Why Not Just Take a Metered Taxi?
Walk-up taxis at SKG Airport are metered and legitimate. However, there are reasons many travellers prefer a pre-booked private transfer:
First, the metered price is unpredictable — traffic, time of day and night surcharges all affect the final fare. Second, there may be a queue at the taxi rank during peak arrivals. Third, drivers may not speak English well enough to understand hotel names or remote Halkidiki villages.
A pre-booked service locks in your price, guarantees English communication, and has a driver waiting for you — not the other way around. Read our full comparison →
