Frequently Asked Questions — Taxi in Sivota & Igoumenitsa

How much does a taxi from Sivota to Igoumenitsa cost? Taxi fares in Greece are not always metered for private transfers — most operators quote a fixed price per route. The Sivota to Igoumenitsa journey covers approximately 24 km and takes around 30 minutes. Contact Taxi Sivota directly via taxisivota.gr for the current rate, as pricing can vary by season and vehicle type.

How do I book a taxi in Sivota or Igoumenitsa? The easiest way is to contact Taxi Sivota by phone or through their website at taxisivota.gr. Pre-booking is strongly recommended during July and August, when availability across the region is limited.

Is there a taxi at the Port of Igoumenitsa? There is no permanent taxi rank at the port, but pre-booked taxis can meet you on arrival. If you are arriving by ferry from Italy or Corfu — especially on a late-night crossing — it is essential to arrange your transfer in advance. Taxi Sivota offers port pickup upon request.

Can I get a taxi from Sivota to the airport? Yes. Taxi Sivota offers private transfers to both Preveza/Aktion Airport (approximately 1 hour 15 minutes) and Ioannina Airport (approximately 1 hour 20 minutes). These are pre-booked private transfers and can be arranged easily through taxisivota.gr.

Is there public transport between Sivota and Igoumenitsa? Public bus connections in the area are very limited and do not serve all villages. For visitors staying in Sivota, Perdika or Plataria, a pre-booked taxi remains the most practical and reliable option for reaching Igoumenitsa or either airport.

How far in advance should I book a taxi in Sivota? During quieter months such as May, June, September and October, booking a day ahead is usually sufficient. During July and August, it is advisable to book at least 2 to 3 days in advance — particularly for early morning airport runs or late-night port pickups.

Do the drivers speak English? Yes. Lampros and Dimitris speak English and several other European languages, including Italian and German. They regularly work with international visitors and are well used to coordinating arrivals and departures.

Can I hire a taxi for a full-day private tour in Epirus? Absolutely. Taxi Sivota offers fully customised private tours across the region — including day trips to Parga, Ioannina, the Zagori villages and the ancient theatre of Dodoni. Contact them directly via taxisivota.gr for a personalised quote.

Is it cheaper to rent a car or take a taxi in Sivota? For a few key transfers during your stay, a pre-booked taxi is often the more convenient and cost-effective option — no fuel costs, no navigation stress and no parking to worry about. If you plan to explore multiple destinations independently, renting a car in Igoumenitsa gives you more flexibility.
