Your destination
About Piraeus
Piraeus is the busiest passenger port in Europe and it is laid out like a working harbour, not an airport: gates E1 to E12 are strung along roughly four kilometres of waterfront, and the one on your ticket decides whether the walk from the metro takes five minutes or forty-five. Everything else — which boat, how early, whether you can bring the car — follows from that.
