About
Taxi Sotirlamas is a local taxi service operating in and around Polichnitos, a traditional market town in the southern part of Lesvos. For visitors exploring this quieter, less-touristed region of the island, having a reliable local driver makes a meaningful difference — whether you are heading to the famous thermal baths of Polichnitos, venturing toward the salt flats and lagoons of the Gulf of Kalloni, or simply connecting between villages without a rental car.
Local taxi services like Sotirlamas are the backbone of transportation for both residents and independent travelers across rural Lesvos. A knowledgeable driver from the area can navigate the winding inland roads with ease, suggest stops along the way, and provide the kind of practical local knowledge that no map app can replicate. For those staying in the southern villages or passing through on a broader island itinerary, this service offers a convenient and personal way to get around on your own terms.
Before you go
What to expect
Booking a ride with a local taxi in Polichnitos puts you in the hands of someone who knows these southern back roads intimately — the kind of driver who can drop you at the thermal baths, wait while you soak, and suggest a good lunch spot on the way back. It's a practical solution for independent travelers who want to reach the salt flats or nearby villages without the stress of navigating unfamiliar roads.
Best time to visit
The service runs year-round, though the surrounding region sees most visitors from April through October when the thermal baths and natural sites are at their busiest.
How to get there
Polichnitos is roughly 45 minutes south of Mytilene by car, following the main road toward the Gulf of Kalloni; once in town, the taxi service is the natural starting point for onward journeys through the south.
