Hello, Fellow Travelers! So, after all, my final ( I think ) decision for two weeks is: Santorini, Nafplio, Delphi, Meteora and Athens. Question: when we get back from Santorini, where it is better to rent a car: in airport or in Athens? After Meteora, I think is not very smart to drive to airport to return car and then back to Athens to hotel. I know we can return car in Athens, but isn't gonna be much more expensive? What is the best way?

If you're flying from Santorini to Athens, then the airport is the obvious choice for car rental. I don't understand your description of concerns for returning the car. If you return it to the airport, it's an easy Metro ride from there into Athens.

If you want to return the car in Athens itself, instead of at the airport, check before assuming it costs more. Often, it doesn't.
