This is the perfect option for those who want to enjoy the best balance of convenience and shorter journey times as fewer drop offs are made en route.
Private Transfers
Our Chania Airport taxi transfers are very similar to catching a public taxi at the terminal, in that you travel in one vehicle that is just for the use of you and your group. However, the difference by by pre-booking is that you guarantee there will a car ready and waiting for you when you land. So all that's left for you and your travelling companions to do once you've arrived in Chania, is find your waiting driver, hop into your car, and set off when you're ready.
