Rethimno (Rethymnon)

TransferPlan will transfer you from and to Rethimno as quickly, safely and comfortably as possible. Rethymno is located in the north end of the prefecture and in the middle of Crete, built by the sea and is a city with many faces. It combines the conveniences of a large city with the beauty of an old town. Both elements will mesmerize you.

Every visitor's first stop in the city should be Lotzia, a very well-preserved Venetian building from the 16th century that houses the public library and can be found in the old town. Lotzia is a place of great historical interest, as it used to be a forum for noblemen and other prominent figures, where they would congregate in order to discuss matters of public affairs and commerce. Another sight of great interest is the Fortezza in Paleokastro hill. The fortress dates back to the Venetian occupation and visitors are admitted through the central entrance, into an arcade that leads to the interior of the castle.

Despite being the third largest city in the island, Rethymno maintains a unique character that transports visitors back in time. With well-preserved features that date back to the times of the Ottoman Empire and Venetian occupation. Rethymno is very charming and has a very relaxed 'small town' feel, wrapped in the hot Mediterranean sun, it maintains a unique oriental atmosphere similar to the port cities of Maghreb and Anatolia. The city combines Orthodox and Catholic churches, mosques, Venetian mansions, arches and cobble streets, making it one of the most well preserved medieval cities in Greece. The harmony and beauty of Rethymno will evoke feelings of awe and will excite even the most demanding visitors. Definitely a 'no miss' from any traveller's itinerary. The feeling you get from this lovely town will be something memorable. You will travel through time and you will enjoy Crete at its best.

The airport took its name after the Cretan native and most famous Heraklion resident Nikos Kazantzakis, who left his mark in Greek history as a novelist and philosopher. Heraklion Airport is Crete's largest and busiest airport, also serving as a connection between Agios Nikolaos, Malia, Hersonissos, Stalida, Elounda and other resort towns. The airport has been operating since the late 30s and its annual number of passengers is approximately 5 million. The airport serves both domestic and international flights.

Heraklion Airport is operating in a renovated and modern space since 1971. The airport complex has been expanded in order to accommodate increased traffic and serve an ever-increasing flight network. Especially during peak season, the airport gets really busy, thus some sporadic delays are expected.
