Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should I book a ride?
We recommend booking your transfer or hourly hire service at least 72 hours in advance. If you don’t have that much time, you can request an urgent transfer — we’ll let you know as soon as possible whether we can confirm it.
What pick-up time should I specify for the transfer?
If your transfer starts from an airport or railway station, please specify your flight or train arrival time as the start of your transfer. This helps the driver organize the meeting more accurately.
If your transfer starts from a hotel to an airport, please indicate the time you wish to be picked up at reception. You’ll need to calculate it yourself, allowing extra time for check-in. We recommend adding about 3 hours before your flight’s departure. For example, if your flight leaves at 14:00 and the trip takes 1 hour, your pick-up time should be 10:00.
How do I know if my order has been accepted?
After submitting your booking, you’ll receive an email with all trip details and your order status as “Waiting”. Once we receive and confirm your payment, the status will change to “Accepted”, and you’ll receive another email confirmation.
If you don’t receive the confirmation email, please contact our support team at office@welcome.taxi.
How do I change my booking?
To make changes to your booking, please contact our support team at office@welcome.taxi.
Important note: Requests for changes made less than 72 hours before your trip may be declined.
How can I cancel my booking?
You can cancel your booking in two ways:
- Via the booking page on our website — use the cancellation number provided in your booking voucher, at least 72 hours before the trip.
- By contacting our support team if it’s less than 72 hours before your ride.
Important note: In case of urgent cancellation, we may not be able to refund your deposit. The free cancellation period is stated in your confirmation email.
What should I do if my flight is delayed?
If your flight is delayed by less than 30 minutes, the driver will adjust their arrival time automatically.
If the delay is longer, please inform the driver directly (their phone number is in your confirmation voucher) or contact WelcomeTaxi Customer Support at office@welcome.taxi. Please include your order number and the new arrival time.
Important note: The driver may charge an additional fee for extended waiting time.
How will I find my driver?
For airport transfers, if you’ve added the meet-and-greet option to your order, the driver will meet you in the arrivals area — right after passport control and baggage claim. You’ll see a name sign with your first and last names (or custom text, if specified in your booking).
Important note: We strongly recommend adding the meet-and-greet option to your airport transfer booking.
For hotel pickups, the driver will wait for you in the hotel lobby. Detailed meeting instructions and your driver’s contact number are provided in your booking confirmation voucher.
How can I be sure that my driver will pick me up?
WelcomeTaxi guarantees that your driver will do their best to meet you on time.
Both you and the driver will have each other’s phone or WhatsApp number. Please keep your mobile phone switched on at the time of pickup. If you can’t reach the driver, contact our support team immediately.
I can’t find my driver. What should I do?
If you can’t find your driver, please double-check the name signs again — the driver may have missed you in the crowd.
Try calling or messaging the driver via WhatsApp. If there’s no response within the meeting time, contact our support team.
If necessary, go to the airport’s Information Desk to arrange a local taxi to your destination.
Important note: If the driver fails to meet you, we will refund your payment.
What Our Customers Say

Highly recommended taxi service
Airport Transfers and Chauffeur Service in Zakynthos
Zakynthos, also known as Zante, is one of the Ionian Islands and one of Greece's best-known holiday destinations. The island combines sandy beaches, dramatic cliffs, marine caves, lively resort areas and a compact capital, Zakynthos Town. Accommodation is spread across many coastal communities, so pre-arranged road transportation is useful for both airport arrivals and travel around the island.
WelcomeTaxi provides pre-booked private transfers and chauffeur service in Zakynthos for individual travellers, couples, families and groups. Transportation can be arranged between the airport, hotels, villas, resorts, ports and other island destinations. Booking in advance is particularly convenient during the busy summer season, when demand for local transportation is high.
Zakynthos Airport Transfers
Zakynthos Airport (ZTH), officially Zakynthos Airport “Dionysios Solomos”, is the island's commercial airport and the main gateway for travellers arriving by air. It handles domestic and international flights, with particularly strong seasonal traffic during the summer months.
A private transfer from Zakynthos Airport provides direct transportation to the exact hotel, villa or resort without the need to wait for shared services or arrange another ride after arrival. Transfers can be booked to Zakynthos Town, Laganas, Kalamaki, Tsilivi, Argassi, Alykes, Alykanas and other parts of the island.
Pre-booking is especially convenient for families, groups and passengers carrying several pieces of luggage. Cars, vans and larger vehicles can be arranged according to passenger numbers and baggage requirements.
Getting from Zakynthos Airport to Zakynthos Town
Zakynthos Airport is connected with Zakynthos Town by direct public bus service. The bus stop is located outside the arrivals area of the terminal, making public transport a practical option for travellers with light luggage and flexible schedules.
A private transfer provides a more direct door-to-door alternative. Passengers can travel from the airport to the exact hotel, apartment or other address without waiting for a scheduled departure or arranging additional local transportation.
This can be particularly useful after a late arrival, when travelling with children or when the final destination is outside the town centre.
Transfers to Laganas and Kalamaki
Laganas and Kalamaki are among the most popular resort areas close to Zakynthos Airport. Laganas is known for its long beach, nightlife and extensive tourist accommodation, while Kalamaki offers a quieter atmosphere and lies closer to the airport.
Private airport transfers can connect ZTH directly with hotels, villas and apartments in both resort areas. Door-to-door transportation is especially convenient for travellers arriving with luggage or staying at properties away from the main road.
Transfers can also be arranged between Laganas, Kalamaki and other destinations across the island during the stay.
Transfers to Tsilivi and the East Coast
Tsilivi is another major resort destination on Zakynthos and lies north of Zakynthos Town. The area is known for its beach, hotels, restaurants and family-friendly atmosphere.
A private transfer from Zakynthos Airport provides direct transportation to accommodation in Tsilivi without requiring passengers to change services in Zakynthos Town. This can be especially useful during peak summer periods when local transport demand is high.
Private vehicles can also connect Tsilivi with other east coast destinations, the capital and the airport.
Transfers to Argassi
Argassi lies just south of Zakynthos Town and is one of the island's established tourism areas. It is home to hotels, apartments, restaurants and beach access and is within convenient road reach of both the airport and the capital.
Private transfers can connect Zakynthos Airport directly with accommodation in Argassi. Hourly chauffeur service may also be useful for visitors who want to combine Argassi with Zakynthos Town and other nearby destinations during the same day.
Getting Around Zakynthos
Zakynthos has local buses and taxis connecting the main towns and resort areas. Public transport is useful for many straightforward journeys, especially between Zakynthos Town and established resort destinations.
Private transportation becomes more useful when travellers have luggage, are staying outside a main bus corridor or want to visit several parts of the island within the same day. A pre-booked vehicle can also simplify journeys to restaurants, beaches, ports and private villas.
For more flexible itineraries, hourly chauffeur service can remove the need to arrange a new taxi after every stop.
Chauffeur Service in Zakynthos
Hourly chauffeur service is suitable for travellers who need a vehicle for several journeys during the same period. The driver and vehicle can remain available according to the booked schedule for sightseeing, restaurants, beaches, wineries and other stops.
This can be especially useful on an island where attractions and accommodation are spread across different coastal and inland areas. A chauffeur allows travellers to follow a planned itinerary without relying on public transport timetables or arranging several separate rides.
For families and groups, vans and larger vehicles can keep passengers together throughout the itinerary.
Zakynthos Town Transfers
Zakynthos Town is the island's capital and cultural centre. It is home to Solomos Square, museums, churches, the harbour and the commercial heart of the island. The official Greek tourism portal describes the town as the vibrant centre of Zakynthos.
Private transfers can connect the airport, resorts and other parts of the island directly with hotels and addresses in Zakynthos Town. This is especially convenient for travellers arriving with luggage or moving between town and resort accommodation.
Port and Ferry Transfers
Zakynthos has ferry and maritime connections that can form part of a wider Greek island or mainland itinerary. Private transfers can connect hotels and resorts with the relevant port or harbour departure point.
Travellers should provide the exact port, ferry company and departure time when booking so that the pickup can be coordinated correctly. For scheduled ferry departures, sufficient time should be allowed for summer traffic and check-in procedures.
Island Sightseeing and Private Transportation
Zakynthos is known for a varied landscape of beaches, cliffs, caves, villages and viewpoints. Many visitors combine coastal sightseeing with visits to Zakynthos Town and inland locations during the same stay.
Private transportation can be useful for sightseeing itineraries involving several stops, particularly when destinations are not connected by one direct bus route. A chauffeur service can provide flexibility over timing while keeping the same vehicle available throughout the trip.
Regional and Long-Distance Transfers on Zakynthos
Although Zakynthos is a relatively compact island, road journeys between resort areas can still involve significant distances depending on the route. WelcomeTaxi can arrange private point-to-point transfers and longer island journeys according to operational availability.
Passengers can be collected from the airport, a hotel, villa or private address and taken directly to the final destination in the same vehicle. This is especially convenient for families, groups and travellers carrying substantial luggage.
For itineraries involving several destinations, hourly or multi-stop chauffeur service may provide greater flexibility than a standard one-way transfer.
Why Pre-Book Instead of Taking a Regular Taxi?
Taxis are available on Zakynthos and are practical for many short journeys. During peak summer periods, however, demand can increase significantly, especially around the airport and major resort areas.
A pre-booked private transfer provides greater certainty by arranging the pickup, destination and required vehicle before travel. Airport passengers can organise transportation in advance, while groups can reserve sufficient passenger and luggage capacity.
International visitors may also prefer transportation with an English-speaking driver, particularly for airport pickups, sightseeing itineraries and longer island journeys.
Useful Travel Information for Zakynthos
Zakynthos Airport uses the IATA code ZTH and is officially named Zakynthos Airport “Dionysios Solomos”. The airport provides direct public bus service to Zakynthos Town and is also served by taxis and private vehicles.
Zakynthos Town is the island's capital, while Laganas, Kalamaki, Tsilivi, Argassi and other resort areas are separate destinations with different road distances. Travellers should therefore provide the exact hotel, villa or resort name when arranging transportation.
When booking private transportation, provide accurate flight or ferry information, passenger numbers, luggage requirements and the complete destination address so that an appropriate vehicle can be arranged.
Book a Private Transfer in Zakynthos
WelcomeTaxi offers pre-booked transportation for Zakynthos Airport arrivals, hotel and villa transfers, port connections, chauffeur hire and journeys across the island. Whether you need a direct airport transfer, a vehicle for several hours of sightseeing or transportation to Laganas, Kalamaki, Tsilivi, Zakynthos Town or another destination, your journey can be arranged in advance with a suitable vehicle and professional driver.
