KTEL Bus Transfer
If you choose the KTEL bus, you first need to take the local bus from the airport to the KTEL station. The ticket costs between €1.60 to €2.50 if purchased online, or €2.50 if bought onboard. The bus stop is located right outside the airport, with regular service but not 24 hours. From the KTEL station, the intercity bus will take you to Analipsi in about 20 minutes. The ticket costs €2-€4, and you can book it online or at the station.

Taxi Transfer
Taxis are available right outside the arrivals terminal. The fare for this journey is approximately €24-€30, and the ride takes around 15 minutes. Taxis in Heraklion are gray with a rooftop sign and can carry 3-4 passengers depending on the type of vehicle. Be aware of potential waiting times, which can take 20-30 minutes depending on the season. Not all taxi drivers speak English, which may cause communication challenges.

Rental Car Transfer
If you prefer to rent a car, it’s recommended to book online a few days in advance for better pricing. You can pick up your vehicle at the airport upon arrival. Prices start at around €70 per day, depending on the type of car. You will need your ID or passport, driver’s license, and a credit card.

Private Transfer
For maximum comfort, you can book a private transfer at least 12 hours before your arrival. The driver will meet you at the arrivals area and take you directly to the car. This service is comfortable, with English-speaking drivers, and costs approximately 30 to 40 euros, depending on the vehicle. The journey takes about 18 minutes with no waiting time. We highly recommend private transfer for comfort and speed.
