Transportation
Buses
Public transport is the most economical option to leave the airport. The KTEL (Santorini Public Buses) company connects the airport with the central bus terminal in the town of Thira (Fira), departing from outside the departures hall. The journey takes approximately 15 to 20 minutes. The ticket costs €2.00 and is purchased directly from the driver.
From the main station in Thira, you can connect with buses travelling to other popular destinations on the island such as Oia, Akrotiri, Kamari, Monolithos, Vlihada, Perissa and Vourvoulos.
Check current timetables, routes and fares on the official KTEL website.
Rent a Car
Taxis
The taxi rank is located just outside the arrivals hall. Vehicles belong to the local cooperative and the service operates 24 hours a day. The estimated travel time to the centre of Thira is 15 to 20 minutes, with fares ranging between €15.00 and €20.00. It is recommended to agree the fare with the driver before starting the journey.
It is important to know that taxi demand is extremely high during the tourist season (especially in summer), which causes long waiting times. If you are travelling in high season, it is recommended to book your transfer in advance through private transport services or directly with your accommodation.
