Transfers from Omalos & Samaria Gorge

Omalos is a high mountain plateau in the White Mountains of western Crete, in the Chania region, sitting at over 1,000 metres above sea level. It is best known as the gateway to the Samaria Gorge, one of Europe's longest and most famous walking routes. The small village and surrounding plain offer cool air, sweeping highland scenery, and a handful of welcoming tavernas.

Reaching Omalos is easiest with a private transfer booked in advance, especially for an early start on the gorge. Your driver meets you at the airport or your hotel, helps with your luggage, and drives you straight up the mountain road to the trailhead. The price is fixed and fully inclusive, agreed before departure, with door-to-door service and no hidden extras.

We run transfers to and from Omalos and the Samaria Gorge across Crete, including Chania and Heraklion airports, the ports, and coastal resorts. All prices, journey times, and distances for each route are set out in the price table on this page.
