Athens & Riviera: Unforgettable Hop-On Hop-Off Adventure

We only had 1 afternoon in Athens, this was the best way to see all in one day. We also were able to get off and explore at our own leisure.

We paid for the 3 in 1 tour which was 28 euros each and you have 3 lines, Athens, the beaches and Piraeus harbour. The route around Athens City was really good, but if you’re good on your feet it is something you could do without the bus. The other two routes are so infrequent that you really need more than 48 hours to time it right, and the buses should be more frequent, starting earlier and finishing later. We chose to do the beaches route, which is a 2 hour round trip and with the bus only having 3 times throughout the day you don’t really get the chance to jump off. Also, the bus driver on our route was very pushy for feedback, pretty much pushing his QR code in our faces. If he’d been less in your face about it we’d have left positive feedback anyway.

Traveled on all 3 lines. Great perspective of the entire city. Love to do Hop on Hop Off busses when I am in a new city.

This was a great way to see the beach and get close to the Parthenon. Great shopping and sightseeing option!! One driver told us to be back to the pick up point by 4:30 and when we arrived there we were told the last bus was 3:15. They suggested we walk back to the Athens Marriott, or take a taxi. There were 8 of us. So, he called another bus to come and get us and took us right back to the Athens Marriott. We were very happy! The next day we rode it again, since we had purchased a 48 hour ticket. The next day we missed getting off when we wanted to get closer to the Parthenon - so they cleared our bus to another bus and they drove us directly to where we were heading. What great service we received!

Best way to see the city. Highly recommended. I haven’t been on the Piraeus or coast lines yet but will be doing those over the next few days. Yesterday spent the whole day seeing the sights on the Athens line and it was spectacular.

I had a lot of fun and visited so many places. The drivers were happy to assist as well as the staff at the various stop points.

The bus we took was the Athens Line with my two grandchildren, it took us all around so we could get our bearings. Make sure you plug in your free headphones and find out a wealth of knowledge about the City. I would definatley use this Bus again and next time I come to Athens I will go on the other two lines to explore more.

Great experience. The bus route was inclusive of a lot of wonderful stops to visit Athens. Wait times for the next bus was reasonable.

Try to do early and have a plan for specific sites. Bring water, snacks and do not get frustrated by traffic because its all part of the experience.

Our experience was amazing!! Not only was the route perfect but I left my wallet on the bus by mistake and when I realized I called the customer service number and spoke to a lovely woman who said she would alert the possible drivers based on my route and track it down for me. She asked me to call back in 10 min and she would have an update. As promised she not only had an update but George X (driver) had found it and gave it to a manager who would have it waiting for me to pick up. I got the wallet back easily at the agreed upon stop and all contents of the wallet were there. Thank you George!!
