The bus from Thessaloniki to Heraklion leaves from Thessaloniki (Macedonia terminal) and arrives at Heraklion. The departure point is the bus station at Giannitson 244, 546 28 Thessaloniki (Macedonia Intercity Bus Terminal, Menemeni) — phone numbers, hours and directions are on the station page.

KTEL Irakleiou-Lasithiou (KTEL Heraklion-Lasithi) sells tickets online, so you can book ahead — or buy at the station before you travel.

Read this before using the times below. Part of this journey is by ferry, and the bus ticket does not cover the boat — the operator sells the ferry ticket separately, at its own travel desk inside the Athina bus station in Heraklion.

Route map

The line joins the stops in order. It is not the road the bus takes — it is a straight chord between points, so treat it as sequence, not geometry. A hollow, dashed stop marker means the coordinate is a village centre rather than a surveyed bus bay; tap it to see where it came from.
