We will be staying in a villa in Prines, just outside of Rethymno. Once we have our plans set on our flight times etc. we will share these on this page. Our aim is to provide all the information you need to help you plan your trip and ensure your holiday is as enjoyable and stress-free as possible. We recommend booking flights and accommodation separately, as Crete offers a wide range of fantastic hotels, villas, and Airbnbs that are excellent value. Package holidays often charge more for accommodations of lower quality, so booking independently allows you to experience the true Cretan style and culture-something we love and hope you will enjoy as much as we do! Accommodation We recommend staying local to Rethymno, as it offers a wide range of restaurants, bars, and accommodation, and is conveniently close to the wedding venue- Agreco Farm, and pre/post-wedding events. There are 2 airports in Crete, detailed below..

Flight

Chania Airport

Approximately 1 hour transfer from Rethymno. Flights from Manchester, Newcastle, Leeds and most London airports fly into both Heraklion and Chania airport.

Flight

Heraklion Airport

Similar travel time of around 1 hour. Flights from Manchester, Newcastle, Leeds and most London airports fly into both Heraklion and Chania airport. We’ve previously flown into both Chania and Heraklion, but both airports are similar in distance and just as convenient.

Travel Note

Travel

Getting to Rethymno Transfers from both Chania and Heraklion airports are straightforward. Options include: •Airport Transfers – Pre-booked services available for a smooth journey. •Taxis – Readily available at both airports and local taxis in Rethymno can be arranged at short notice for getting around locally. •Car Rentals – Ideal if you’re staying in a villa or planning to explore Crete. Transfers and taxis from the airports to Rethymno are simple to organise and depending on individuals travel plans, a number of group transfers could be arranged if groups are staying at the same accommodation. Your accommodation will also recommend local taxi firms for use during your stay.
