- Routes on the island of Crete: The websites e-ktel.com provides details for routes departing from Chania and Rethymno while ktelherlas.gr focuses on routes from Heraklion. However, both online resources are inconvenient to navigate and difficult to rely on for accurate information. While bus transportation around Crete is excellent, the poor quality digital information makes advance planning a challenge. Thankfully the most popular routes have near hourly departures, reducing the need to know exact timetables. Best to confirm schedules by visiting stations before planned travel.”
