The main taxi stand is located just outside the port, next to the main KTEL bus terminal. Taxis are also available for arriving passengers at Naxos Airport and Naxos Port.
This page is based not only on official information but also on first-hand experience of living on Naxos and seeing how taxi services operate in practice.
Visitors sometimes assume that taking a taxi on a Greek island is always straightforward: get into the taxi, take the journey and pay the expected fare. In reality, the experience can vary.
For this reason, our advice is simple:
Before starting a longer journey, confirm the price you are expected to pay.
This is particularly sensible when travelling from Naxos Town to a distant village or beach, when travelling late at night, or when arranging a journey in advance.
The information below is intended to help visitors understand the practical reality of using taxis on Naxos.
The Naxos Radio Taxi telephone number is:
+30 22850 22444
The number is also listed by the Municipality of Naxos and Small Cyclades.
The main taxi stand is located close to the port, next to the main KTEL bus terminal.
This is the most convenient place to look for a taxi after arriving by ferry, although availability can vary depending on the time of day, the season and the number of ferries arriving at the same time.
If you already know where you are going, it can be sensible to arrange your transport in advance, particularly during the busy summer months.
Taxis are available for passengers arriving at Naxos Airport. The airport is close to Naxos Town, but the price of a taxi is not necessarily determined simply by the short distance.
If you are travelling from the airport to accommodation in Chora, Agios Prokopios, Stelida or another part of the island, confirm the fare before beginning the journey if the price has not already been agreed.
Taxis can be found around the main port and bus-terminal area. You can also contact Radio Taxi Naxos by telephone.
There is no single taxi fare that applies to every journey on Naxos.
The price depends on factors including:
your starting point;
your destination;
the time of day;
the distance;
the type of service arranged;
whether you are taking a standard taxi immediately or booking a private transfer in advance.
Based on our experience living on Naxos, we recommend confirming the price before beginning a longer journey rather than assuming that a quoted price from another journey will apply to yours.
For shorter journeys around Chora and nearby areas, the price will naturally be different from a journey across the island to a distant village or beach.
Some commonly requested journeys include:
Naxos Airport to Chora;
Naxos Port to Chora or nearby accommodation;
Chora to Agios Prokopios;
Chora to Agia Anna;
Chora to Plaka;
Chora to Mikri Vigla;
Chora to Kastraki;
Chora to Halki;
Chora to Filoti;
Chora to Apeiranthos;
journeys to the eastern and northern parts of the island.
For longer journeys, it is particularly important to establish the price before travelling.
A pre-booked private transfer can be useful if you:
are arriving on a late ferry or flight;
have children or a large amount of luggage;
want a driver to meet you at the port or airport;
are travelling to a destination far from Chora;
want to know the price in advance;
do not want to wait for an available taxi after arriving.
A pre-booked transfer is not necessarily the same thing as taking a taxi directly from the taxi rank. The service, booking arrangement and price may be different.
For visitors who prefer to arrange a transfer in advance, NaxosTransfer24 is one private transfer service operating on Naxos.

For a short, straightforward journey, this may not always be necessary.
For a longer journey, however, our advice is:
Ask the price before you leave.
This is especially useful if:
you are travelling a considerable distance;
you are going to a remote village or beach;
you are travelling late at night;
you are taking a taxi from the airport or port;
you are unfamiliar with the island;
you have been given a price by somebody else and want to confirm it.
A simple question such as “How much will the journey cost?” can avoid misunderstandings.
The bus is often the most economical choice for popular destinations served by the public transport network.
A taxi is more convenient when:
you have luggage;
you are travelling as a group;
your destination is not well served by buses;
you are travelling outside normal bus operating times;
you want direct transport from the port or airport;
you are staying in a location away from the main bus routes.
For more information about getting around the island, see our guide to buses and transport in Naxos.
If you believe that you have been overcharged or have experienced another serious problem, keep any available evidence, including:
the taxi's registration details;
receipts;
photographs;
booking messages;
details of the journey;
the date and time.

Yes. You can contact Radio Taxi Naxos or arrange a private transfer in advance.
There is no single price for every journey. The fare depends on the route and the type of service. For longer journeys, we recommend confirming the price before travelling.
That depends on your circumstances. A taxi is useful when you need immediate transport. A pre-booked private transfer can be more convenient if you want a confirmed vehicle and a price arranged in advance.
Do not assume that services available in Athens or other major Greek destinations operate in the same way on Naxos. Local taxi and pre-booked transfer services are the options visitors should investigate for transport on the island.
Naxos is a large island, and the distance between Chora and some villages and beaches is considerable.
If you are travelling a long distance by taxi, ask about the price before you set off.
That is the simplest advice we can give visitors based on our experience of living on Naxos.
Naxos taxis can be very useful, particularly when public transport is unavailable or inconvenient. But, as with any service when travelling, knowing the expected price and confirming the details of the journey in advance can make the experience much easier.
