As parking can be difficult in the city, opting for a compact car can be advantageous. For families who need a little extra space, a minivan is a spacious yet somewhat compact option. As the roads can be bumpy and riddled with potholes in Greece, make sure the insurance covers every scratch and document whether the car had any such scratches beforehand.

All speed regulations are given in kilometers per hour in Greece, but, as the speedometer in the hire car is also set in km/h, that should be not a problem -- even for travelers not used to the metric system. Inside the city and residential areas, unless otherwise indicated, 50 km/h (31 mph) are permitted, 90 km/h (55 mph) on country roads and up to 130 km/h (80 mph) on highways.

Parking in Thessaloniki can be a challenge, so parking in a paid parking lot and taking public transport into the city is likely a better option. Street parking is also an option and is usually metered by the hour, so check regulations on the given signs. In Thessaloniki, there are also private parking garages that are more expensive but centrally located.
