Very nice driver
Our driver was not only on time, but he was a little early to accommodate us. He was extremely nice, his car was very nice, he showed us different areas as we were driving and I would definitely recommend him again

Our Driver Made This Trip Exceptional
Our driver arrived early and patiently waited as we disembarked our cruise ship in the port of Piraeus, Greece. Our trip on to Athens was perfect and our driver stopped a few times to give us an opportunity to take afrw pictures of scenery items that he suggested

Love our driver George!
George was a fabulous driver! He took our luggage immediately upon arrival at the cruise terminal, situated us in his car quickly, then offered candy and water! He drove safely to our hotel and unloaded our luggage and transferred it inside the lobby for us! Very friendly and efficient!! Highly recommend George!

Excellent bookable transfer in Athens
On-time transfer was excellent. Driver was holding a sign with our name so he was easy to spot. He was courteous, helpful with our bags. The vehicle was spotless.

Three Days in Athens
My wife Gloria and I arranged three days of private tours with Travel Smart. At the completion of our cruise round trip from Athens we were picked up by private car, met our tour guide, and headed to the Acropolis. here we climbed to the Parthenon, and being only three of us, we could get past the throngs of visitors while climbing to the top. If you are going to Greece do not miss the Parthenon. This was followed by a tour of the Acropolis museum which is absolutely wonderful. Especially when you have guide to point out the many sites you might miss on your own. Our driver and guide the brought us to the Changing of the Guard, a real spectacle. And we also visited the Panathinaikon Stadium, site of the first modern Olympic Games in 1896. Day two brought us to a boat ride on the Corinth Canal which connects the Gulf of Corinth in the Ionian Sea with the Saronic Gulf in the Aegean Sea. This is a lovely ride and the canal, just 25 meters wide, is something to behold. We then continued to Epidaurus, reputed to be the birthplace of Apollo's son, Asclepius, the healer, the most celebrated healing center of the classical world. There we had an exceptional fish lunch with an amazing Greek salad. This is a beautiful place to visit, but a bit of a trip from Athens. Our last day included a not to be missed Foodies tour. With ten other guests we sampled delicious food and drink while touring the grand market and surrounding area. From there. on our pwn , we visited the Jewish Museum. for us that was very important.

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Arrival Transfer: Piraeus Cruise Port to Central Athens: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Athens.
How much does Private Arrival Transfer: Piraeus Cruise Port to Central Athens cost?
+
Prices start at $39 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Athens usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Arrival Transfer: Piraeus Cruise Port to Central Athens take?
+
Plan for about 0.8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Athens is not rushed.
Is Private Arrival Transfer: Piraeus Cruise Port to Central Athens worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 91 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Athens, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Arrival Transfer: Piraeus Cruise Port to Central Athens?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Arrival Transfer: Piraeus Cruise Port to Central Athens suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Arrival Transfer: Piraeus Cruise Port to Central Athens?
+
Around 32 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Athens can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Athens and add a light layer if any part of the 0.8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Arrival Transfer: Piraeus Cruise Port to Central Athens start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Athens within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Athens?
+
On Outty we rank every Athens experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Athens Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis, Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Acropolis E-bike Tour With Entrance Tickets. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Athens?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Athens?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
