Delphi Travel Forum

Hi guys. Does anyone know schedule of buses going from Delphi to Thessaloniki. And What time does this trip takes. I need it very much. Please help.

The stupid website for KTEL (the initials of Long distance busses) does not show schedules for busses from Athens to anywhere! So you can figure your chances of getting info on busses from Dellphi to THessaloniki!!

BTW: There is one non-KTEL site that gives timetables for busses out of Athens:

However, nothing from Delphi.

My suggestion: go the the allexperts website. Apparently good-hearted experts all day & night answer specific questions like this. I clicked on it, and up came about 10 desperate inquiries about KTEl schedules.

In order to get an answer, it helps to be as specific as possible. Say the date you are planning to, because schedules change in the off-season. In case there is no internet link and all they can supply is a phone number, ask them how to get a telephone # where someone might possible speak english. NOTE: it helps on this site to say Please and sound really grateful, because these experts appreciate it. They are really good, and greece-based.

Just browsing thru my (Excellent) Rough Guide to greece, I found a page of "travel details" from that area of Greece. It shows me that there is no direct bus from Delphi to Thessaloniki. It may take multiple busses & 2 days. To understand what i'm saying you DO need a map. Here is a detailed one with major highways -- http://www.greeklandscapes.com/images/maps/greecemap/gr_tb_02.jpg

ROUGH GUIDE shows that there are busses from Livadhia TO delphi 6 x a day, -- so there OUGHT to be a few going in the other direction. However I don't see a conncection on that highwya... The only northern city with a Thessaloniki bus is LAMIA. and to get to Lamia, youhave to take the Delphi bus to Amfissa (6 x a day, 30 minutes) THEN a bus to Lamia (2.5 hours, 3 x a day). THEN there is a bus from Lamia to Thessaloniki only 2 X a day.. 4 hours). That would be 7 hours with perfect connections, but probably with busses only morning & night, it could be more than 24 hours.

If u do not solve this, you might have to return to athens (3 hours) and take the express bus to THess. (6 hours). Goooood luck!
