Travel to Plakias - Carpooling

The most convenient way to travel to Plakias is by public bus.
While in summer there are plenty of busses the schedule can be very poor in low season and you might need a rental car or a taxi at least for the transport between Rethymno and Plakias.


For a taxi service from and to Plakias please contact our local taxi driver Zacharias: +30 693 2281995


To make your journey as much environmental friendly as possible we got here a small platform to offer or search for transportation (like carpooling) or to find other travellers to share a taxi or ental car.

Hey guys,

I need a lift from Heraklion or even Rethymno on May 12th to Plakias and one back to Heraklion on May 16th. I'm open to share the costs of gas or even a taxi. Hit me up! :)

Can pick you up anywhere, as long as it's not too out of the way. Any money you can chip in would be appreciated
