Visitors say
I had a great experience with the car rental service in Mytilene. The process was smooth, the staff was friendly and helpful, and the car was clean . It made exploring the island so much easier and more enjoyable. Highly recommended!
Nice cars, good service. We had a very pleasant experience with automatic Sandero, 70 € / day. Special thanks for the kind Lady who works in there.
About
IGFA Car Rental Mytilene offers visitors to Lesvos the freedom to explore the island on their own terms, providing a reliable fleet of vehicles from a convenient location in Mytilene, the island's vibrant capital. For travelers arriving at the nearby Mytilene International Airport or stepping off the ferry at the port, having a car at your disposal is not merely a convenience but a genuine necessity on an island where so much of the beauty lies along winding coastal roads and up into hillside villages that public transport rarely reaches.
With Lesvos spanning over 1,600 square kilometers — making it the third largest Greek island — the distances between its varied landscapes can be substantial. A rental car from IGFA opens up the full breadth of the island: the medieval streets of Molyvos in the north, the petrified forest of Sigri in the west, the thermal baths of Polichnitos in the center, and the pink flamingo lagoons of Kalloni. The staff are well positioned to advise on routes and seasonal road conditions, offering the kind of local knowledge that turns a good trip into a memorable one.
Whether you are planning a week-long circuit of the island or simply need wheels to reach a particular monastery, beach, or olive grove, IGFA Car Rental provides a practical gateway to independent discovery. Booking in advance is advisable during the summer months when demand is high and visitors from across Europe converge on Lesvos to experience its unhurried, authentic character.
Before you go
What to expect
Picking up your car from IGFA puts you within minutes of the port and airport, so there is no wasted time at the start of your trip. The staff can point you toward routes most visitors miss, and having your own wheels means you set the pace — linger at a beach, backtrack to a village, stop for lunch wherever looks right.
Best time to visit
Book well ahead for June through August, when demand peaks and the summer crowds arrive from across Europe.
How to get there
The office is in central Mytilene, less than a kilometre from both the ferry port and the airport road, making it a natural first or last stop on your visit.

I rented a 125cc moped from IGFA. The price was reasonable, and the bike was practically new. The support, however, was top-notch. I asked the young man in the office for directions to my Airbnb, and he told me to just follow him. Okay, it was only about a 5-minute drive, but hey, that was really nice. So, 5 stars for IGFA :-))

This incident happened when I rented a car. I told the gas station to put only 15L, but they filled the tank completely and charged me €53. and the gas guy told me to tell to the rental car company. When I returned the car, I explained to the rental company that we didn’t intend to fill it up since the tank was already more than half full. We only asked them to refund around €20, but they refused. I even asked to speak with the manager, but the staff said the manager would say the same thing and never gave us a chance to talk. In the end, we lost our money and received no help. Very disappointing experience.

Even though I had specified the pickup time in advance and paid beforehand, the car wasn’t ready when I arrived at the office. And although I had also indicated in the reservation that I needed a baby seat, I had to wait a full hour after the car arrived for the baby seat to be delivered. I was going to return the car the very next day anyway. It was a very bad experience. If I still have to wait, then what’s the point of filling out the reservation form and you asking me for a pickup time?

Several pros to rent from IGFA: 1) you will see their cars everywhere on the island. That tells you they are very popular, 2) They are multi-lingual including Turkish, 3) Their location is walking distance from the port, 4) In spite of the heavy customer volume, they were very nice. I strongly recommend them.

Great experience! The car was in excellent condition, very clean, and fuel efficient. The service was fast, professional, and friendly, with clear terms and no hidden charges. They delivered and picked up the car at the port right on time, making everything easy for us. I highly recommend them to anyone visiting Lesvos who wants comfort, reliability, and peace of mind for their transportation.

Very friendly employees, especially Stratos and Marinos. Thanks a lot. We rented a motorcycle and a car for each day. Prices are reasonable. They have a good web site if you want to reserve the vehicle before hand.

The car was +10 y/o but I haven’t had any problem. I have reserved and paid online before my travel otherwise you may not find any car on arrival. The service was very fast and they were very friendly. Thank you for everything.
