You can check for updates at the KTEL local bus webpage here.
There are many stops along the route but if you have a particular destination (the donkey farm for example) it is worth letting the driver know as they will drop you off. If you need specific information on the local bus service please email us and we will try to help.
You can visit the KTEL website for information on other routes here.
Jassas,
When starts the busservice in 2016 in Petra and Anaxos?
I come end May to Lesbos.
With kindly regards,
Frans Heiligers
Frans,
I don’t know when the bus service will start, it seems to be different each year. We will update the page as soon as we have new information.
Regards
Robin
At last, better late than never.
Why not up to the Castle anymore?

Do you know the times of the bus from Petra to Mytilini please, and also return times. Thank you. We are visiting for an overnight stay, in September.

All those departures are from Mytilini?
This is the local bus that runs from Anaxos to Eftalou.
If you want schedules for routes to/from Mytilene you need to follow this link http://www.ktel-lesvou.gr/.
Is there allready a new timetable for 2017?
Regards , Sander.
Sorry, but the buses are not running yet. We will try to add a timetable as soon as they start.
I hope the bus starts next week :-/
Somebody on Trip Advisor has said that the buses are up and running. No timetable on there though.
Yes, the buses have started. The published timetable is as last year minus the 15:15 bus from Eftalou. This might be a posting error. It would be a big help if anyone can confirm that the bus is/isn’t running.
Hoorah, thank you Robin and Danny. This is a useful site that I only discovered last week
You are welcome Gill.
If you find something of interest, please help others by sending us a report (with pictures is good) and we can post the information here so others can enjoy it too.
Will do.
Τhank you for this Robin . Will be so useful next week when we arrive . Ann and Peter
Dear Robin,
I leave next week to Lesbos. Are the buses still running then?
The local bus service is reliant on passenger numbers. The service usually ends in mid-September.
The bus service for the rest of the island runs throughout the year.
