Taxi transfer in Milos can prove to be more economical than car rental, especially for visitors who travel to a single beach in a day, or stay at their place of residence, such as Adamas or Pollonia, without visiting other destinations for one or more days. Also, for groups or families of 2-3 people, taxi transfers can prove to exceptionally economical, while providing more flexibility and comfort than other means of transportation.
Taxis in Milos can prove to be particularly helpful as they can, for example, take people to the center of Plaka, where there is no access/parking for private vehicles, most other modes of transportation do not reach all the way up to the center, and the visitor must ascend several steps to the top on foot. Also, unlike other means of transportation, Milos Taxis transfer the visitor right by the entrance of the Ancient Theater as well as right to the Catacombs parking lot.
The taxi rank is in the center of Adamas. There is also a second rank in Triovasalos, but it does not function during the summer season.
Taxis in Milos have access to all paved streets. Destinations with access from a dirt road, mainly on the east and west coast of Milos, are usually not served by taxis. The final decision on whether to accept a trip that requires driving on a dirt road is at the driver's discretion.
Indicative fares for most destinations are posted on the dashboard of each taxi cab. Alternatively, you may ask the driver to activate the taximeter, but you should know that in this case the final fare will probably exceed the posted rate, as immediately outside hubs such as Adamas, a double fare rate applies.
Indicative fare rates assume center-to-center travel, for example, from the Adamas town center to the center of Pollonia. Additional charges may raise the final cost of the fare, such as:
For example, let's say a simple fare from Adamas to Pollonia is estimated at €20. However, picking guests from the port, by appointment, with 4 luggage items, and destined for a particular hotel in Pollonia, will be at least €25.
If you want to call a taxi to get to a beach, you can arrange an appointment with the driver to pick you up on a specific time.
Alternatively, if the beach or any destination in Milos happens to have a restaurant or beach bar, you may ask the proprietors to call a taxi to pick you up.
Of course, you can always call for a taxi cab yourself with your cell phone.
ATTENTION! During the high tourist season (July-August, and especially from 1 to 25 August), waiting times on both the phone and for the taxi itself may be especially long.
