Corfu Port Car Rental — Car Hire at the Corfu Cruise and Ferry Terminal

Corfu Port car rental from Triple Seven delivers the vehicle to the port free of charge between 08:00 and 23:30, with no deposit and no credit card required. Corfu Port is a named point in the free delivery network. Rates start at €27.62 per day.

Corfu Port sits about 2 km north-west of Corfu Town and about 4 km from Corfu Airport. The port handles cruise calls, ferries from Igoumenitsa on the Greek mainland, ferries from the Italian ports, and crossings to Saranda in Albania. Every one of those arrivals lands within a short drive of the whole island, and a rental car turns a berth into a full day on Corfu.

Where do you collect a rental car at Corfu Port?

A Triple Seven representative delivers the car at Corfu Port at the agreed time, free of charge between 08:00 and 23:30. Corfu Port is a named free delivery point, so no shuttle transfer and no relocation charge apply.

Delivery replaces the rental desk. The vehicle arrives at the port at the hour set during booking, and the representative completes the rental agreement on the spot. Passengers walk off the ship or the ferry and drive away.

Three arrival types use the port, and all three work the same way.

• Arrive by cruise ship and take the car for the hours the vessel is in port
• Arrive by ferry from Igoumenitsa on the Greek mainland and take the car for the stay
• Arrive by ferry from Venice, Ancona, Bari or Brindisi and take the car on landing

Return mirrors collection. The representative collects the vehicle at the port at the agreed hour, checks it and closes the agreement. Passengers flying home return it at Corfu Airport instead, 4 km away, at no extra charge, because both points sit inside the free network.

Timing sets the only charge that applies. Deliveries and collections between 08:00 and 23:30 cost nothing. Deliveries outside those hours start at €20.00, confirmed at booking, which matters for early cruise berths and overnight ferry arrivals.

How much does car rental at Corfu Port cost per day?

Corfu Port car rental starts at €27.62 per day for a Type B economy car and reaches €38.50 per day for a Type N automatic. Every rate carries 24% tax and includes free delivery to the port, unlimited mileage, collection and 24-hour road assistance.

Nine price points cover eight car groups and a scooter.

The spread between cheapest and dearest measures €10.88 per day. An automatic costs €5.67 per day more than the equivalent manual, measured between Type A at €29.30 and Type A1 Auto at €34.97.

A single-day rental matters more at the port than anywhere else on the island, because a cruise call lasts hours rather than days. One day in a Type B car starts at €27.62, which is the whole transport cost for a party of four covering the island, compared with a per-person excursion price repeated four times.

Three costs fall outside the rate. Fuel consumed is paid by the renter and unused fuel is not refunded. Deliveries outside 08:00–23:30 start at €20.00. Hotel deliveries beyond the free network start at €20.00. Nothing else attaches: no deposit, no card block, no mileage cap, and no fee for a second driver named on the agreement. The full model list sits on the Corfu Car Hire page.

How does a cruise passenger rent a car at Corfu Port for one day?

Reserve in advance naming Corfu Port as the delivery point and the ship’s arrival time as the pick-up time. The representative meets the passenger at the port, and payment falls due on delivery with no deposit taken.

A cruise call gives a fixed window ashore, and the transport choice decides how much of Corfu fits inside it. A coach excursion visits one destination on the operator’s timetable. A car visits three on the passenger’s own and returns to the quay when the passenger decides.

Distances from the port make the arithmetic clear. Corfu Town lies 2 km away. The Achilleion palace at Gastouri sits about 12 km. Paleokastritsa is 27 km. Kassiopi is 36 km. A ship in port for eight hours reaches any combination of those with time in hand.

The booking sequence runs in five steps.

• Reserve through the booking form, naming Corfu Port as the pick-up and drop-off point
• Enter the ship’s arrival time as the pick-up hour and the all-aboard time as the collection hour
• Select a car group sized to the party, from €27.62 per day
• Present the driving licence and identification to the representative at the port
• Pay on delivery in cash or by card, in Euros, with no deposit and no card block

One rule governs an early berth. The free delivery window runs 08:00 to 23:30, and deliveries before or after it start at €20.00. A ship docking at 07:00 therefore agrees the earlier delivery and its charge at booking rather than negotiating it on the quay.

The restriction on boats applies in reverse for cruise passengers: the rental car stays on Corfu and does not board the ship, so collection at the port before the all-aboard time closes the rental.

Which ferries arrive at Corfu Port?

Corfu Port handles ferries from Igoumenitsa on the Greek mainland, ferries from the Italian ports of Venice, Ancona, Bari and Brindisi, crossings to Saranda in Albania, and cruise calls through the season.

The port is the island’s sea gateway and the reason a large share of arrivals reach Corfu without passing through the airport at all. Four traffic types share it.

Mainland ferries run the short crossing from Igoumenitsa in Epirus. That route carries most of the domestic traffic and links Corfu to the Greek road network.

Italian ferries arrive from Venice, Ancona, Bari and Brindisi across the Adriatic. Passengers landing from these routes often begin a longer Greek itinerary on Corfu.

Albanian crossings run to and from Saranda, a short hop across the channel. These are passenger services rather than vehicle routes for a rental car, because Triple Seven vehicles do not cross Greek borders.

Cruise calls berth at the cruise terminal through the season, putting passengers ashore for a fixed number of hours.

All four benefit from the same arrangement: free delivery and collection at the port between 08:00 and 23:30, no deposit, no credit card and unlimited mileage. A passenger arriving by ferry and departing by air collects at the port and returns at the airport with no relocation charge.

How far is Corfu Port from the airport, the town and the resorts?

Corfu Port sits about 2 km from Corfu Town and about 4 km from Corfu Airport. Gouvia lies 5 km north, Paleokastritsa 27 km north-west, Kassiopi 36 km north-east and Kavos 46 km south.

The port’s position beside the town places it close to the hinge of the island’s road network. The table lists approximate road distances from Corfu Port.

Two figures matter for a day ashore. The whole island falls inside 46 km of the port, and both coasts sit inside 27 km. Unlimited mileage means none of those distances reaches the invoice.

Do you need a deposit or a credit card to rent a car at Corfu Port?

No. Triple Seven takes no deposit and requires no credit card. No amount is blocked or pre-authorised. Payment falls due when the vehicle is delivered at the port, in cash or by card, in Euros.

Deposit policy carries extra weight for a port arrival, because a passenger stepping off a ferry or a ship has less flexibility than one arriving by air. A broker-supplied desk blocks a sum on a credit card in the lead driver’s name and refuses the rental where the card fails. That failure on a quay, with a fixed departure time, is a lost day.

Triple Seven removes the step. No open card is held and no balance is frozen. The card presented at delivery belongs to either driver named on the agreement rather than only the lead driver. Visa, Mastercard and Maestro are accepted, and cash in Euros is accepted at the same moment.

Three consequences follow for a port arrival. Card limits stay clear for the onward journey. Debit-card holders rent on identical terms. Cruise passengers whose shipboard account already holds a large authorisation carry no second block against the same card.

The reasoning sits in Corfu Rent A Car No Deposit: How To Save Money And Avoid Rental Stress.

What are the age and driving licence requirements at Corfu Port?

Drivers taking car groups A, B and C are at least 24 years old. Drivers taking every other group are at least 25. Both cases require a full driving licence held for a minimum of two years.

Licence acceptance follows Greek legislation and divides by issuing country. Original licences from EU member states are accepted as they stand. Licences issued outside the EU require an International Driving Permit alongside the original. That permit is obtained in the driver’s home country before travelling and cannot be issued at the port. Current cross-border rules are published by the European Commission on its Your Europe driving licence guidance.

The permit requirement catches cruise passengers more than any other group, because a ship’s itinerary crosses four or five countries and the licence rules differ in each. Carrying the permit for the whole voyage removes the question at every Greek port.

The two-year condition attaches to the licence date rather than the driver’s age. Additional drivers join the agreement at booking or at delivery, and an unlisted driver at the wheel voids the insurance completely. Cover also lapses for any driver under 21.

Age rules across the Corfu market are set out in Car Rental Age Requirements In Corfu: What Drivers Need To Know Before Booking.

What does the insurance cover on a Corfu Port car hire?

Third-party liability is included on every vehicle as Greek law requires. Accident damage is covered to €3,000 with the renter paying the first €150. Tyres, wheels, glass, mirrors, roof, interior and undercarriage sit outside the cover.

Cover divides into three layers with defined boundaries.

Third-party liability — mandatory and included

Damage caused to other parties is covered on every Triple Seven vehicle, because Greek law makes this layer compulsory. No agreement issues without it and no upsell attaches to it.

Damage waiver — €3,000 ceiling, €150 excess

Accident damage to the rented car is covered to €3,000 and the renter carries the first €150. A repair assessed at €950 costs the renter €150 and the insurer €800. A repair assessed at €3,500 costs the renter €150 plus the €500 above the ceiling.

Excluded parts — reimbursed in full

Seven parts fall outside both waiver policies and are reimbursed in full by the renter.

• Tyres, at every wheel position
• Wheels and rims
• Glass parts, including the windscreen
• Mirrors
• Roof panels
• Interior trim and upholstery
• Undercarriage, including the sump and exhaust

Six situations void the cover outright: driving by a person absent from the agreement, driving under 21, driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, driving against traffic regulations, carrying more passengers than the licensed capacity, and losing the keys or leaving them in a vehicle that is then stolen.

A police report is mandatory for every claim. Damage recorded without one receives no settlement. After an incident, telephone Triple Seven on +30 26610 99294 or +30 698 564 7280, remain at the scene and allow the police to complete the report. That sequence takes time, which is worth knowing on a day with a fixed sailing. Full wording sits on the Corfu Car Rental terms and insurance page.

Which car group suits a Corfu Port collection?

Type A and Type B cars suit couples and short day trips from the port. Type C, D and G cars carry ferry arrivals with hold luggage. Type A1, D1 and N automatics suit drivers who avoid clutch work on the hill roads.

Port arrivals split into two patterns, and the right group follows the pattern rather than the price.

Type A and Type B — the day-ashore choice

The Hyundai i10, Kia Picanto, Toyota Aygo and Mazda 2 measure under 4 metres and park in the bays at Saroko and along Garitsa Bay, 2 km from the port. A cruise party of two or four with day bags fits either group, and both start at the lowest rates on the list.

Type C, D and G — ferry arrivals with hold luggage

The Seat Ibiza, Peugeot 208, Nissan Micra, Renault Clio, Suzuki Baleno and Citroen C3 seat five and take an extra bag. A family landing from Ancona or Bari with a fortnight’s luggage belongs in this band, and the longer wheelbase settles the car on the coastal roads.

Type A1, D1 and N automatics — clutch-free on the climbs

The Toyota Aygo Automatic, Kia Picanto Automatic, Peugeot 308 and Renault Captur remove clutch control from the climbs to Gastouri, Lakones and Pelekas. Cruise passengers from automatic-dominant markets take these groups by default, and they clear first in peak season.

Scooter 125cc — one-day mobility for two

The Sym Symphony 125cc requires an A1 or A category licence and starts at €22.60 per day. It reaches Corfu Town and the near coast on a day ashore, with luggage limited to a day bag.

Bookings select a group rather than a named model. Where a group runs out, Triple Seven supplies a car of equal or greater value.

What can you see in one day from Corfu Port by car?

A single day from Corfu Port reaches Corfu Town at 2 km, the Achilleion palace at 12 km, Paleokastritsa at 27 km and Kassiopi at 36 km. Every corner of the island falls inside 46 km.

Three routes fit a day ashore, each ending back at the quay with margin.

The classic loop — town, palace, coast

Drive 2 km to Corfu Town, park at Saroko or Garitsa Bay and walk the UNESCO old quarter. Continue south to the Achilleion palace at Gastouri, about 12 km, then drop to Benitses on the coast at 10 km before returning. This route covers the island’s two best-known sights with the least driving.

The west-coast loop — Paleokastritsa and the ridge

Cross the island to Paleokastritsa at 27 km, where the bay splits into coves beneath wooded headlands and boats run to the sea caves. Climb to Lakones on the ridge for the view back over the bay. Return through Pelekas at 12 km. This route uses more of the day and rewards it.

The northern loop — corniche and harbour village

Follow the coast north through Gouvia at 5 km, Dassia at 8 km and Ipsos at 10 km, then climb the corniche past Barbati and Nissaki to Kassiopi at 36 km. The channel toward the Albanian mainland runs alongside for most of it.

One rule governs all three: build in margin for the return. Traffic through Corfu Town slows in the middle of the day, and a fixed sailing time leaves no room for a late run. Route detail sits in Best Scenic Drives In Corfu Island: 8 Stunning Road Trips For Coastal Views, Villages And Hidden Bays.

Can you collect at Corfu Port and return at Corfu Airport?

Yes. Corfu Port, Corfu Airport, Corfu Centre, Saroko, Garitsa, Kanoni, Mandouki, Alepou, Alikes, Potamos, Solari, the Bus Station, Gouvia, Marina Gouvion, Paleokastritsa and the company office all sit inside the free network.

Sixteen points make up the free delivery and collection network, and any pair works as a one-way combination at no relocation charge.

Four combinations serve a port arrival directly.

• Collect at Corfu Port after a ferry from Igoumenitsa, return at Corfu Airport before a flight home
• Collect at Corfu Airport on arrival, return at Corfu Port before a ferry to the mainland
• Collect and return at Corfu Port for a single day ashore from a cruise ship
• Collect at Corfu Port and return at Gouvia Car Rental delivery points for a stay on the northern coast

The port-to-airport pairing is the one that matters most in practice, because arriving by sea and leaving by air is a common Corfu itinerary. It carries no charge inside the 08:00–23:30 window.

Collections outside those hours start at €20.00 whichever pair of points is involved, which covers the early-morning sailings and the late-night arrivals the port handles.

Where do you park near Corfu Port and Corfu Town?

Park near the New Port on the northern approach, at Saroko on the western edge of the centre, or along Garitsa Bay to the south. The old quarter itself is walked, not driven.

The port sits 2 km from a town centre laid out on a Venetian street grid that predates the car. Lanes in the Campiello quarter narrow below the width of a modern hatchback, so driving into the core creates a problem rather than solving one.

Three parking areas serve a driver coming from the port.

• Park near the New Port area, the first option reached and the closest to the quay
• Park at Saroko, the square on the western edge of the centre, a short walk from the Liston
• Park along Garitsa Bay to the south, where the seafront road carries marked bays

Cruise-call mornings change the calculation. Ships put their passengers ashore across the same two or three hours, and the northern approach and the central bays fill together. Driving out of the area early and returning in the afternoon avoids both peaks.

Vehicle length decides the rest. Type A and Type B groups, under 4 metres, fit bays that a Type G or Type N does not.

Which documents do you present at Corfu Port?

Present three documents at delivery: the original driving licence held two years or more, a passport or national identity card, and an International Driving Permit where the licence was issued outside the EU.

Handover at the port takes minutes because no deposit process and no card pre-authorisation run alongside it.

• Carry the original driving licence for every driver
• Carry a passport or national identity card for identification
• Carry an International Driving Permit alongside a non-EU licence, as Greek legislation requires
• Carry the licence of any additional driver joining the agreement

Cruise passengers face one practical wrinkle here. Ships hold passports for immigration processing on some itineraries, so confirming that identification is available ashore before the call is worth doing at the time of booking rather than at the gangway.

Photographs and photocopies of a licence do not satisfy the requirement. Greek legislation calls for the original document. Payment completes at the same moment in cash or by card, in Euros.

What happens if the ferry or cruise ship arrives late?

Delivery is arranged for the revised arrival time when the company is notified. The rental period starts at the pick-up time recorded on the agreement, and collection delayed without notice attracts hourly charges.

Sea arrivals shift more often than flights do, because weather and port congestion both move a berthing time. Two obligations balance the arrangement.

Triple Seven meets the revised time when it is told. A telephone call or an email with the new arrival hour moves the delivery, and no charge attaches to the change itself.

The customer notifies the company of a delay in collection that does not stem from the vessel, because an uninformed late collection attracts hourly charges under the rental terms.

Two timing points matter at the port specifically. The free delivery window runs 08:00 to 23:30, so a ferry berthing at 05:30 needs an out-of-hours delivery starting at €20.00. A vessel arriving after 23:30 falls under the same charge, agreed in advance rather than negotiated on the quay.

Return timing carries the mirror risk on a cruise day. Building margin into the collection hour, ahead of the all-aboard time, removes the pressure from the final drive.

Can you take a Corfu Port rental car on a ferry?

No. Triple Seven vehicles do not board boats and do not cross Greek borders. A crossing to Igoumenitsa, Saranda, Paxos or Antipaxos runs on foot as a passenger, with the rental car left parked on Corfu.

The restriction is absolute, and it matters more at the port than anywhere else on the island because the ferries leave from the same quay the car is delivered to.

Two patterns work around it.

• Drive to Corfu Port, park, cross as a foot passenger and return to the car the same evening
• Return the car at Corfu Port at the end of the rental, then cross to Igoumenitsa and continue by mainland transport

The second pattern is the common one for a Greek itinerary that starts on Corfu and continues on the mainland. Collecting at Corfu Airport and returning at Corfu Port carries no relocation charge, because both sit inside the free network.

Excursion boats to Paxos and Antipaxos, and the sea-cave trips at Paleokastritsa, work the same way: drive to the departure point, leave the car, take the boat.

Automatic or manual for a Corfu Port collection?

Manual cars cost €5.67 per day less and cover the coastal roads comfortably. Automatics remove clutch control on the climbs to Gastouri, Lakones and Pelekas, and they clear first from the fleet in July and August.

The choice depends on which of the three day routes a driver takes from the port.

The coastal route north through Gouvia, Dassia and Ipsos runs flat and sealed, and a manual handles it without effort. The route to the Achilleion climbs through Gastouri village, and the west-coast route climbs the ridge at Lakones with tight bends and a drop on the seaward side.

Manual transmission delivers three advantages. The rate runs €5.67 per day lower. Engine braking controls the descent from Lakones toward Paleokastritsa bay. Availability is broader, because six of the eight groups are manual.

Automatic transmission delivers three others. Hill starts on steep gradients take no clutch judgment. Stop-start traffic around the town and the port on a cruise morning demands less of the driver. Passengers from the United States, Canada and Australia meet familiar controls while adjusting to right-hand-side traffic on an unfamiliar island.

Cruise passengers weigh one extra factor: an unfamiliar clutch on a day with a fixed sailing time adds risk that an automatic removes. The comparison sits in Automatic Vs Manual Car Rental In Corfu: Which Choice Saves You Stress, Money, And Time.

What happens if the rental car breaks down near Corfu Port?

Road assistance answers 24 hours a day on +30 26610 99294 and +30 698 564 7280. A vehicle that breaks down is replaced within 24 hours under the rental terms, and assistance is included in every rate.

Two obligations in the terms favour the renter: assistance runs around the clock at no charge, and a breakdown obliges Triple Seven to supply a replacement within 24 hours.

The port sits close to the company office near the airport, roughly 4 km away, which shortens response times relative to the far north or the deep south of the island.

The sequence after a breakdown runs in four steps. Stop the car clear of the carriageway. Telephone the assistance numbers. Give the location by the nearest village or landmark. Wait with the vehicle.

An accident follows a different path, because settlement depends on documentation. Telephone Triple Seven first, remain at the scene, and allow the police to complete the accident report. Damage recorded without a police report receives no settlement in any circumstance.

A cruise passenger facing either situation contacts the ship’s port agent alongside the rental company, because a fixed sailing time changes the priorities. Roadside handling is covered in Dealing With Roadside Emergencies In Corfu: A Practical Safety Guide For Drivers.

Which driving rules apply around Corfu Port?

Greece drives on the right. Seat belts are compulsory in every seat. Telephone use requires a hands-free system. Traffic fines incurred during the rental fall to the renter under the agreement.

Four rules govern most of the risk a visiting driver meets.

• Drive on the right and overtake on the left
• Wear seat belts in front and rear seats
• Use a hands-free system for every telephone call
• Carry the driving licence, and the International Driving Permit for non-EU licences, at all times

Three conditions are specific to the port area. The approach road carries freight and coach traffic on ferry and cruise days. Pedestrian volume rises sharply when a vessel discharges, with passengers crossing between the terminal and the town. One-way patterns around the port and the town centre change the route between an outbound and a return journey.

Driving on the right is the adjustment that catches British and Irish arrivals landing from a ferry, because the crossing gives no transition. Taking the first few kilometres slowly, before the coastal road opens up, is the practical answer.

The full rule set sits in Driving In Corfu: 10 Essential Rules And Local Tips For A Safer Trip, with hazard guidance in Corfu Road Safety Tips For Tourists: Drive Confidently And Avoid Common Island Mistakes.

When do you book a Corfu Port car rental?

Book as far ahead as the sailing or cruise date allows. Cruise-call days concentrate demand into a few hours, and fleet availability across the island tightens through July and August.

Port demand behaves differently from airport demand. A cruise call puts a large number of visitors ashore within the same window, all wanting transport for the same hours, so the pressure is sharp rather than spread across the day.

Three booking windows apply.

• Reserve months ahead for July and August, and reserve automatics first, because groups A1, D1 and N clear earliest
• Reserve weeks ahead for June and September, when supply holds and rates sit below peak
• Reserve days ahead from November to March, when demand falls and the fleet carries slack

Cruise passengers hold one advantage: the call date is known months in advance. Reserving against that date costs nothing, because no deposit is taken and cancellation carries no fee up to 48 hours before the agreed date. A cancelled call or a changed itinerary therefore costs nothing either.

Online prices change with demand without warning, so an early booking locks the rate before the curve rises. Seasonal detail sits in Best Time To Rent A Car In Corfu: Save Money, Avoid Sellouts, And Drive Stress-Free, and the pre-booking case in Benefits Of Pre-Booking A Car Rental In Corfu: Save Money, Skip Stress And Drive Sooner.

Which extras does Triple Seven supply at Corfu Port?

Baby seats, booster seats and GPS navigation units are supplied on request at booking. Additional drivers are added to the rental agreement. Every extra is requested through the reservation form or by telephone before arrival.

Extras are requested in advance because stock is finite and the vehicle is prepared before it reaches the quay.

• Fit a baby seat, giving the child’s age, height and weight in the booking comment box
• Fit a booster seat for an older child, requested the same way
• Add a GPS navigation unit, installed before delivery
• Add a second driver to the agreement, at booking or at delivery

Child seats matter more for a port collection than for an airport one, because families arriving by ferry often travel without their own. Supplying age, height and weight lets Triple Seven fit the correct seat class rather than a default unit.

Adding a second driver carries the sharpest consequence for omission, because a driver absent from the agreement voids the insurance entirely. On a day ashore where two people share the driving, both names belong on the paperwork.

Navigation options and their offline behaviour on the hill roads are compared in Best GPS Options For Corfu Road Trips: Smart Navigation Choices For Stress-Free Island Travel.

How does car hire at Corfu Port compare with taxis and shore excursions?

A Type B rental at €27.62 per day covers unlimited kilometres for the whole party. Taxis charge per journey and shore excursions charge per person on a fixed timetable.

Three options move a passenger off the quay, and each prices differently.

Shore excursions charge per person and follow the operator’s schedule. A party of four pays four times, visits the destinations on the itinerary, and returns when the coach returns.

Taxis charge per journey. A run from the port to Paleokastritsa covers 27 km one way, and the return restarts the meter. Waiting time at the destination adds to it.

A rental car carries one daily cost for the whole party and no per-journey charge. Unlimited mileage means a day covering the town, the Achilleion and Paleokastritsa costs the same as a day spent 2 km away. Free delivery to the port removes the transfer at the start.

The arithmetic favours the car decisively for a party of three or more, and it favours it on flexibility for any party size. Angelokastro, the ridge villages and the smaller west-coast bays sit outside both the excursion programme and the bus network. The wider case sits in Advantages Of Renting A Car In Corfu: 10 Reasons It Makes Your Trip Easier.

Why choose an independent car rental company at Corfu Port?

Triple Seven owns its fleet, writes the rental agreement and delivers the car to the quay itself. No broker sits between customer and supplier, so the price, the deposit policy and the insurance terms come from one company.

The difference reaches the customer at handover rather than at checkout, and a quay is the worst place to discover it.

A broker sells a reservation and passes the customer to a supplier that applies its own deposit rules, insurance upsell and vehicle allocation. A cruise passenger with six hours ashore has no time to resolve a card problem or argue an unexpected charge.

An independent operator sets one set of terms. Triple Seven states the deposit as none, the card requirement as none, mileage as unlimited, and delivery to Corfu Port as free inside the window. The company quoting those terms hands over the keys.

Four differences follow.

• Compare one price rather than a headline rate plus counter charges
• Skip the deposit block that ties up a card balance already committed to a shipboard account
• Speak to the company that owns the car when a question arises mid-rental
• Take delivery at the quay rather than at a depot reached by shuttle

Triple Seven maintains its fleet through experienced mechanics on Corfu and delivers every car cleaned inside and out.

What does a Corfu Port car rental cost across different trip lengths?

One day in a Type B car starts at €27.62. Three days start at €82.86. Seven days start at €193.34. Each figure includes free delivery to the port, unlimited mileage, collection and road assistance, and carries 24% tax.

A port rental spans a wider range of durations than any other, from a single cruise day to a fortnight following a ferry arrival.

The one-day column is the figure that matters for a cruise call. €27.62 covers a party of four for the whole day, against a per-person excursion price charged four times over.

Online prices move with demand, so these represent starting rates rather than a fixed tariff. A rate confirmed at booking is held, and cancellation carries no fee up to 48 hours before the agreed date. Cost-control tactics sit in Corfu Car Rental Without Surprise Charges: 10 Smart Ways To Avoid Extra Fees.

What makes Corfu Port a practical place to start a Corfu road trip?

Corfu Port sits 2 km from Corfu Town and 4 km from the airport, with the whole island inside 46 km. It is a named free delivery point, so the car meets the vessel rather than the passenger meeting a depot.

Three structural advantages make the port work as a starting point.

Position is the first. The port sits beside the town at the hinge of the road network, so a driver leaving the quay reaches the northern coast, the west coast or the south without crossing the island first.

Delivery is the second. Corfu Port is named in the free network alongside the airport and eleven points across the Corfu Town area, so collection and return work at the quay, and one-way movements between any of those carry no charge.

Flexibility is the third. Rentals run from a single cruise day to a fortnight following a ferry arrival, with no deposit taken and cancellation free up to 48 hours before.

Four elements complete the picture.

• Choose from eight car groups plus a scooter, from €27.62 per day
• Drive without a mileage cap across both coasts and the full length of the island
• Rent with no deposit and no credit card, paying at delivery in cash or by card
• Call 24-hour road assistance from anywhere on Corfu, included in the rate

Reservations start on the Book Your Car page. The full rate card and the complete free delivery network for Corfu Airport Car For Rent sit on the home page, and the island itself is covered on the Corfu Airport Rent a Car guide.

Corfu Port car rental — frequently asked questions

Do you deliver a rental car to Corfu Port free of charge?

Corfu Port is a named free delivery and collection point. Delivery and collection carry no charge between 08:00 and 23:30. Deliveries outside those hours start at €20.00, agreed at booking, which covers early cruise berths and overnight ferry arrivals.

How much does car rental at Corfu Port cost for one day?

One day starts at €27.62 for a Type B car, €29.30 for a Type A and €22.60 for a 125cc scooter. Every rate carries 24% tax and includes unlimited mileage, delivery to the port, collection and 24-hour road assistance. Fuel is paid separately by the renter.

Can a cruise passenger rent a car for the day in Corfu?

Reserve in advance naming Corfu Port as the delivery point, the ship’s arrival time as the pick-up hour and the all-aboard time as the collection hour. The representative meets the passenger at the port. Payment falls due on delivery, with no deposit and no card block.

How far is Corfu Port from Corfu Town?

Corfu Port sits about 2 km north-west of the town centre, a drive of a few minutes. Corfu Airport lies about 4 km south of the port. The Achilleion palace sits about 12 km away and Paleokastritsa 27 km.

Can I take the rental car on the ferry to Igoumenitsa?

No. Triple Seven vehicles do not board boats and do not cross Greek borders. A crossing to Igoumenitsa, Saranda, Paxos or Antipaxos runs on foot as a passenger. Returning the car at Corfu Port before the sailing carries no relocation charge.

Do you take a deposit or block money on a card?

No deposit is taken and no amount is blocked on any card. No open credit card is held. Payment falls due when the car is delivered at the port, in cash or by card, in Euros. The card presented belongs to either driver named on the agreement.

How old must I be to rent a car at Corfu Port?

Car groups A, B and C require a minimum age of 24. Every other group requires a minimum of 25. Both require a full driving licence held for at least two years. Insurance cover lapses for any driver under 21 years of age.

Do I need an International Driving Permit?

Licences issued by EU member states are accepted in their original form. Licences issued outside the EU require an International Driving Permit presented alongside the original, under Greek legislation. Cruise passengers carry it for the whole voyage, since rules differ by country.

What is the excess if the car is damaged?

Accident damage is covered to €3,000 and the renter pays the first €150. Tyres, wheels, glass, mirrors, roof, interior and undercarriage fall outside the cover and are reimbursed in full. A police report is mandatory for any claim to be settled.

What happens if my ferry arrives late?

Delivery moves to the revised arrival time when the company is notified by telephone or email, at no charge for the change. Collection delayed without notice attracts hourly charges under the rental terms, so a changed plan is reported before the agreed hour.

Can I collect at Corfu Port and return at Corfu Airport?

Both sit inside the sixteen-point free network, so one-way movement between them carries no relocation charge inside the 08:00–23:30 window. Corfu Town, Gouvia, Marina Gouvion and Paleokastritsa work the same way.

Can I pay in cash at the port?

Cash in Euros is accepted at delivery, and Visa, Mastercard and Maestro are accepted at the same moment. Card details registered during booking are charged when the vehicle arrives. No deposit is taken and no amount is blocked for later release.

Do you charge for a second driver?

No fee applies to a second driver named on the rental agreement. Adding the driver is mandatory rather than optional, because an unlisted person at the wheel voids the insurance entirely, including in an accident that is not their fault.

Is a rental car worth it for a short call at Corfu Port?

One day starts at €27.62 for a Type B car, which covers a party of four for the whole call rather than charging each passenger. Corfu Town lies 2 km away, the Achilleion 12 km and Paleokastritsa 27 km, so a short call still reaches two or three destinations with a car.

Where exactly does the representative meet me at Corfu Port?

The meeting point at the port is agreed at booking against the vessel and the arrival hour, so the representative is waiting when the passenger comes ashore. Naming the ship or the ferry route in the reservation lets the delivery be timed to the actual berth rather than a rough estimate.

Do you supply a map with a Corfu Port rental car?

A printed map of Corfu comes with every vehicle at no charge, alongside unlimited mileage, third-party insurance and 24-hour road assistance. Customers who prefer satellite navigation add a GPS unit on request at booking, fitted before the car reaches the quay.

Further answers sit on the FAQ | Frequently Asked Questions about car rentals page, and rentals in the capital are covered on the Corfu Town Car Rental page.

Which other Corfu locations and guides are worth reading?
