Buses on Lefkas

Click HERE for the web site of the Greek National Bus Company (KTEL)

Public transport on Levkas can be quite good or quite bad depending on where you are trying to get to, day of the week, and the time of day.  The  KTEL service down the East Coast between Lefkas Town and Nidri is fairly frequent but can get quite crowded at times, particularly on a dull day when everyone decides to go shopping.  Getting to the West Coast and inland villages can be more difficult as often there is only one bus per day and you run the risk of getting stranded there.  Never mind - a good way of meeting the real Greeks!

Very few buses run during the 'Siesta' (between approx. 14.00 and 18.00), and services are limited on Sundays and Bank Holidays.

The New Bus Station in Lefkada Town is located to the South of the Marina, approximately 1 kilometre from the town centre.

There are several buses per day to/from Athens, and the journey time is about six hours. In Athens the Lefkas bus operates from and to the Kiffisus Bus Station. A taxi between the Kiffisus Bus Station and Athens Airport costs about 35 Euros and takes about 40 minutes (depending on traffic). Taxi fares may be higher between midnight and 06.00am.

There is a public bus service between Athens airport and Kiffisus bus station. The route number is 93. It departs from outside arrivals at the airport, every 40 - 90 minutes depending on the time of day or night. The journey takes about 1 hour and costs about 3 Euros.

 The bus fare from Athens to Lefkas is about 30 Euros.
