How much is a taxi from Mykonos port to town?

Fees for a Taxi from Mykonos Port Arriving at the port of Mykonos, the travel cost with a Mykonos port taxi to the city centre will be around 29€ during the day and 35€ at night. Although taxis should always be available at the port, it is advised to book your taxi in advance.



In 2026, a standard taxi from the Mykonos New Port (Tourlos) to Mykonos Town (Chora) typically costs between €15 and €25, depending on the time of day and the amount of luggage. It is important to know that there are very few licensed taxis on the island (only about 35 total), so they can be extremely difficult to find upon arrival unless you have pre-booked. The journey is very short, taking only about 5 to 10 minutes to cover the 2-3 kilometer distance. Because of the taxi shortage, many travelers opt for the SeaBus, which runs every 30 minutes and costs only €2 per person, dropping you right at the Old Port in the heart of town. Alternatively, private transfer services and luxury vans are plentiful but significantly more expensive, often starting at €40 to €60 for the same short trip. If you choose a standard taxi, always confirm the price with the driver before getting in, as they rarely use meters for port-to-town transfers during the busy summer season, preferring to use "fixed" rates that reflect the high demand from cruise and ferry passengers.
