Licenses & Paperwork
To rent ATV Santorini models up to 150cc, a standard car driver’s license (Category B) is typically required. For high-power quads like our 525cc models, requirements vary by country of origin, but a full, valid car license is essential.
In Greece, you cannot ride a scooter using only a car license. To secure a scooter rental Santorini package, you must hold a valid motorcycle license (Category AM, A1, or A for scooters depending on engine size).
Because our buggies operate with standard foot pedals and a steering wheel, you only need a standard, valid automobile driver's license (Category B) to experience a buggy rental Santorini tour.
If your license is from outside the EU/EEA, you generally need an International Driving Permit (IDP) alongside your national driver’s license to complete your Santorini buggy hire or quad booking.
The minimum age to secure an ATV rent Santorini or buggy option is 21 years old, and drivers must have held their valid driving license for at least one full year.
When picking up your Imerovigli buggy rental, quad, or scooter, you must present your physical, valid original driver's license, your passport or ID card, and your reservation confirmation.
