Getting around Firostefani by car
Firostefani sits on the caldera rim between Fira and Imerovigli, close enough to Fira's main square that many visitors cover the distance on foot. Its old centre is pedestrian, a run of narrow lanes and steps down to hotels built into the cliff face, so the driver waits on the main road at the point closest to your hotel and carries the bags in when the lane is too narrow for the car.
Firostefani shares Fira's price zone, so every fare, to the airport, the port or a route pair, matches what Fira pays. The airport is 7 km away, about 10 minutes; Oia is further, 10 km and about 10 minutes along the caldera road, and slower still once the evening sunset traffic builds around Imerovigli.

Good to know
- Firostefani is priced the same as Fira, so weigh up the walk to your hotel rather than the fare when you choose where to stay.
- The caldera path to Fira's main square is level underfoot and often quicker on foot than by car once the streets fill up before sunset.
- House numbers are hard to see from the road here. Message the hotel name and your driver confirms the exact meeting point the day before.
Questions about Firostefani
Can the taxi come to my hotel door in Firostefani?
Only if the hotel sits directly on the main road. Most caldera-view hotels are down a pedestrian lane, so the driver stops at the closest point the road allows and carries the bags the rest of the way.
Is Firostefani priced the same as Fira?
Yes. Firostefani sits inside Fira's price zone, so a taxi to the airport, the port or any route pair costs the same as it would from central Fira.
How far is Firostefani from the airport and from Oia?
The airport is 7 km away, about 10 minutes. Oia is further, 10 km and about 10 minutes along the caldera road, and slower again once the evening sunset traffic builds.
