Minoa Pediada launches summer public transit service in Heraklion

Tuesday, 16 June 2026/SourceGoogle News/1 min read
The Municipality of Minoa Pediada, located in the inland region of Heraklion prefecture in central Crete, has launched its summer public transport service. The Municipal Transit network is now operating with the support of KTEL Heraklion-Lasithi, the regional intercity bus operator. This seasonal service connects villages and communities within the municipality that are otherwise difficult to reach without a private vehicle. For tourists staying in or exploring the Pediada area, including villages east of Heraklion, this provides a low-cost option for getting around without renting a car. Travelers can check current schedules and route details directly with KTEL Heraklion-Lasithi or the municipal offices. The service runs for the summer season, making it a practical option for visitors planning day trips to inland Cretan villages during the warmer months.
