Araxos is one of the simplest airports in Greece. You will walk off the plane, cross a short stretch of tarmac, collect your bags, and step outside. Your driver will be waiting directly at the exit with your name on a sign.
From there, it is straight into a clean, air-conditioned Mercedes with cold water ready. No delays, no confusion — just a smooth start to your holiday.
We track every flight into Araxos. Charter flight schedules can shift, and we adjust accordingly. Your driver will be there regardless of arrival time changes.
Public transport from Araxos is extremely limited. There is no regular bus service connecting the airport to tourist destinations. Some package holiday operators provide shared coaches, but if you are travelling independently, a private transfer or car hire are your only practical options. We recommend pre-booking to avoid delays on arrival.
Yes, this is one of our most popular requests. Ancient Olympia is located roughly one hour south of Araxos, directly on the route to Messinia. We can schedule a stop of 1.5 to 2 hours for you to explore the archaeological site and museum, then continue to your final destination. The stop can be arranged at a modest additional fee.
Costa Navarino is approximately 220 km south of Araxos Airport, a drive of about 2.5 to 3 hours. While this is a longer transfer, the route passes through beautiful Peloponnese countryside and can include a stop at Ancient Olympia. Many guests flying with charter airlines prefer Araxos over Athens for this reason.
