Delphi Travel Forum

Hi, I'm trying to find out the times of the bus going from Delphi to Larisa and vice versa. I tried on KTEL's site but couldnt find anything.

Anyone knows?

don't know if it's too late to reply,

but there is a bus that runs between Amfissa and Thessaloniki, with a stop in Lamia. If you go from Amfissa to Lamia on this bus, you can get a connection to Larisa at Lamia (there are many schedules every day).

Amfissa -> Lamia http://www.ktel.org/en/popup.asp?line_id=85&season=1
Lamia -> Larisa http://www.ktel.org/en/popup.asp?line_id=356&season=1

Both of these schedules run every day so it shouldn't matter when you are going.

I hope this was helpful to you.
best, xaroula.

OOPS!!!!!!!

Oh that was embarrassing!!!! That bus Amphissa-Thessaloniki goes right through Larisa. So you don't even have to switch at Lamia.

Hi Xaroula, thanks so much for your reply.

I wonder if you can help me with this. The thing is we want to get from Delphi to Meteora or vice versa (depending on the timings) without going back to Athens, staying one night and coming out again.

Do you know how I can do this better or is it better to go via Larisa?

Sure, you can take the bus all the way. There are a few options:

Amphissa is very close to Delphi, so you can easily take a cab there from Delphi. From Larisa, there are busses to Kalambaka.

The schedule you want is:
Larisa to Arta, with stops in Trikala and Kalambaka.

See the schedule here: http://www.ktel.org/en/popup.asp?line_id=1137&season=1

To make this bus, you have to be in Larisa at 10:00am. (But it's everyday.)

Alternatively, you can try to catch a bus directly from Amphissa to Kalambaka (there is one several times a week in the afternoon). Schedule here: http://www.ktel.org/en/popup.asp?line_id=1003&season=1

Or, you can get a bus to Lamia and try to catch the Athens-> Grevena bus which stops in Lamia and Kalambaka (and Trikala). http://www.ktel.org/en/popup.asp?line_id=941&season=1

Be careful though -- sometimes they won't let you buy a ticket on a bus from a different prefecture if it's just passing through and there are local options. But if it's really your only option, you should be fine.

It's not a bad idea to call the KTEL people (try the Amphissa station) and ask their advice. They'll certainly be able to find more than I can. http://www.ktel.org/en/tel.asp for phone numbers
