Taxis at Rhodes Airport: rank, fares, how it works

Licensed taxis wait at the rank in front of Arrivals at Terminal 1 of Rhodes Airport, as the operator states. The national taxi tariff set by ministerial decision in June 2022 applies on Rhodes as everywhere in Greece: €1.80 flag fall, €0.90 per kilometre on tariff 1 and €1.25 per kilometre on tariff 2, which applies between midnight and 05:00 and outside the taxi's home district. The minimum fare is €4.00, every journey to or from an airport carries a surcharge of €4.00, pick-ups at ports add €1.07, and each bag over 10 kg adds €0.39.

For the usual resort journeys drivers at Rhodes Airport work with flat prices shown on fare signs, not with a figure read from the meter. No official fare table for Rhodes Airport is published online: the only list described as official that we found dates from 2022 and is out of date. The prices in the table below are therefore guide values recorded from fare signs during 2026. Ask the driver for the total before the luggage goes into the boot, and say at the start if you want to pay by card, which taxis in Greece have had to accept since April 2024.

A worked example shows why the meter matters less than the sign. On tariff 1 the 14 km from Rhodes Airport to Rhodes Town come to €1.80 plus 14 × €0.90 plus the €4.00 airport surcharge, about €18.40 before luggage and waiting time. The flat prices actually quoted for the same journey were about €27 to €35 in 2026. Passengers are entitled to ask for the meter; in practice most accept the flat price, and those who want certainty book a transfer at a fixed price in advance.

Taxi or transfer

Taxi or private transfer from Rhodes Airport?

Certainty is the main difference: a pre-booked transfer from Rhodes Airport is confirmed at a fixed price before you travel, while the price of a taxi from the rank is settled with the driver on the spot. For Kremasti, Ialyssos and Ixia, a few minutes from the terminal, the rank is the simple choice. For Lindos, Pefkos and Kiotari, about an hour away, and for arrivals after midnight when tariff 2 applies, a written price removes the guesswork.

Groups and families gain most from booking ahead. A standard taxi on Rhodes carries up to four passengers with four pieces of luggage according to the local taxi cooperative, so a party of five or six needs two cars from the rank or one pre-booked minivan. Child seats can be requested with a transfer when booking; taxis waiting at the rank do not normally carry them.

Travellers heading for a ferry should allow a margin. The harbours of Rhodes Town are about 15 km and 20 minutes from Rhodes Airport, and boats for Symi and for Marmaris in Turkey do not all leave from the same quay; the quay is named on the ferry ticket. Give the driver the name of the ship or the quay, and for Marmaris allow extra time for passport control before boarding.

Distances and journey times in the table come from the published figures of the local taxi cooperative and assume normal traffic; where the cooperative gives no figure the table says so. The fare ranges are wide because the recorded fare signs differ between locations. A range is for one standard taxi, not a price per person.

Economy

A saloon car for up to three or four passengers with luggage: the usual choice for couples heading from Rhodes Airport to Rhodes Town, Ixia or Faliraki.

Minivan

A vehicle for up to seven or eight passengers with luggage, which replaces two taxis from the rank for families and groups travelling to Kolymbia, Lindos or Pefkos.

Minibus

For larger parties travelling together from Rhodes Airport to a villa or a wedding venue; book well ahead for July and August.

  3. Confirm the fixed price and pay as shown; the confirmation with the meeting point arrives by e-mail.
