Athens (Piraeus) Cruise Reviews

...

Hop on Hop Off Bus Excursion was disappointing. Narration was on the fly, often after we had passed the sight we were supposed to see. The bus went out to Knossus, but stopped far away from the actual site and we could not see anything. Few stops were made. The walking tour, however, that was part of the excursion was much more interesting. We did not go to the Archaelogical Museum which ...

The Parthanon. That is all you need to know. Just go. Don't worry about accessibility issues, they have an elevator (although, you kind of have to beg to use it) but there are paths on top that allow any mobility device. The views are heart stopping and walking in all that history, is just an experience not to be missed. ...

Always wanted to visit Greece. When we were booking our cruise Greece was one of the first countries the re-open (post Covid). Operations at the port are efficient. The pre-cruise Covid test only took 20 minutes. The Taxi from downtown Athens was 20 Euros. ...

Wildfires curtailed some activity and there was a campfire smell at times. Guide said Parthenon was empty but sure did not feel that way. Cannot imagine the crush in a normal high season. ...

Embarkation port. Athens is a large city that seems dirty and run down in many areas but has so much history that it is well worth visiting. The relatively new Acropolis Museum is great. Piraeus as a port is a busy place but easy to reach via the metro system. We walked from there to the cruise terminal but I don’t recommend that for most cruisers. It was several km of very hot walking. ...

Did trips on my own. Parthenon, Flea market, Archeological museum, Plakos. ...

Nice paced tour of the museum and area. ...
