Differences between shuttle buses and private Chania transport

Two of the most popular options for getting from Chania Airport to your hotel or other locations within the region are shuttle buses and private transport.

Shuttle buses in Chania

Many hotels in Chania offer shuttle buses, which you can use to get to/from your hotel or other locations, including Chania City and Chania Port.

However, a shuttle bus is not a private means of transportation. This means you will share the vehicle with passengers going to different destinations. As a result, the shuttle bus will make several stops to drop them off, which might lead to delays.

Private transfers in Chania

If you don’t want to share your vehicle with other travelers, you can book a private transfer in Chania or a Chania airport transfer with Ride & Hire. By doing so, you will share the vehicle only with your travel companions and avoid unnecessary delays.

Moreover, by choosing a private taxi transfer in Chania with Ride & Hire, one of our professional drivers can pick you up from any location throughout Crete and drive you wherever you want, including Chania Airport, Matala, Chania Town, the Archaeological Museum, Heraklion Airport, and other beautiful destinations.

How much does a Chania transfer cost?

The cost of transfer services in Chania depends on the distance between your departure point and final destination, and the type of vehicle you choose. For example, booking a private Chania Airport transfer doesn’t cost the same as booking an airport transfer by express shuttle bus.
