Here are the 12 things to do in Athens (my favorites): 1. Admire the view from Philopappos Hill, it will leave you speechless ✨ 2. Visit the Acropolis of Athens, the main attraction of the city. Go early in the morning if you want to have it all for yourself.🌁 3. Have a drink at one of the many rooftops over the Monastiraki square, my favorite is @aforathensbar 🥂 4. Watch an open-air @greeknationalopera performance at the Herodes Atticus amphitheater in the Acropolis. This is a lifetime experience and the tickets start around 25€ 🎭 5. Go to Sounion to see the Temple of Poseidon, it is open every day of the year from 9:30 until sunset with the last entry allowed 20 minutes before the sunset time.🔱 6. Eat traditional food in Plaka, in one of the terraces overlooking the Acropolis. Don’t miss the Moussaka, Gemista and Dolmades.🥘 7. Visit the Temple of Olympian Zeus, at the magic light of sunset.🇬🇷 8. Have an ice-cream in Monastiraki square, where I always eat the best ice cream of my life.🍦 9. Have a walk in the Roman Agora, cause Athens is an open-air museum.🏛️ 10. Pay a visit to the National Library and admire its architecture 📚 11. Climb the Lycabettus hill, there are many stairs, so don’t do it at noon, cause the sun is too hot🔆 12. Walk through the port of Piraeus, one of the largest harbours of the Mediterranean⛵️ 📌Save this post for later, if you want to visit Athens #visitathens #athens #ig_greece #ig_athens #thingstodo #attractions #instalifo #parthenon #acropolis #monastiraki #lycabettus

As far as busy ports go, one of the finest and safest. Know the Gate number of your ship in advance, and you can use the free shuttle buses to get around quickly. Places for coffee and food just across the street from the main entrance. None of them are especially good but perhaps better than what you will find on the ship, depending on which you take. All of the ferry lines have offices or kiosks around the port, so you can get any ticket matter resolved here.

I didn’t like it at all. The food at the restaurants are just avarage. The coffee we ordered was really awful. The service was slow and the personnel was unfriendly and unhelpful. People, atmosphere, food, sights are just the opposite of Athens. Don’t waste your time and budget in Piraeus. Just pass by. That will be enough. It is even difficult to find a taxi to go back. In short I had a stressful time in Pireus.

The ferry terminal is extremely busy in the morning with many travelers island-hopping. Arrive at least 20 minutes before departure, as they won’t wait once the cars are loaded. Once onboard, secure your luggage and head to the deck for stunning views and a beautiful sunrise—worth every moment!

This part of Athens is a bustling, work-a-day area. Although staying here to be close to cruise ship departures is tempting, stay in a nicer area of Athens and taxi in the day of your cruise departure There is nothing much to do here and the hotels are budget properties and overpriced.
