Direct embarkation from the airport is possible, via the metro and bus number 843 which drops you just outside the port. Costs 9 euros from the airport, or 1 euro 30 cents on a 90 minute ticket from anywhere in the Athens area. ...
Joined a cruise organize tour. Quick 5 min stop at the Olympic stadium. Then Drop us at Plaka area at 9:30am nothing much was open. It might be better if they make our meeting time 30 min later to drop us off at plaka at 10. Store are open mostly around 11ish. Then the acropolis tour was great! Had a very good time ...
Super easy to get around, walk to the metro and then take the metro line to Acropolis or Syntagma Square. Ignore the taxi drivers.
Port itself require multiple security screenings. ...
We came in the day before the cruise to tour Athens, Greece. It is fabulous. Stayed in an outstanding hotel called, The Grande Bretagne Hotel and I highly recommend it especially the roof bar and restaurant. The only issue is you need a few day to fully enjoy Athens, Greece. GREAT port. ...
So much history, such jaw dropping antiquities to see!
The Acropolis with the Parthenon is always a wonder, and the new Acropolis museum is very wonderful.
Our guide with WarmPenguin was a history teacher and we learned so much! ...
Booked through Iglu, taxi took us to the port, Virgin Voyages took our bags and a shuttle bus took us into the town of Piraeus until our boarding time, all went very smoothly. When we disembarked, bags easily identified, our taxi was waiting to take us to the Airport ...
We did the Hop On bus from Pireaus which was excellent value. You transfer to the Athens bus and we had a great lunch in a very busy restaurant in Athens. ...
