Thessaloniki Airport to Mount Olympus: Your Options

How to get from Makedonia Airport (SKG) to Litochoro and the Olympus Riviera — and why a private transfer + tour makes the most of your first day.

Thessaloniki Airport to Mount Olympus: Your Options

Makedonia Airport (SKG) is the main gateway to Mount Olympus and the Pieria coastline. The distance to Litochoro is about 90 km — roughly 1 hour 15 minutes by car.

Public transport requires a bus to the city, a second bus or train to Litochoro, and a taxi at the end. With luggage and after a flight, most travellers prefer a direct private transfer.

Our service combines the transfer with a tour or arranged service time (minimum booking 4 hours), so your journey becomes the first excursion of your holiday: a stop in Dion, a first walk in Litochoro, or a seaside lunch on the way. Pickups from Thessaloniki or the airport have a minimum charge of €310 including VAT and fuel.
