Taxis are not always easy to find on the islands, even when arriving at the port. Timetables are hard to come by but my top tip is to photograph one at the main terminal which should set you up for your time on the island. As always, it’s much easier if you have change. If you are at the main stop, you can pay at the kiosk, if not, on the bus itself. There is a flat rate per journey (expect €2 or less). Getting Around Paros There are 3 main options for getting around the island: Busīuses are regular & reliable if a little chaotic at times. Check out Summer Senses Luxury Resort if this sounds more like your style. Here, consider the Argonauta Hotel, Apollon Boutique Hotel, Margarita Studios or Pension Sofia.Īlthough there are many other places to consider, the last on my list is the small fishing village of Piso Livadi for a more authentic Greek vibe.

The house is perfectly located right in the centre of Naousa but with a fantastic view from the roof terrace. When I last stayed, I made my home at the small but budget-friendly Efi’s Rooms& loved it. Options for Naousa hotels which are close to the centre & with a (now all-important) good cleanliness rating, you could try Lilly Residence (Adults Only), Paliomylos Spa Hotel, Kallisti Paros, Kanale’s Rooms & Suitesor Hotel Senia. It is a short 15-minute drive from the port of Parikia but worth it for lovely waterside dining areas, gorgeous alleyways full of shops & some fantastic nearby beaches. My favourite base is the gorgeous harbour town of Naousa.
