Your Ithaca airport transfer, handled
Odysseus took ten years to reach Ithaca; you will manage it with one ferry — but note that the main port, Piso Aetos, is a lone quay on the island's west side with no town, no cafe and no taxi rank around it. Vathy, the tiny capital wrapped around one of Greece's most sheltered bays, lies a fifteen-minute drive over the ridge. Arranging that drive in advance is not a luxury on Ithaca; it is simply how the island works.
Aristevo, a new fully automated chauffeur platform, covers Ithaca like everywhere else in Greece: book in the app in about two minutes, see the fixed all-inclusive price with VAT before you confirm, and a vetted, licensed local driver in a private car meets your boat with a name sign. Ferries from Sami, Astakos or Lefkada are monitored, and free waiting at the quay is included.

Frequently asked questions
How much does the transfer from Ithaca's port to Vathy cost?
From €64 — one fixed price with VAT and everything else included, agreed in the app before you book. There is no meter and nothing to negotiate on the quay.
Where will the driver be when my ferry docks?
On the quay itself at Piso Aetos, holding a sign with your name — pickups at Frikes or Vathy harbour can also be arranged if your boat lands there. The sailing is monitored and free waiting time is included.
How far is Vathy from Piso Aetos?
About 7 kilometres — roughly 15 minutes over the island's central ridge, with the bay of Vathy opening below you on the descent. From Frikes allow around 30 minutes.
Are there taxis waiting at Piso Aetos? Any Uber on Ithaca?
Uber does not exist on Ithaca and the island's taxis number only a few cars, which do not reliably wait at the remote Piso Aetos quay. Travellers who have not pre-booked are sometimes left standing at an empty dock. A reserved private chauffeur at a fixed price removes that risk entirely.
Can I cancel free of charge?
Yes — cancellation is free up to 1 hour before the scheduled pickup. Inside the final hour the full fare is charged, since your driver is already positioned at the port.
