More travel suggestions, still one car rental choice!
Many of our
members have asked for more suggestions
in Crete. So, here you are some more beautiful places you can visit.
The famous
island of Spinalonga - a small island containing an old leper colony located
near Elounda and next to the quiet village of Plaka
Do you love
walking in the nature?? An ideal destination is the Gorge of Samaria. A 14km
gorge that descends almost 1200 meters to sea level through some of Europe's most
spectacular natural scenery.
Gramvousa -
an inhabited island, reachable by boat you can see there a splendid old
fortress and a lovely beach.
If you have
heard the stories of Greek mythology, you must visit The Lasithi Plateau. Here
you can find the "Zeus Cave" where according to greek Mythology the God Zeus was hidden as a child from his father.

Spring and the cities!!!!!!!!!!
We've got to admit
it! Everyone who lives in a town is very jealous of someone who lives in an
island. But, every Spring something changes. You see, this beautiful season,
even the cities change mood. Rent a car in Athens and visit Acropolis, Thiseio
and we promise you, you will meet many local people who prefer to drink a cold
ouzo after they finish work under the hot sun, instead to go back home. A rental
car in Thessaloniki will drive you very close to White Tower. Many friends and
families gathered together have lunch, drink their beer and the children enjoy
playing by the sea. In other places, as Kavala, Volos, Patras no one stays at home, some friends and a tasteful ice cream
is the best way to spend their evening. If
you are from the lucky ones you have booked very early your Summer holidays,
you will note that Greece celebrate with every way the coming of the Summer. The
team of www.direct2carrentals.com
is
always there hang out with you to explore any city you choose with the best
mood until the moment you are leaving!

15th of August, Greece celebrates!!!!!!!!!
If your Summer holidays starts on August, another reason to visit Greece is the celebration of Dormition of Virgin Mary . This day is considered the biggest religious event in Greece after Easter and Christmas for Greek Orthodox Christians.
It's a tradition to return to home villages, to connect with family, visit friends, and immerse themselves in the ancient rituals, culture, and practice of being Greek Orthodox. The villages squares are overcrowded because everywhere there are traditional celebration festivals.
If you want to live this experience, rent a car in Athens and visit Tinos, which is the most famous Church of Panagia Evangelistria. Many people visit these days that church in order to offer their prayers and votive offerings , to entreat a miracle of the Virgin Mary.
Rent a car in Rhodes and visit a small church, but overvisited at the top of a hill since many people during a difficult time of their life ask help from Panagia Ekatontapyliani and go there to thank her. For reaching there, you have to climb almost 340 steps but the view you will see from up there and the peace you are gonna feel inside you, will pay your tiredness.
Rent a car in Heraklion and visit the Monastery of Kalyviani. There you will pray with all the local people and afterwards you can take part in one of many cretan traditional festivals with local dishes, drinks, songs and dances at the surrounded villages.
For the end, we recommend you the Monastery of Panagia Soumela. Rent a car in Thessaloniki and drive at this worldwide famous monastery with many visitors every year, summer and winter .
Give yourself the opportunity to take a moment to pause and reflect. What better than starting your trip easily without stress for your carhire??
It is an experience you will always remember and an excellent service from www.direct2carrentals.com you will always choose for every next travel you will organize. And.. this is a bet we always win!

Happy Easter Monday!!
The team of
www.direct2carrentals.com wishes you a happy Easter Monday! It
is another occasion of great joy to the world. All of us thank God who has carried us safely throughout
the Lent Season. In the midst of all of our busy and noisy lives, these holy
days afford us the precious opportunity to slow down and spend some quiet
moments in prayer and reflection. Those values are at the heart not just of the
Christian faith, but of all faiths. From Judaism to Islam, Hinduism to Sikhism,
there echoes a powerful call to serve our brothers and sisters. To keep in our
hearts a deep and abiding compassion for all. And to treat others as we wish to
be treated ourselves. I hope we’re all able to take a moment to pause and
reflect. To embrace our loved ones. To give thanks for our blessings. May the
joys of Easter Day be very bright upon your way!
