Is Elounda Closer to Chania or Heraklion Crete?

We will visit Greece soon. We will be staying in Athens for 3 days and then we will visit Crete. Our hotel in Crete is in Elounda. Should we land in Chania or Heraklion airport?

Heraklion airport is definitely closer to Elounda than Chania airport. For this reason we recommend you land in Heraklion, which is only 70 km far from Elounda (approximately 1 hour by car or taxi, and 2 hours 30 min via bus).

We highly recommend that you either rent a car from the airport or arrange a private transfer.
