Taxi and Transfer from Chania International Airport “Ioannis Daskalogiannis” 

Chania is a fascinating town that nestles on the Cretan shores in Greece. It is an ancient settlement, which can boast of having a saturated history and kept on most of the traditional architecture and landmarks since the times of the Turks and Venetians until today. If you wish to visit Crete, you should not fly to Heraklion Airport because Chania offers facilities of its own airport. A public transport, a taxi, or a transfer easily copes with transportation of passengers out of the airport into any place on Crete.

The Cost of Transfer from Chania International Airport

Pay attention that these buses run upon the established timetable (from 6.00 till 22.45). It may be not always convenient for passengers, whose planes land on different points of time. Moreover, after arrival, you will have to look for the nearest bus stop beyond the airport area.

Taxi

Right near the building of a terminal, you can see a taxi stand. The taxis are on service during the hours of landing or take-off of the planes only. It will cost you 30 euros to reach the city center. In addition, get ready to experience a trip on a rather old vehicle, which doesn’t provide any features of modern comfort.
