From Afissos to Volos and Thessaloniki by Bus

The Question:

We need to get from Afissos to Volos and then on to Thessaloniki airport on Friday 3rd October for a flight at aproximately 2pm. Can you advise if we can get a bus from Afissos to Volos and then on to Thessaloniki airport and if so, any idea of times and cost?
Thank you


The Answer:

Hello!
In order to reach Volos from Afissos, you can use the suburban bus KTEL. The first departure of the date that also suits your case is at 07.00 and the route to Volos is about 50 minutes. From Volos you can catch the 08.00 bus to Thessaloniki, and within 3 hours you will have arrived at your destination. From there you can either pick a taxi or take the city bus to the airport (distnace of 45 minutes) and you will have arrived in time for your flight at the Thessaloniki International airport.
Information regarding costs is actually not available online, and since it is subject to change at any time, it is better to contact the bus company KTEL so as to get informed.

From Kalampaka to Olympia

The Question:

Hi,
Is it possible to leave Kalambaka by bus in the morning and stay in Olympia that night. If not, where is a good place to stay in between these two cities.
Thank you.
Suzanne


The Answer:

Hello Suzanne!
If you start from Kalampaka, then you will have to reach Ioannina first by bus and from there change to another bus, which will take you to Patras. From Patras you will need to change buses again and take the one to Olympia. Since the whole route is approximately 6 hours without the stops and the bus changes, you can simply imagine that it is a long and tiring trip. As a result I would propose to you to stay in Patras for one night and leave the next day. Patras is actually the gate of Greece to the West, since it is the biggest port of Greece that connects it with Italy. It is nice city, easy to walk through and with lots of options.
Hope I have helped you!

The phone number of the bus station in Igoumenitsa is +30 26650 99300, the one in Ioannina is +30 26510 31070, the one in Volos is +30 24210 33254.

Buses from Athens to Agios Constantinos

The Question:

Sometimes traveling in Greece really is a puzzle. Since the ktel.org site is down there isn´t a chance to get any information about busses leaving from Terminal B (Kifissou) to Agios Constantinos. Is there? Is it possible to get these informations from somewhere else? I am looking for the bus schedule for august/september 2008.
Thanks
Eddi

The Answer:

Hello Eddi!
This is unfortunately true... But I will try to help as much as I can!
First of all, buses departing to Agios Constantinos leave from the suburban bus station KTEL Liosion which is at 260 Liosion str. in the area of Kato Patissia. Besides that, unfortunately bus schedules are not published anywhere officialy since they change quite often. To find out the scheduled bus itineraries though, you can call at the information desk of Liosion Suburban Bus Station (0030 210 8317109) and ask specifically about the times and prices.
