Heraklion Airport (HER) taxi transfer

Nikos Kazantzakis Airport transfers with Kiwitaxi

Book your ride in advance. A pre-booked car with driver meets you right on time and takes you straight to your hotel or villa. Easy, right?

HER sits close to central Heraklion, so reaching the old town is usually quick. Resorts like Hersonissos, Malia, and Rethymno are farther along the coast, so plan a bit more time for the trip.

With Kiwitaxi, Heraklion airport transfers feel simple from the first step. Your Heraklion airport taxi is confirmed before you fly, and you know who meets you and where. No cash guessing, no last minute searching outside the terminal.

Price and what is included

The price you see online is fixed at checkout. It already covers pickup, the trip to your exact address, taxes and tolls. If you add a child seat, a short stop, or extra-large luggage, the cost updates before payment, so you see it in advance.

Why travelers choose Kiwitaxi

• Meet and greet in the terminal with a nameplate, then a smooth walk to your car to go to your hotel.
• Arrivals include 1 hour 30 minutes of free waiting time, so delayed baggage or passport control is not a problem at all.
• Clear fixed fare with a fixed price, no taximeter surprises, and secure online checkout in seconds.
• 24/7 support and trip tracking, with simple changes handled by the team if your plan shifts.

Need child seats or space for a stroller, golf bag, or a kiteboard? Add the option during booking, and the final price reflects it.

Meeting your driver at the airport

The driver waits inside the arrivals hall after baggage claim, holding a sign with your name. You will also have the driver’s phone and chat contact in your voucher.

If baggage is delayed, tell the driver that you are delayed. Message them quickly, and they will stay informed while you exit the terminal.

You can also book a transfer from Athens International Airport or a taxi from Chania Airport with Kiwitaxi.
