Getting Around Athens

Useful tips for your arrival and transportation.

✈️ Airport Transfer (ATH)

The airport is about 40 minutes from the city center.

🚆 Metro (Line 3 - Blue)

Tap your contactless credit card directly at the gates. No ticket needed!

🚌 X95 Express Bus

Runs 24/7 directly to Syntagma Square.

🚕 Taxis & Apps

We highly recommend downloading an app instead of hailing taxis.

Uber works (calls a standard taxi). The local favorite is FREENOW.

⚠️ Avoid taking random taxis from the street to prevent overcharging.
