It is recommended to take a taxi outside the Arrivals hall of “Macedonia” Airport of Thessaloniki. Taxis take approximately 20 minutes to reach city centre depending on traffic. The tariff ranges from 15€– 20€. Payment should be made in cash. There is also a bus service operating 24 hours a day that links “Macedonia” Airport of Thessaloniki with the city centre. The bus route for the city centre is No 78 and it takes approximately 40 minutes depending on traffic to reach the terminus. In order to get to the MET hotel from there, you need to change from the terminus of the bus No 78 to the bus No 31 and get off at the 5th bus stop named “Fix”. The MET hotel is within a walking distance and is visible from the bus stop. The cost of the ticket is 0.80€ and can be bought at a ticket booth outside the airport with limited opening hours kiosks, or at the ticket machine in the bus (0,90€, small change is needed for that).

Cedefop is easy to access by taxi within maximum 30 minutes from any part of the city, the city’s suburbs and about 10 minutes from the airport.

In general, taxis are easy to find, at the airport and all over the city; taxis are blue-white and easy to stop in the street. Please don’t be surprised if other passengers are picked up along the way to your destination. Due to the low fairs that taxis offer, this is a common practice in Greece.
