A private transfer from Chania Town to Agia Marina covers 9.8 km (6.1 mi) in about 20 minutes and costs a fixed fare from €20 per vehicle, not per person.
One booking covers the journey in either direction: arrival from Chania Town, or the departure run back from Agia Marina - Chania at the same fixed fare.
Fares are per vehicle, not per person, and cover the whole car, so a family of four pays once. The price you see is the price confirmed on your voucher; it does not change with traffic, time of day, or a delayed flight.

The line is the road a driver actually takes from Chania Town to Agia Marina - Chania: 9.8 km (6.1 mi), about 20 min door to door. Pickup and drop-off are marked at the coordinates the booking engine quotes against, not at the centre of the nearest town.
Your driver comes to the door of your hotel, apartment or address in Chania at the time on your voucher. City pickups are door-to-door, so there is no meeting point to find.
Chania's old town sits behind the Venetian harbour, and most of it is pedestrianised. Chania's harbour lanes take no traffic at all, so where a hotel sits inside that zone the driver arranges the nearest point a car can legally stop, usually a few minutes' walk away, and confirms it before the day.
Tell us the hotel name as well as the street when you book. Old town addresses are frequently unnumbered and are far easier to find by name.
Journeys east to Rethymno, Georgioupolis and the north coast join the national road within a few minutes. Journeys west and south, towards Kissamos, Falasarna, Elafonissi and Paleochora, leave on slower roads that climb through the hills.
At your accommodation's entrance, or the closest legal stopping point when the address sits inside the pedestrian zone of the old town.
Your driver calls ahead if there is any doubt about where the vehicle can wait.
Give us the pickup address and a contact number at booking. Your driver waits at the agreed time and calls if the entrance is not reachable.
Tell us as early as you can if your plans change, so the driver can be rescheduled.
Agia Marina is a beach resort on the coast west of Chania, running along one continuous sand strip that also carries Stalos to its east and Platanias to its west. Agia Marina faces the islet of Agioi Theodoroi, a protected reserve for the Cretan wild goat that sits about a kilometre offshore and is visible from most of the beach.
The resort is built along the old coast road rather than around a village centre, so hotels, apartments and tavernas run in a line rather than a cluster. Almost everything is within walking distance of the sand.
Agia Marina is 29.7 kilometres from Chania Airport and close enough to Chania itself for the city to be an evening out rather than an excursion, which is the main reason people choose this strip over the resorts further west.
We drop you at the door of your hotel, apartment or villa anywhere along the strip, including addresses on the old coast road and those set back from it.
Agia Marina, Stalos and Platanias share the same seafront and their addresses can look alike. Give the accommodation name at booking so the driver stops at the right one.
Your driver comes to the door of your Chania address at the time on the voucher. Where that address sits inside the old town, which most of the harbour quarter does, the car waits at the nearest point it can legally stop and you are told which one before the day.
The drive runs west along the coast for 9.8 kilometres and takes about 20 minutes. Agia Marina is the second of the resorts on the strip beyond the city, and reaching it means crossing the suburbs that fill the gap first.
Daratsos, Kalamaki and Galatas pass in the first few minutes, then Stalos, where the continuous beach begins.
Agia Marina follows without a visible break. The islet of Agioi Theodoroi sits about a kilometre offshore and stays in view along this whole stretch, which is the surest way to know which resort you are in.
Twenty minutes for under 10 kilometres is a town-speed figure rather than a highway one. Nothing on this route is open road. From a city pickup the strip is close enough to treat as an evening out in reverse: guests staying at Agia Marina come into Chania for dinner, and guests staying in the city come out here for the beach. Nine point eight kilometres is short enough that the traffic flows both ways.
The city bus along the western strip is frequent and inexpensive, and Agia Marina is one of its main stops.
It runs along the old road and sets you down on it, so a hotel set back from the seafront still leaves a walk. From an old town address the walk to the stop comes first as well.
Your driver takes you to the door of your accommodation in Agia Marina - Chania. There is no central drop-off point and no walk with your luggage at the end. These are properties in the resort we transfer guests to regularly; if yours is not listed, it is still covered, so enter the name when you book.
Villas, apartments and private addresses in Agia Marina - Chania are served the same way. Add the address at booking and the fare stays as quoted.
The return leg is the same journey in reverse: 9.8 km (6.1 mi), about 20 min, and the same fixed fare from €20 per vehicle. Your driver collects you from your accommodation in Agia Marina - Chania at the agreed time and takes you straight to Chania Town.
Agia Marina back into Chania is the same 9.8 kilometres at the same fare.
Mornings eastbound are the slow direction here, as the strip empties towards the city. A pickup against a fixed appointment allows for that rather than for the distance.
Book both directions together and the return is held at the same fare. Switch the form at the top of this page to Departure, or select a return when you book.
Twenty minutes of driving, plus whatever deadline you are working to, plus a little for the old town end if that is where you are going.
Give us the detail at booking and the time is confirmed on the voucher.

Your driver waits in the arrivals hall holding a sign with your name on it. You walk out of baggage reclaim straight to the car, without joining a taxi rank or agreeing a fare on the spot.

Cancel at least 24 hours before your pickup time and you pay nothing. Plans change; the booking does not lock you in.
The vehicle carries your party and nobody else. It runs from the pickup point to your exact address, with no intermediate stops and no waiting for other passengers.
