Mykonos taxi prices and buses: the official fares and timetables

In short

Taxis in Mykonos run on Greece's national metered tariff: €1.80 flag fall, €0.90 per km by day and €1.25 from midnight to 05:00, with a €4 minimum. The ranks are in front of the OTE building and at Fabrika, and two radio-taxi lines answer around the clock.

On Mykonos the taxi is metered, the buses follow the season, and between them they cover every night out. This is the full official tariff, where to find a taxi in Chora, and what the KTEL buses run in winter and in summer, taken from the national decree, the municipality and KTEL itself.

How much does a taxi cost in Mykonos?

Exactly what the meter shows. Mykonos has no local price list: its taxis charge Greece's single national tariff, whose current amounts were set by decision 147620/2026 of Greece's Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport, published on 18 September 2026.

All amounts include VAT at 13 %. The decree sets fixed prices for just three airport routes, none of them on an island, so on Mykonos every ride is metered.

If you ask the driver to wait for more than twenty minutes, the decree also allows an extra charge agreed between you before the ride, up to €40 an hour.

Where do you find a taxi in Mykonos Town?

At one of two ranks, or by phone. The municipality's ranks are in front of the OTE building, at the entrance to Chora from the port, and at Fabrika, on the far side of town, where the buses for the southern beaches leave.

No taxi waiting? The municipality lists two dispatch lines that answer day and night, 22890 23700 and 22890 22400; under the national tariff, a booked pick-up can add up to €5.65.

Which buses run in Mykonos, and from where?

KTEL Mykonos, the island's bus company since 1981, runs its lines from three terminals in Chora. The Super Paradise route is run by another operator, Idea Tours, to which KTEL refers.

The airport buses stop in front of the terminal, on the Arrivals side, and the Old Port stop is your link to the ferries at Tourlos (see Mykonos old port and new port).

What time is the last bus in winter?

Early: in winter the buses serve the island's mornings, not its nights. KTEL's timetable valid from 1 November 2026 runs these lines:

The afternoon bus to the beaches at 14:10 has no return listed, and the lines to Agios Stefanos, Kalafatis, Elia, Kalo Livadi, Panormos and the airport show no departures at all. After dark in winter, any trip out of Chora is a taxi ride.

Is there a night bus in summer?

In peak season, yes. The municipality says KTEL then runs to the island's most popular destinations until 04:00, but the 2027 timetable has not been published yet.

For a night in town you may need neither: WE ❤ MYK Club is within walking distance of the old harbour and Little Venice, in Mykonos Town. The beach clubs of Paradise and Super Paradise are the ones that depend on the bus or the meter, and landing late is covered in Mykonos airport to town.

How much is a taxi in Mykonos?

There is no fixed price list: every ride is metered on Greece's national tariff. The flag fall is €1.80, a kilometre costs €0.90 by day and €1.25 from 00:00 to 05:00, and the minimum fare is €4. Rides to or from the airport add €4, and rides that start at a port add €1.07.

Under the national tariff, a booked pick-up may add up to €5.65 to the meter.

Is there a bus to Paradise beach at night?

Not in winter: KTEL's timetable from 1 November 2026 runs the Fabrika–Paradise line only at 07:15 and 14:10, with a single return at 07:30. In peak season, the municipality says KTEL runs to the most popular destinations until 04:00; the 2027 summer timetable has not been published yet, so check KTEL's site before you plan on it.

Where is the bus station in Mykonos Town?

There are three. Fabrika, on Agios Loukas Square in the south of Chora, serves the southern beaches; the square behind the OTE building serves Ano Mera, Kalafatis and Elia; and a stop next to the Old Port pier serves the New Port and Agios Stefanos. The airport buses stop in front of the terminal, on the Arrivals side.

Do Mykonos taxis charge for luggage?

Only for heavy bags: the national tariff adds €0.39 for each piece of luggage over 10 kg. Other supplements depend on where the ride starts or ends, €4 to or from the airport and €1.07 for a hire at a port, on top of the €1.80 flag fall and the metered kilometres.

    Ano Mera and the quiet side of Mykonos

    Away from the harbour and the beach clubs, Mykonos has a second centre: Ano Mera, a village of 1,459 people in the middle of the island, grown around a monastery that the islanders consider their protector.
