Experience the world-famous
Santorini
Santorini is a destination where natural beauty, romance, and Cycladic charm come together in perfect harmony. Fira and Oia are stunning, but to truly experience the island, a Sync rental car gives you the freedom to explore beyond the postcard views. You can watch the sunrise in Perissa, enjoy the afternoon in Fira, and end the day with sunset in Imerovigli—without being restricted by bus schedules or availability of taxis.
Where you stay depends on the experience you want. If you're after iconic caldera views, staying in Oia or Imerovigli offers unforgettable scenery, but comes with a higher price and less accessible locations. For a more budget-friendly and authentic stay, consider Kamari, Perissa, or Pyrgos. With a car from Sync, you’re free to stay where you feel most comfortable, while still easily accessing the entire island.
During peak season, getting around Santorini can be challenging—buses are often full and taxis scarce. Having your own vehicle allows you to visit lesser-known yet beautiful spots like Emporio or the lighthouse at Akrotiri. You can avoid crowds by choosing your own time of day to visit places like Oia or Fira and make the most of your trip without waiting or rushing.
Santorini is more than just sunsets. From archaeological sites and volcanic beaches to traditional tavernas and excellent wineries, there’s a lot to uncover. With a Sync rental car, you can move at your own pace, discover hidden gems, and enjoy a side of the island that’s often missed by those relying solely on public transport.

Where should I stay in Santorini for the best value?
Kamari, Perissa, and Pyrgos offer great value accommodations that are charming and close to beaches and restaurants. They’re more affordable than Oia or Imerovigli and offer a more relaxed experience. With a car, you’ll be just a short drive from anywhere on the island.
Which beaches in Santorini are must-visit with a car?
The Red Beach near Akrotiri, the black sand beaches of Perissa and Kamari, and the quieter Vlychada beach are all unique. Many of them are easier to access with a car, and you’ll also be able to find parking or shade if you arrive early.
What else can I see besides Oia sunsets?
Visit the Akrotiri archaeological site, explore traditional villages like Emporio and Megalochori, enjoy wine tasting at scenic wineries, or catch a peaceful sunset at the Akrotiri lighthouse. With a rental car, you can visit these places without relying on fixed timetables.

Can the vehicle be delivered to my door?

Cars are available through Sync at convenient places near hundreds of locations in the city. Skip the lines at the rental desk and pick up your car at your hotel, residence or a nearby location to save time and hassle on your weekend or family vacation. Some Providers offer free delivery, while others charge their own delivery fee.
Can I get discounts when renting?
Many Hosts on Sync offer discounted rates for weekly and monthly bookings, as well as "early bird" discounts for trips booked a week or more in advance. Secure the best deals and lowest prices, from cars to SUVs, by making longer bookings at least a week in advance.
Occasionally, Sync may also send you promotional codes, discounts, and offers!
Can others drive the vehicle I booked?
Yes, other drivers can drive the car you book through Sync, as long as they have been approved for driving. The primary driver (the person who made the booking) can add additional drivers without any fees or extra costs. Only the primary driver can request to add drivers - Sync Hosts cannot do this for you. We recommend requesting additional drivers before your trip begins.
