Chania - how to take public bus 🚌 into town

[little britain]

At the port gate there is a ticket machine ( if no one is manning the ticket booths)

 

As of 11/2023 the price is €1.50 pp each way.  You press the €1.50 button and then the option comes up for how many tickets 🎟️ you want.  Press 2 gets you two tickets one for each trip. 

The machine takes coins. I’m not sure if it gives change as a lady was trying to put in €20 note and wasn’t getting anywhere!

 

The bus is #13

It runs every 20 minutes and it is about 20 min ride into town. 
The bus driver takes your ticket and tears it in half. You keep one half. 

You catch the return bus from where you are dropped off. The return journey takes a little longer as it goes via the military base. However you could always get off in the little shopping area when you see the ship and walk down. 

 

I hope this helps

Update: September 2024.

Price has increased to €1.60pp e/way. 
 

The ticket booth mentioned previously is actually outside the further port ( where the ferries are). If you dock nose in - facing the buildings you are at that one. 
 

Otherwise the other dock you are parallel to the land and they should have a manned ticket booth.

Good information.  Is there anything in walking distance of the port?
