in much less time than public transport can offer and with all the beautiful places to visit the freedom of a car hire will come in handy. There are about three main roads on the island with many smaller roads that sometimes appear ‘out of nowhere’, which means you always need to have your wits about you. Roads are also very narrow in places with many sharp turns. Parking is no problem and Paros is one of the few busy islands of Greece that mostly offers free parking, leaving you with plenty of options to leave your car hire and go explore.
