Siviri

There are no direct travel routes to Siviri even if you plan to come by air. The nearest airport stands in Thessaloniki that is 82 kilometers from the resort. After arrival at the airfield, you will need to buy a ticket for the bus № 79А. It will deliver you to the KTEL Halkidikis Bus Station. You can buy the tickets to Siviri at the ticket office or online in advance. All the scheduled buses are comfortable, spacious, and equipped with air-conditioning.

If you do not want to adjust to the transport schedule, make changes and spend a lot of time on the road, order an individual transfer.
