I am on a cruise ship for the day, do I have time?
Yes, We are very used to dealing with the day cruises.The tour always ends a few minutes' walk from the Acropolis entrance and very close to other major attractions. Always best to inform your local expert whether you have only a short time in Athens
How do I reach you from the Port of Piraeus?
The two best options are as follows:
A taxi should only take about 20 minutes and cost around 15-20 € (Make sure you establish a fixed price with the driver before getting into the taxicab).
Taking the train is a more economic way of getting to us. From the cruise ship terminal to Piraeus train station it will take you about 25 minutes if you walk (inquire with your cruise companies purser or receptionist about shuttles to the station). Once you’re at the Piraeus station take the train to Monastraiki Station. Upon exiting the train station take the Monistriki Square Exit. ___________________. You should allow approximately 40 minutes travel time from Piraeus Station to Monistriki station. PLEASE USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN USING THE TRAIN AS THIS IS A COMMON PLACE WHERE PEOPLE RUN INTO PICKPOCKETS.
