I had a great experience with Centauro! The whole process was smooth—from booking online to picking up and returning the car. The staff were polite, efficient, and helpful, and the vehicle was clean and in excellent condition. I also appreciated the clear explanations about insurance and fuel policy—no hidden surprises. Highly recommend Centauro for reliable and hassle-free car rental!

I had an outstanding experience with Centauro in Thessaloniki! The car was in excellent condition, spotlessly clean, and performed perfectly throughout my rental period. The team at the Centauro office was incredibly kind, professional, and helpful, making the entire process smooth and enjoyable. What impressed me the most was how easy it was to extend my rental through their user-friendly website. Exceptional service all around—I highly recommend Centauro for anyone looking for a hassle-free car rental experience!

This was one of the smoothest car rental experiences I have ever had. Right on the web site the company proposed the best rental conditions at the most reasonable price without a trouble for the client to think about the amount of insurance deductible (also called excess), the size of security deposit and warry about whether they will accept debit card (which most people have) or will request credit card (which by far not all people may have). At the airport exit, the driver of a pickup courtesy bus was clearly visible. The pickup courtesy bus was clean and comfortable. The personnel in the office were helpful and kind. The car provided was new and even of a higher class than originally requested. After the rental car return, we were delivered to the airport by the courtesy bus.

I've been using Centauro in different countries for years and never had a single issue — always smooth and easy. But this time... what an amazing team! They made our experience 10x better. Super friendly, funny, and made us feel totally at ease. Out of all my Centauro rentals, this one was by far the best. Highly recommend!

Great service, guys very friendly and pleasant. Very quick, no queue was for us. Peugeot 2008 was just new - 1k km. Enjoyed. Close to airport, 10 minutes by foot or shuttle. 2nd time we use Centauro - and all very smooth.

Quality service and new cars at the best prices, with full insurance. I use Centauro every time I go to a place where their service is available. Deposit only for gasoline, if you choose for the premium rent.

Very good and fast! The guy who is working at Rhodes office is excellent… (don't remember the name, but 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 to him) Rented Car was new less than 2 thousand kms… Airport shuttle needed but you won't wait more than 10/15 min, easy to find. Thanks for everything ✌🏼

Very positive experience. I booked a Fiat 500 with full insurance directly on their website. Upon arrival, I was offered a free upgrade to an Opel Corsa. The car was brand new with only 2,000 km. I was only asked for a deposit to cover the full tank of fuel. When I returned the car, the unused fuel was promptly refunded. Thanks to the full insurance, I didn't have to worry about any potential damage to the car. Everything was perfect and the staff was friendly.

Depending on the method of payment chosen, different conditions apply for the deposit.
If payment is with a credit or debit card: Depending on the car group chosen, you must leave a deposit of between 900€ - 2100€ on your credit card to guarantee the excess to cover for any possible damages. To avoid this deposit you can choose our SMART cover. This deposit on your card will be refunded at the end of your rental if there are no new damages to the vehicle. In case of an accident or damages to the vehicle, you will be charged the maximum amount of the excess. For Portugal, a 100€ deposit will be charged to your debit or credit card to cover possible Via Verde toll charges. We do not accept prepaid cards, American Express, Maestro or Diners Club.
