The Worst Driving Experience
Recently I visited the land of the longest coastline. Greece is surrounded by Ionian Sea, Mediterranean Sea and Aegean Sea. It is definitely one of the most beautiful countries I have visited in Europe but it has one downside to it in personal view which is the driving. Driving is a nightmare in Athens. Me and my friends hired three used cars for the six days of our trip and we felt we were driving in Asia not in Europe.
The traffic is horrific. People are pushing for spaces on the road, some people drive through tram lines, which is terribly dangerous. The main downside are the road signs. The road signs are in Greek and if you don’t know how to read and speak Greek then you struggle to find your way round Athens or even the whole of Greece to be honest. The only things in English are the billboards advertising for erotic clubs and online casinos, what good is that for us?.
But if you go outside Athens driving is awesome. We drove to Delphi (a beautiful city located in the heart of the mountain 3 hours away from Athens) was certainly the highlight of the trip. The road leads through the mountains. It is a very dangerous road that leads to Arachova and then Delphi but it is definitely a most beautiful drive. While driving I had a deja vu of Nepal, driving through those beautiful Himalayas. My best driving experience compare to my friends was certainly driving in the island of Poros and Aegina. You have to catch a ferry to these islands and then drive to see the temples and other historical Greek sculptures.
Driving is certainly a nightmare in Athens but outside the city its a treat. You will just need time to get used to Athen’s traffic and road signals. We went in the month of May and it gets hot then so it was a good idea to hire cars other than take public transport.
We hired Audi A4 Saloon for our trip to Delphi and I thought I will write something about this car. I have always loved writing car reviews on cars which I have used on my holidays to let help you people decide which car is the best to drive in which country. Audi was a great drive, very reliable and economical as well. So my recommendation is definitely Audi A4 Saloon if you are looking to a hire a car in Greece.
