Why rent a car in Donousa
- Port pickup at Donousa Port saves taxi fares that often exceed one day of rental.
- Cyclades roads are generally good; an economy automatic is enough unless you plan dirt tracks.
- Book 1–2 weeks ahead for July–August — the best automatics sell out first.
- Check whether your partner includes CDW; third-party excess insurance is cheap backup.
