Megalochori is located in the central part of the west coast of our island, only 8 kilometres from the airport and with little traffic it takes about 15 minutes by taxi from Santorini airport to Megalochori village. However, it is important to remember that Santorini is a small and very popular island and it can be difficult to find a free taxi here.
A reliable option is to book a taxi in advance online or by phone – taxi booking services and special aggregator sites serve orders around the clock, without holidays and weekends, all 365 days a year! In this case, the driver will meet you at the right place and take you to the selected address and the cost of a taxi from Santorini Airport to Megalochori will not change for you – regardless of the travel time, the number of passengers or luggage, possible waiting time or any other reason. You only pay according to the itinerary and you know in advance how much the trip will cost when you book.
For this trip, you have the option of choosing the right type of taxi for you, depending on the estimated number of passengers, luggage and other needs you have. For example, it may be a standard sedan, if you are traveling alone, not a very large group of friends or family; it may be that you need a minivan or even a small bus, if your group is large, and one or two passenger cars will not be enough. The cost of a taxi ride in this case will be adjusted according to the chosen class of car or minivan.

For example, if you’ve selected “Economy”, a more expensive “Comfort” taxi will arrive. You won’t have to pay anything extra.
At Kiwitaxi it depends directly on the class of car. For example, “Premium” cars and all minibuses must be booked at least 16 hours in advance.
