From Heraklion Airport to Malia and Hersonissos: Stress-Free Transfers

For many visitors to Crete, the journey begins at Heraklion International Airport (HER). After a flight, every traveler looks forward to arriving quickly and comfortably at their resort. Two of the most popular destinations on the northern coast are Malia and Hersonissos, known for their lively nightlife, sandy beaches, and family-friendly resorts.

Whether you are traveling as a couple, a family with children, or a group of friends, the easiest and most reliable way to reach these destinations is with a private transfer. Versatours provides modern cars for up to four passengers and spacious minivans that can accommodate up to nine. This flexibility ensures that every traveler enjoys a stress-free start to their holiday.

Distance and Travel Time

The town of Hersonissos is located about 25 kilometers east of Heraklion Airport, and the journey typically takes around 25 to 30 minutes. Malia is slightly further, about 32 kilometers from the airport, and the trip usually lasts 30 to 35 minutes. Both towns are easily accessible from the national road, and a private transfer means you can expect a quick and comfortable ride directly to your hotel or holiday rental.

Why Choose a Private Transfer to Malia and Hersonissos

Direct Service to Your Accommodation

When you book with Versatours, your driver meets you at the airport arrivals hall and escorts you to your vehicle. From there, you are driven directly to your hotel, villa, or Airbnb. There are no unnecessary stops and no waiting around.

A Comfortable Start to Your Holiday

Crete is warm and sunny for most of the year. After a flight, it is a relief to step into a clean, air-conditioned vehicle where you can relax and enjoy the short journey. Versatours ensures that every ride is comfortable and smooth.

Always Ready When You Arrive

Flight times do not always fit into a neat schedule. Versatours drivers monitor your flight details so they are ready even if your plane is delayed. No matter the time of day or night, your driver will be there to meet you with a smile.

Professional and Safe Driving

All Versatours drivers are licensed, experienced, and committed to safety. Their knowledge of the roads and traffic conditions around Heraklion, Malia, and Hersonissos ensures that you will arrive without stress and on time.

The Right Vehicle for Every Type of Traveler

Private cars for up to 4 passengers: Ideal for couples, solo travelers, or small families who want a private and quiet transfer. Cars provide enough space for passengers and luggage while offering a smooth ride directly to the hotel or resort.

Private minivans for up to 9 passengers: Perfect for larger families, groups of friends, or travelers attending special events. A minivan keeps everyone together, makes travel more fun, and can often be more economical than booking several smaller vehicles.

The Versatours Advantage

What makes Versatours different is the focus on providing more than just transportation. Each transfer is designed to be simple, efficient, and worry-free.

  • Professional English-speaking drivers who are both welcoming and reliable.
  • A modern fleet of cars and minivans, always clean and maintained to the highest standard.
  • Transparent pricing so you know the cost before your trip with no hidden charges.
  • Meet-and-greet at arrivals, where your driver is waiting with a sign and ready to help with your bags.
  • Service at any time of day or night, ensuring peace of mind for every arrival.

Travel Made Simple for Families and Groups

Malia and Hersonissos are popular with families thanks to their long beaches and family-oriented resorts. They are also known for their lively nightlife, making them equally attractive to groups of friends. Versatours provides the flexibility that both types of travelers need. Families can book a minivan that has enough room for children, luggage, and strollers. Groups can stay together in one vehicle and begin their holiday the moment they leave the airport. Couples can enjoy privacy and comfort in a smaller car designed for up to four passengers.

How to Make Your Transfer Even Easier

A few simple steps can make your transfer experience with Versatours completely effortless.

  • Book in advance to secure your vehicle, especially during peak season in the summer.
  • Provide your flight details so that your driver can monitor your arrival time and adjust accordingly if there are delays.
  • Choose the vehicle that suits your group size, whether it is a private car for four or a minivan for nine.
