What to see around Arta by car

- Byzantine Arta – the Panagia Parigoritissa church, the church of Agia Theodora and the castle walls, all within walking distance of the centre.
- The Amvrakikos Gulf – lagoons, fishing villages such as Koronisia and some of the best bird-watching in Greece, 30 minutes south.
- Tzoumerka – mountain villages, the cliff-side Kipina monastery and the stone Plaka bridge, a scenic drive north-east.
- Ionian beaches – Preveza, Parga and the coast are an easy day trip west. See car rental in Epirus for longer routes.
Practical driving tips
- Arta's centre has narrow one-way streets; park on the ring road and walk in to the old town.
- Greece drives on the right. Typical limits are 50 km/h in towns, 90 km/h on national roads and up to 130 km/h on motorways unless signs say otherwise. Seat belts are compulsory and phones need a hands-free kit.
- The A5 Ionia Odos and A2 Egnatia Odos motorways are toll roads – keep some cash or a card ready for the toll stations.
- In winter, mountain roads in Tzoumerka, Zagori and Metsovo can have snow and ice. Check the forecast and road conditions before you set off.
- Drivers with a licence from outside the EU should check whether they need an International Driving Permit.
- Taking the car on a ferry needs our written permission – see the rental terms.
