Travel Note ⛴️

Piraeus is the main port of Athens where the ferry terminals are located, if you plan to travel to the Greek islands before or after the wedding this is where you will depart from. Another way to travel to the islands is via the airport, which is not shown on the map.

Airport is located just outside of central Athens. If coming direct from the airport, it will take you about 25 minutes to drive to the Vouliagmenoi, Varkiza, Vari areas. If driving direct to central Athens (in a different direction), it will take you about 30 minutes from the Airport to central Athens.

We hope you enjoy your stay and make the most of your visit to Athens! 🌟
