🚕 Taxis & Private Transfers

<aside>

When to use: Taxis are great for short trips, airport transfers, or when you’d rather not drive.
Local numbers to save:
- Nidri / Nydri Taxi Services: +30 693 292 7170.
- Taxi Lefkada / island transfers (airport pickups): +30 26450 21200.
How to book: Call the numbers above, or ask your host to call and arrange a pickup. Several companies offer 24/7 airport transfers and day-trip services.
Hailing & ranks: In Nidri you can usually find taxis at the harbour/taxi rank or call ahead for pickup. During busy season, pre-booking is recommended.
What to expect: Fares are metered for short trips; longer transfers (e.g., airport to villa) are often quoted in advance — always confirm the price before you set off. </aside>

🚤 By Boat or Taxi Boat

<aside>

You’re in one of the most peaceful spots in Nidri — enjoy the sounds of the sea and nature as much as the technology!

Taxi boats run from Nidri to nearby beaches and islands (such as Meganisi).
You can also rent a small boat — no licence needed for certain sizes — and explore secluded coves at your own pace.
Always bring sunscreen, water, and a hat for boat trips! </aside>

🚶 On Foot

<aside>

Nidri village, shops, and restaurants are just a short walk from the villa. The walk down the hill is easy — the way back up is a bit more of a workout!
Evening strolls along the seafront are a must — the sunsets are spectacular. </aside>

🌿 Local Tip

<aside>

Download Google Maps or Maps.me for offline navigation — mobile signal can drop in some mountain areas. And don’t rush — the beauty of Lefkada is best discovered slowly!
