Patras

Patras City Office

Location information for Patras

Introduction

Patras is an old Greek port with a rich history. Already in Roman times it was an important settlement. The city is famous for the annual carnival, which is exuberant and colorful. The tomb of Apostle Andrew is also an attraction.

Population

The city has 225,000 inhabitants.

Location

Patras is located in the far north of the Peloponnese at the foothills of mount Panachaikon and at 215 kilometers west of the Greek capital Athens. The city is connected to Antirrio on the Greek mainland via a bridge. Patras consists of a higher situated old town and a modern part along the Gulf of Patras. Not far from the city center lies the swamp of Agyia, with over ninety species of birds.

Economy

Patras is an important harbor. Via the harbor many Greek products are shipped to Italy and other European countries. Following difficult economic times in the nineties, Patras is now flourishing, not in the least because of the presence of a university and an Institute of Technology. Patras is now a center of technology and IT companies. Tourism also plays an important role in economy. It's mainly the Greeks themselves who visit the city.

Airports

The airport of Patras is situated forty kilometers west of town. It's really a military airport but also used for civil aviation in summer months. The airport is easily reachable by rental car. From Patras you follow highway E55, which runs along the coast for most part. The route to Araxos Airport is clearly signposted.

Public Transport

There are two bus companies exploiting city lines in Patras: the municipal bus transportation company and the private company Ktel. Anyway, busses run irregularly and usually not at the times indicated by the schedule at the bus stop.

Traffic and Parking

Patras is a busy city and traffic can be chaotic. Two beltways have been constructed recently to alleviate the traffic in the center. Elsewhere in and around Patras work is also done to improve the infrastructure. In the city center you have to pay for street parking. Often there is also a parking limit, usually of two hours. Study the directions and signs well!

Hotels

In and around Patras there is a good supply of accommodation. In the city itself most hotels are concentrated in the center. There are also hotels along the beaches in the vicinity, like near Psathopirgos, east of town. Patras isn't a top tourist destination, but many Greeks like to spend a few days here in summer months. It's then recommended to book your hotel room in advance.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is EasyTerra Car Hire the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

 What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

 Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

 What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

 How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

 When will I get a confirmation of my booking?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).
