Tickets and tools
Crete bus tickets and official tools
Fare products and sales channels belong to each operator, and they differ between the city networks and the KTEL companies. This guide points at the responsible pages instead of freezing amounts that change.
Buy from the responsible operator
Check the ticket or fare section of the operator that runs your journey. City tickets and KTEL coach tickets are separate products.
- Intercity corridors: the responsible KTEL company’s fare and ticket pages.
- Heraklion city: the urban operator’s ticket information.
- Chania city: the urban operator’s published guidance.
