In Crete, the primary mode of public transport available is the bus, operated by KTEL (Common Bus Receipts Fund).

For long-distance journeys, whether from major cities like Chania and Heraklion to coastal towns or picturesque inland villages, you'll rely on the KTEL intercity bus service.

Two main companies operate these routes:KTEL Chania-Rethymno and KTEL Heraklion-Lassithi
