Private Transfers from Rhodes Commercial Port to Rhodes Town

Rhodes Commercial Port (Kolona harbour) sits directly alongside the medieval fortifications of Rhodes Old Town. The drive into Rhodes Town covers about 3 km and takes about 12 minutes, offering a quick transition from your ferry arrival to your hotel, holiday apartment, or rental villa.

Our platform displays real-time availability and transparent final rates directly from licensed local drivers. Vehicle capacities currently offered on this route cater to groups of up to 6 or 11 passengers, ensuring suitable space for families, groups, and travellers with multiple suitcases. If no live offers are available for your selected date, the system clearly alerts you and provides a direct link to the main transfers search page.

Completing your reservation is managed entirely on the main transfers page. Simply supply your ferry details, passenger count, luggage total, optional child seats, and your drop-off address to secure your private ride in advance.

Drivers meet arriving ferry passengers outside at the harbour exit of Rhodes Commercial Port (Kolona harbour). Because the port environment gets crowded during ferry dockings, your driver holds a name board so you can spot them quickly. Enter your ferry number or vessel name when booking on the main transfers page; this allows your driver to adjust their schedule to your ferry arrival, including evening and night dockings.

Your vehicle takes you directly to your accommodation address across modern Rhodes Town or along the surrounding avenues. If your hotel or guest house is located inside the historic walls of Rhodes Old Town, note that its interior streets are strictly pedestrianised. In these instances, vehicles drop off at the nearest accessible historic gate or designated vehicle drop-off point, leaving you just a brief walk to your entrance.

Although the distance is short (about 3 km), dragging wheeled luggage over cobblestones, through port gates, and along busy avenues can be exhausting in the island heat. Selecting a 6-passenger or 11-passenger vehicle ensures ample boot space for all suitcases and strollers. You can also add your return transfer back to Rhodes Commercial Port on the same booking form so your departure day is arranged ahead of time.

While public buses (KTEL) serve broader island routes, they do not operate direct point-to-point shuttle services right from the harbour exit to specific hotel addresses in Rhodes Town. Hailing an on-the-spot street taxi at the port often means waiting in long queues alongside hundreds of disembarking passengers. A pre-booked private transfer bypasses the crowds, pairs you directly with your driver at the harbour exit, and delivers you straight to your accommodation door or designated gate without intermediate stops.
