lifeasme123 Posted June 1, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 1, 2017 We will fly into Athens International airport and will stay near Temple of Zeus area. Which is more economical - taxi or shuttle? Any idea what the ball park price is between the two (roundtrip)? I would like a baseline so I know if I am quoted a fair price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leongcpa Posted June 1, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 1, 2017 We took the X95 bus from the airport to Syntagma Square. 5 euros per person, and it was a piece of cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubblesqueaker Posted July 6, 2017 #3 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Hey, you can do the bus for really cheap. We are staying in Piraeus next month. However, the bus was going to take 1h30 v 40 mins in a taxi. Our hotel quoted us a taxi at €49 one way. We've just booked that.

buchhalm Posted July 23, 2017 #4 Share Posted July 23, 2017 That taxi price seems to be about right +/- a few Euro. Another option is the subway to Syntagma. From there it's not a long walk to the hotels in the area yo booked ( or a cheap and quick taxi ride) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buchhalm Posted July 31, 2017 #5 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Further to taxi price. I just did this again 3 days ago. From hotel by the Acropolis museum to the airport I paid Euro 45 for car organised by the hotel. Metro line 3 (the blue line) takes around 45 minutes from the city centre (Syntagma square) +/- a few minutes from other stations. Tickets cost Euro 10 p.p., but trains seem to run only every half hour! With a lot of luggage I don't think it's worth it if it's 2 or 3 of you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
