Age requirements vary by company (and even car type), so be clear on the rules before you book. Some suppliers in Greece may rent to younger drivers for an extra fee. If you fall outside the typical age range, simply uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to unlock the right options.
