Prices

Indicative, per route

Private transfers in Crete with Malakonis Bros take you wherever you want to go on the island: towns, beaches, hotels, villages, airports and ports. The ride is private, so you travel only with your own group, and our driver takes you door to door.

We are a family business from Kolymbari, in western Crete, and we have been driving these roads since 1979. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Where our private transfers in Crete go

Our price table lists more than 80 routes from three starting points: Kolymbari, Chania Airport and Platanias. They reach the beaches of the west, the old towns of Chania and Rethymno, the mountains and the cities of central and eastern Crete. Your destination is not on the list? Ask us for a price.

Why choose a private transfer

A private transfer in Crete is simple: no timetables, no changing buses and no waiting at a stop with your suitcases. We pick you up when you want, at the door of your hotel, and you can bring as much luggage as the vehicle takes. For groups of up to 20 people we send more than one vehicle, so everyone travels together.

Every vehicle has air conditioning and satellite GPS tracking, is cleaned by professionals and is checked regularly.

Private transfer from Chania to the west of Crete

From Chania and Chania Airport our routes head west: to Platanias and Agia Marina, to Kolymbari, to Kissamos and the port of Kissamos, and on to the beaches of Falasarna and Elafonisi. A private transfer from Chania is the easiest way to reach these places with your luggage, without changing buses or looking for parking.

We also drive east, to Georgioupolis, Rethymno, Heraklion and as far as Elounda, and south across the mountains to Sfakia and Palaiochora. Wherever you are going, the price is per vehicle, not per person, so a taxi or mini bus is often good value for a family or a group.

Our drivers and our fleet

We are a taxi company in Crete with 5 taxis for 1 to 4 passengers and 3 mini buses for 5 to 8 passengers. Our drivers are professional, certified taxi drivers who hold a special taxi driver card and know the roads of the island well. Every private transfer in Crete is planned around you: the pickup time, the stops you need and the luggage you carry.
