You will need to negotiate the rate in advance with the driver but most drivers waiting at the port will be looking to take passengers on an all day tour. Taking a taxi to Syntagma Square from Piraeus should be around €20-25 per cab (not per person). You will probably get off at Monastiraki, Syntagma, or Akropoli station (last two require changing lines).Ĭoming back, use the pedestrian overpass to cross the street where you can catch the 843 or 859 bus back to the terminal.īeware of pickpockets on the metro and in crowded areas in Athens! If you plan on doing more than three trips, it is more economical to buy a day pass (€4.50, Mar 2019, not available at newsstands). Remember to validate your ticket before boarding. If you've decided to walk all the way, you can buy your ticket at self serve machines at the station when you enter but staffed service counters are to your right. Ask the driver to stop at the metro station or you can spot it by looking for the pedestrian overpass. You will need to validate your ticket onboard by time stamping your ticket in the machines. Bus stops should be signed for the 843 or 859 bus (google maps have the bus stops marked). Tickets are good for 90 minutes (valid for buses, metro or tram) and only €1.40 (Mar 2019). If you can't find it or if they are sold out, keep on walking north towards the metro station keeping the harbor on your left to find another one. The bus stop is nearby across the side street. From cruise terminal A, head north crossing the main street and look for a newsstand to buy tickets. You can take a bus but they don't sell tickets onboard but at kiosks, newsstands and mini markets. The metro station is a 20-30 minute walk from the terminal following the harbor. Taking the metro is also a convenient way to get into central Athens. Service should begin in May for the 2019 cruise season. Buses operate from 7am till 9:30pm, and run approx every 30 minutes.

Ticket price is €4.50 for a 24hr transit pass available from the driver. Īn express bus service introduced in 2015, X80, provides service between the cruise terminals and Syntagma Square with only four stops along the way including one stop near the Acropolis. You can now buy tickets (single, 24hr, express buses) with the TfA tickets (Transport for Athens) app introduced in 2015.įares have increased as of but ticket duration has increased to 90 minutes.
