Cruise over Saronic Gulf and its Islands
by Kuznetsov_Sergey
One day cruise over Saronic Gulf and its three Islands: Poros, Hydra and Aegina is the best way to learn this area in short time.
This is the one cruise you have to take folks! Especially if you like me are short on time. Its a great way to see three Greek islands in one day and in particular, three less visited Saronic Gulf islands where real Greeks spend more time than foreigners.
As Islands, they are generally more family oriented. You'll see fewer tattoos and more of traditional Greece, not to mention the outstanding ancient temple of Aphaia on Aegina and Hydra's vehicle free port with donkeys and mules as the main means of transportation! Not that you'll need them though! You can see the port sights on foot and right near the dock too.
Poros wont let you down either and you can see the Peloponnese a few meters away as well.
Early morning transfer to the port for embarkation. Cruise to Aegina, Poros, Hydra with a short stop on each island, giving you the chance to explore the ports. Lunch on board. Return in the evening.

Airport Express

Bus and trolley tickets can be purchased at special booths and kiosks near the bus stops. Once you are on the bus or trolley, validate your ticket by asserting it into one of the meters for that purpose; the ticket will be punched and dated. Then keep the ticket until you leave the bus, since it's not uncommon to have a ticket-checker to check their validity (if you are found that you haven't punched your tickets, you're required to pay around 15 - 25 Euro.

Piraeus Port and City
by johngayton
Pireaus is best known as the port of Athens but is in fact a separate city, being the 3rd largest in Greece with a population of approximately 175,000. For most visitors all they ever see of the city is the port itself or perhaps the short walk from the Metro station across the road to the dock gates but it is worth spending some time here - even if just to visit one of the excellent fish restaurants or just have a general walk around - I personally managed to combine both in the same evening - Ha!
