TOUR DESCRIPTION
 

Athens Hotel to Piraeus Cruise Port Transfer / 1 Hours

Start your vacation on the right foot with a private transfer from your hotel to your cruise ship in Piraeus. No shared buses, no waiting for strangers, no unexpected stops - just a private vehicle reserved exclusively for your group, ready when you are.
Private transfers include a vehicle with a professional English-speaking driver and space for one large suitcase and one personal item (backpack or purse) for each person. The type of vehicle used is based on the number of people in your private group.

Your driver will meet you at your hotel entrance with a name sign. You set the departure time, and we handle the rest - including knowing exactly which terminal your ship is berthed at in Piraeus.

Please note
  • If you require additional luggage space or extra waiting time, please contact us in advance for a quote. Additional charges may apply.

Good to Know

Luggage Allowance

Each person may bring one large suitcase and one personal item — backpack, purse, or carry-on. If you have additional bags, oversized items, golf clubs, or mobility equipment, please contact us before booking so we can arrange the right vehicle.

Vehicle Types

Vehicle size is matched to your group — sedans for 1-2 passengers, minivans for 3-6, and minibuses for 7-8. All are air-conditioned, non-smoking, and licensed for private transport.

Total Transfer Time

Plan on approximately 30 to 45 Minutes.

Child Seats

Child seats are available on request, subject to availability. Please let us know at the time of booking if you need one and we will do our best to have it ready.

Adding a Stop

This is a direct transfer. If you’d like to spend a few hours exploring along the way — the ancient Acropolis and Parthenon, the vibrant Plaka neighborhood, or the National Archaeological Museum are all worth the detour — contact us and we can put together a custom itinerary and quote.

Larger Groups

For groups that exceed our standard vehicle capacity, we can arrange additional vehicles or a larger coach. Use the group request button on this page or contact us with your group size and travel date for a custom quote.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much time should we allow between hotel pickup and our ship's boarding cutoff?
The drive itself typically runs 30 to 45 minutes, but we'd suggest building in extra buffer beyond that, since cruise lines generally want you on board a few hours before departure. Check your specific line's boarding cutoff and work backward from there.
Can the driver pick us up from any hotel in Athens?
Yes, just have your hotel name and address ready when you book so your driver has the right pickup point.
Is this transfer private?
Yes, private and direct from your Athens hotel to the Piraeus cruise terminal, no other passengers or extra stops.
How much luggage can we bring?
One large suitcase and one personal item per person; let us know in advance if your group needs more room than that.
What if we're running late leaving the hotel?
Contact us as soon as you know. Since you have a ship departure to make, timing matters more here than on a typical point-to-point transfer, so don't wait to flag a delay.

Ken Diaz the Group Reservation Manager of Private Shore Trips organized an amazing set of tourstransportation events for our group of 42 friends and family in MULTIPLE countries! Yes Italy, Greece & Turkey!! Or tour guides provided excellent connections with the entire group and gave a dissertation on the history of each location we visited. We had teachers in our group and they were impressed with the tour guides that says a lot!

I want to take the opportunity to thank you for the services you coordinated for my family vacation in Europe. Each individual tour guide and driver were excellent. Their services were exceptional. They were super knowledgeable and friendly with professionalism. I would like to make sure they are recognized by their company for being great! P.S. you were also wonderful! You have great customer service and were always ready to assist us with any questions we may have.

5 of 5 Review Location- Athens April 9, 2025
Reviewer: Tom L from Houston, TX  
The Athens tour was the best tour we have ever been on. Your company could not have done a better job. The driver and vehicle were first class. The car and driver were early and waiting for us to appear. The guide was thoroughly knowledgeable, accommodating, personable and, frankly we would have loved having her with us as a friend. We had a wait list on the ship of others who wanted to join before we took these tour. After the tour, the people who joined us on the Private Shore Trips tour in Athens asked that we include them automatically on any other tours we decided to take....and word spread. Others stopped us on the ship and also wanted to join us if we set up any other tours. We also went on the Corfu tour that Gail set up through your company and it also was excellent. Thank you for your outstanding personal service in helping add us to the Corfu tour and then going to extreme effort in helping us set up the Athens tour (highlight of our cruise) at the last minute. We went on another tour with a different, larger, and more publicized company and that tour did not do anywhere close as good a job as yours. We WILL use you again and again and again. We are now loyal customers thanks first to your personalized, professional and outstanding service and then secondly for the outstanding quality of the tour itself.
