Local Booking Considerations

Kos is the easiest Greek island to drive - mostly flat, well signed and completely toll-free, ideal if it's your first time driving abroad. The one hill worth climbing is the winding road to Zia village for sunset. Kos Town's centre is car-free with parking on its edges. Peak season runs June to September, so early booking gets the best choice. Note that day-trip ferries to Bodrum can't take the rental car - plan that as a foot passenger, and use the car to find your own quiet beach every other day.
