Overview
The new combined Athens & Piraeus tour is now available taking around 70 minutes. From Piraeus, the main port of Greece and the biggest in the Mediterranean, our tour is a mix of ancient history and modern development.
We stop at the main harbor, with its cruise boats, travel past Marina Zea harbor, with its myriad of tall mast ships, schooners, and cruisers, and onward past Microlimano harbor, a pretty fishing port where once Themistocles victorious Triremes were berthed before the epic, history-changing - sea battle of nearby Salamis. The archaeological and nautical museums here are well worth a visit.
Your ticket will also be valid for the main Athens tour (Change at stop 7 or 8).
Our City Sightseeing, open-top, double-deck bus tour of Athens takes around 90 minutes and encompasses central Athens, commencing at Syntagma Square.
