Heraklion Airport to Rethymno Transfer
A direct private transfer from Heraklion Airport to Rethymno, Crete's third-largest town.
Travelling from Heraklion Airport to Rethymno
Rethymno sits roughly midway between Heraklion and Chania on Crete's north coast, typically around 80–90 km and 66–90 minutes from Heraklion Airport depending on traffic. It doesn't have its own airport, so most visitors arrive by private transfer from either Cretan airport.
A private transfer takes you directly to your hotel or address in Rethymno's old town or nearby resort areas, without a change of vehicle.
