We're stopping in Athens for the day on our RC cruise in August/September. We've been to Athens before and arrived via ferry to Piraeus and took the metro into Athens. This would be my first choice but it looks like it's quite a long walk from where the cruise ships port to the metro station in Piraeus? Is there another method of transportation that would be better than the metro for getting into Athens? Our ship doesn't get into port until 12 noon so I'm concerned about traffic being busy that time of day. Also, there will be 6 of us, 4 adults and 2 kids, so I'm not sure if larger taxis would be readily available? Thanks!
