Thessaloniki Airport to KTEL Makedonia Bus Station Private Transfers

The KTEL Makedonia Intercity Bus Station, on Giannitson Street in the west of Thessaloniki, opened in 2002 and is the largest bus terminal in Greece. Coaches leave from here to more than 40 destinations – including Athens, Larissa, Kozani, Kavala and Corfu – as well as international routes to cities such as Sofia, Tirana and Istanbul. Please note that buses to Halkidiki leave from a different station, KTEL Chalkidikis. If you are going to Halkidiki, a private transfer to Halkidiki takes you straight to your hotel. Continuing by train instead? See our transfers to Thessaloniki Railway Station.

The airport lies on the eastern side of Thessaloniki, so the transfer crosses the city – the route summary at the top of this page shows the exact distance and the usual driving time. Allow a little extra on weekday rush hours and during big events in the city.

Your driver drives into the bus station area and drops you off close to the departure platforms, then helps you with your luggage.

Arriving by coach and flying out? Your driver waits for you inside the bus station area at the time you have booked. You receive the driver’s name, phone number and vehicle details before your transfer.

Your driver chooses the faster of two routes depending on the traffic at the time: via the Thessaloniki ring road (Peripheral Road), or through the city along the main avenues. There are no tolls on either route, and your fixed price stays the same whatever the traffic.

Travelling with a group or lots of luggage? We arrange transfers between the airport and the bus station for every size of group:

• Sedans and minivans for up to 8 passengers, booked online in a minute.
• Minibuses of up to 18 seats for larger groups, on request.
• VIP transfers with Mercedes E-Class, V-Class or S-Class, on request – ideal for speakers and executives.

For multiple arrivals or an event schedule, contact us and we will coordinate every pickup with you.

• Book your return together with your arrival transfer, or add it later from the “My Booking” page.
• We recommend a pickup about 2½ hours before an international flight and 2 hours before a domestic flight.
• Early morning flight? Our drivers work around the clock, and the booking form shows the exact price for the time you choose.

Staying a few days in the city? Our drivers pick you up for private day tours to the most beautiful places of Northern Greece – with your own vehicle and driver, at a fixed price per vehicle.
