Getting to Paxos
One of the charms of Paxos is that it does not have an airport. The nearest airport is in Corfu Town. There are flights to Corfu from many UK and European airports. From London the flight time is approximately 3 hours. You will then need to take a boat from Corfu to Paxos.
We will be happy to help arrange your boat and taxi transfers.
