Good to use a Plakias firm. However this year we are again hiring a VW Polo from Autoway at exactly the same price you quote. Absolutely everything insured with zero excess. Used them (and Polos) for 10+ years and find Autoway super reliable and super helpful. Autoway head office at Rethymnon but have hire car facilities at both airports.

Plakias / Re: Flooding

Yes - detailed photos and video on Facebook show total destruction of road at upper entrance to large gorge. I suspect the road via the smaller gorge may be or become passable. Chania recorded 7 inches of rain in 4 hour. Plakias weather station down at moment but there has been an inch of rain per day for quite some time.

Just looked myself. It will be the dust blown from Africa which was forecast. Never seen it as bad as that on cams

Been keeping an eye on your local real time weather station and webcams and yes your weather does seem rather wet and cool. It is relatively mild here in UK and I suspect we are having similar temperatures as you are having. I assume there will be a fair amount of snow on the tops on Crete now. Overall probably more wintry with you than us right now.
Merry Christmas

Plakias / Re: Tourist Event in September
« on: August 12, 2017, 09:03:05 PM »
This event has still taken place every year so far. Always on the same date 27 September. So I assume that will indeed be the case this year.
