Your Heraklion airport transfer, handled
Rethymno, with its Venetian harbour, fortezza and long sandy beach, sits roughly halfway between Heraklion and Chania — an 80 km drive west of Heraklion Airport.

You travel in a private car with a vetted, licensed professional chauffeur — not a taxi. A name sign in the arrivals hall, real-time flight tracking and free waiting time come as standard, and child seats are free on request.

Frequently asked questions
How much is a transfer from Heraklion Airport to Rethymno?
Prices start €102. The total is fixed and all-inclusive with VAT, agreed before you book — no meter and no extras for luggage, traffic or waiting.
Where does the driver wait for me at Heraklion Airport?
In the arrivals hall of Heraklion Airport 'Nikos Kazantzakis' (HER), holding a sign with your name. Your flight is tracked in real time and free waiting time is included, so delays are never a problem.
How far is Rethymno from Heraklion Airport?
About 80 km west along the north-coast highway — usually 70 to 80 minutes door to door, depending on traffic leaving Heraklion.
Is a taxi or Uber a better way to get to Rethymno?
Uber's private-car service is not available in Crete. Taxis do serve the airport, but on an 80 km metered journey the final fare is hard to predict. A pre-booked private chauffeur gives you a fixed all-inclusive price agreed upfront, a name-sign meeting, flight tracking and child seats free on request — the safer bet for a long cross-island transfer.
What is the cancellation policy?
Cancellation is free up to 1 hour before your scheduled pickup; inside the final hour, the transfer is charged.
