They’re always right on time at the drop-off point, even with Athens’ rush-hour traffic—the frequency of the buses at the pickup locations means there are no long waits. It’s definitely a great way to see Athens’ most interesting sights while sitting comfortably, with an audio guide available in all languages, and the freedom to get off wherever you want.

This is a great way to get around Athens—it’s comfortable, educational, makes plenty of stops, and is affordable. Highly recommended for cruise passengers, since the buses stick to their schedules and go all the way to the cruise terminal. Just make sure to buy your ticket online, because they charge almost double when you get off the cruise ship.

Explore Athens effortlessly with a 2-day unlimited hop-on hop-off bus tour and also go around the Port of Piraeus, and the coastline of the Athenian Riviera.

Customize your itinerary and leisurely explore each stop at your own pace. The buses cover 35 stops across 4 different lines.

Engage with an informative pre-recorded commentary available in 16 languages aboard the open-top buses along with access to Wi-Fi.

Popular stops along your route include the Acropolis Museum, Temple of the Olympian, and Panathenaic Stadium.

Generally, the idea of a hop-on-hop-off bus was good. The only challenge we had - waiting for a bus for about 30-40 min. However it was likely because of road works and blocked roads. Otherwise everything was fine.
