Athens Airport transfers connect Athens Airport (ATH) with Athens and nearby destinations. Athens Airport is 21 km from Athens City Centre, making a pre-booked pickup useful when you want a clear arrival plan from the moment you land.

Why travellers book an airport transfer

Pre-booking gives you a confirmed destination, pickup instructions and a price to review before you commit. It can be a practical choice after a late flight, with heavy luggage, or when you are travelling with children or a group. A private vehicle also takes you directly to your accommodation, ferry connection or meeting point without changing services on the way.

This option suits visitors staying in central Athens, travellers heading towards the coast and passengers continuing to a port. It is also useful if you prefer not to arrange transport after landing, especially when you are unfamiliar with the airport or the city.

How booking works

Choose Athens Airport as your pickup point and enter your destination. You can select locations such as a hotel, private address, port or other agreed meeting point. The booking form shows the available option and price before you book, so you can check the details against your plans.

After booking, review the confirmation carefully. Keep the pickup instructions, contact details and destination information available on arrival. Meet the driver at the agreed pickup point and confirm that the destination matches your booking before setting off. If your flight plans change, contact the relevant provider and check the latest arrangements.

Popular transfers

Common routes from Athens Airport include Piraeus, Rafina, City Centre, Monastiraki, Glyfada, Acropolis, Syntagma Square, Syntagma and Alimos. These destinations cover central accommodation, major sightseeing areas, southern districts and onward ferry connections.

Tips for arrival day and the trip home

Keep your booking confirmation easy to access and allow time to collect luggage before making your way to the pickup point. Check the meeting instructions before leaving the aircraft, and make sure your phone can receive messages if the driver needs to contact you. Use the exact accommodation name and address when booking, particularly if your stay has more than one entrance.

For the return journey, confirm the pickup address and departure arrangements with your accommodation. Allow room for luggage collection and airport procedures, and check the latest airport information before leaving. If you are travelling to a port, make sure the destination details match the correct ferry connection.
