The area of Messaria (or Mesaria) is located in the central part of our island, only 5 kilometers from the airport, so if there is no traffic jam, the whole trip from Santorini airport to Messaria village takes about 10 minutes by taxi. However, it is important to remember that the tiny island of Santorini is incredibly popular and it can be difficult to find a taxi here quickly.
A convenient option is to book a taxi in advance by phone or online – taxi booking services and special aggregator sites work all day long, without weekends and holidays, all 365 days a year! In this case, the driver will pick you up and take you to the specified address and the cost of a taxi from Santorini Airport to Messaria will not change for you – regardless of the time of the trip, the number of passengers or luggage, waiting time or any other reason. The payment will be made strictly and only by voucher and you will know in advance, during the booking process, how much the trip will cost.
For such a trip, you can book the right type of taxi depending on the number of passengers, luggage, and other needs you have. For example, it may be the most common hatchback or sedan if you are traveling alone, in a small group, or with a family; you may want a minivan or even a minibus if your group is large and one or two vehicles are not enough. The cost of ordering a taxi in this case will vary depending on the class of car or bus you choose.

Booking a taxi from Santorini Airport to Mesaria is very simple: after choosing a suitable type of car, just fill in a small form and the order is ready! You need to specify the date, time and place of the meeting, your name and travel route, as well as leave your contacts: cell phone number and e-mail address. Almost immediately after submitting the order form, you will receive a confirmation email. Print it out or save it on your mobile phone and take it with you! The same letter with all the details and your contact information will be sent to your future driver, so he will be warned in advance about the date and route of the trip. You don’t even have to explain anything to him in person!
In addition, this option not only allows you to order a taxi quickly and easily, but also eliminates the mistakes that can easily be made on the phone. You do not need to explain anything to anyone: by selecting the delivery address, destination point, date and time, you will know in advance that the taxi will arrive exactly where you need it.
If there is a desire to eliminate all risk and avoid worry and unnecessary stress upon arrival, then online taxi booking is a much preferable alternative.
There are not many taxi cars on our island, so the aggregator services help. Uber doesn’t operate in Santorini, but you can use Kiwitaxi. They are the ones who will work with your order if you decide to use their online service.
You can also see our offers of individual transfers and contact our office directly.
The first thing to do is get a list of available cars and check the prices for the route you want to take. Both change throughout the year, depending on the season on the island.
Then you can choose the appropriate class and price of the taxi and proceed to make an order: you need to fill in a form with all the details and contact information, and then – check your email! All the details of the order and the voucher for the trip will be sent to you by email.
A taxi of your choice will be waiting for you. If for any reason your chosen taxi can’t come on that particular day and time, there will be a class upgrade – a higher class taxi will come after you. 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. If you want to book a “Micro”, “Economy” or “Comfort” class taxi, you must do so at least 24 hours in advance. In other words, it is better to book a taxi from Santorini Airport to Messaria in advance. Usually 2-3 days before the trip is ideal.
If there is not much time left before your trip and you need an urgent order, you can look at our offers for private transfers and contact our office directly. We will try to provide you with the right car at the right date and time.
When you book a taxi, you provide your email address. You will receive a confirmation voucher from Kiwitaxi. It will contain the booking number and full details. If you have not received the voucher, please contact customer service.
No problem! Flight tracking is also included. If your flight is very seriously delayed, contact the driver at the phone number listed on your transport voucher. Give your order number and a new pickup time. You can also report about flight delays to the support service.
The exact meeting point will be listed on your voucher. You will receive this by email shortly after ordering. If you are travelling from an airport or seaport, the driver will meet you with a personalised nameplate.
Great! Then you can check out our offers for private transfers and contact our office directly. We will try to provide you with a suitable car, minibus or even a large bus at the right date and time.
