The beautiful Greek island of Limnos is definitely worth exploring, and the most sensible way to do this is by taking out some cheap car hire. Car Hire in Limnos will allow you to explore this volcanic island at your own pace, taking in the miles of sandy beaches, fascinating ancient settlements and traditional towns.
The capital of Limnos is Myrina and this is where you'll find most of the islands shops, restaurants, bars and attractions. Boasting a beautiful harbour, Myrina is the main port for the island and is overlooked by an ancient castle. There's an interesting archaeological museum in Myrina that tells the story of the island's ancient history with relics and ceramics excavated from the nearby ancient settlement of Polyohni.
You can do watersports on several of the beaches of Limnos, and there are also tennis courts and a golf course if you want to a rest from driving around Limnos in your hire car.
Having booked car rental in Limnos, you should explore the picturesque villages that lie outside the capital. Here you will find the ancient ruins of villages with temples, Roman theatres, spas and monasteries waiting for you to discover.
It will be an experience for you driving your hire car along the old fashioned cobbled streets along with whitewashed stone houses, imposing Turkish mansions and back street shops, selling local produce such as wine and honey.
The people of Limnos are very traditional and quiet but do welcome the tourist trade so you won't be made to feel out of place in your hire car!
Limnos is served by Limnos Airport - but many tourists also come in by ferry boat from nearby Rafina. Car Rental can be purchased at the airport or Myrina port but to ensure that you get the best deal, book online prior to your holiday at travelsupermarket.com.
