KTEL Magnisia Bus Athens - Volos

The KTEL bus between Volos and Athens runs Monday to Saturday at 5.00, 7.00, 9.00, 10.30, 12.00, 13.30, 15.00, 16.00, 17.00, 18.30, 21.00 & 01.00.  The 5.00 bus doesn't run on Sunday or Public Holidays.  Express buses are shown in bold and they do not go through the towns between the motorway and Volos, hence the journey time is about 30 minutes less that the non express buses.

Buses run between Bus Terminus B off Liossion Street, north of Omonia Square in Athens and the main bus station on the western side of Volos.  The journey time between Athens and Volos on the Express bus is around 4¼ hours while the non express buses take around 4¾ hours.  The bus travels along the new E75 road which bypasses Agios Konsantinos.  The bus stops after about 2¼ hours for a 15 minute break at Taverna Asteras (near Agios Konstantinos) from Athens to Volos and Cafe 140 from Volos to Athens.  The number indicates the disance to or from Athens.  This is an opportunity to stretch your legs, go to the loo or get some food and drink.  The departure of the bus may be announced in Greek or signalled by the driver hitting the horn but don't count on it.  We recommend you keep an eye on the bus driver or some of the Greek passengers so you're not left behind.  Taxis are available at both bus stations.
