We arrived a day early and stayed at the Plaka. Pros: walking distance to everything , great rooftop restaurants Cons : Weekends… loud music and parties until 3am .. so if you need to rest after your flight .. (1)eye mask , ear plugs 😴 (2) different location 🫣 (3) party with the rest of them 😀 Easy trip to the port .. the hotel got us a driver who was so good , we hired him to pick us up and take us around before going to the airport . Send me a message if you want his name and number … First Class treatment and speaks English well ( unlike our cab from the airport , no English and got lost )

Use RICK STEVE EUROPE App to tour Athens on your own. It is like having a private tour guide with even podcasts for more information! Our cruise was changed because of the war in Israel but overall it was a good time.

Athens not what I expected however the Parthenon, Acropolis and the views from there are worth the trip.

Perhaps the most interesting ancient buildings in the country.

It was great to see the Acropolis but Athens is just a graffiti ridden city. Not my favorite. Acropolis was very cool but so many people made it more a chore than an excursion

Took the ship tour of Acropolis and scenic coast. A nice mix of the city and outside the town along the coast. Had a great lunch in the hills.

Nothing in Piraeus. We took a taxi (€18 euro each way & 25 mins) to Syntagma Square. We did our own walking tours (two of them) using Rick Steves Audio Europe App. The first tour was of Plaka & the second was of the Acropolis.
