Taxis

Taxis are available 24/7 from the rank located directly outside the arrivals terminal. A trip to Kos Town takes about 30-40 minutes and costs approximately €35-€45. Fares to closer resorts like Kardamena or Mastichari are lower. It is advisable to confirm the estimated fare with the driver before your journey, especially during peak season.

Rental Cars

Numerous car rental companies, including major international brands (Hertz, Avis, Sixt) and local providers, have desks within the arrivals hall. Renting a car is a very popular way to explore the island. It is highly recommended to book your vehicle in advance, especially for travel during the summer months, to ensure availability and secure better prices.

Public Transportation

The public bus service (KTEL) is the most budget-friendly option. The bus stop is situated just outside the terminal building. Routes connect the airport to the main bus terminal in Kos Town, and also serve the popular resorts of Mastichari, Kardamena, and Kefalos. Timetables are seasonal and service can be infrequent, so checking the latest schedule on the KTEL Kos website is essential.
