About Piraeus
Piraeus, Greece's largest port and the gateway to the Greek islands, lies 49km from Athens Airport via the coastal Leoforos Posidonos route or the urban highway. As one of the busiest passenger ports in Europe, Piraeus handles millions of ferry passengers annually departing to virtually every Greek island — Santorini, Mykonos, Crete, Rhodes, Corfu and the Cyclades, Dodecanese and Ionian chains. The port complex stretches along several kilometers with ferry gates E1 through E9 serving different island groups.
Gate navigation is critical for ferry connections: E1-E2 serves nearby Saronic islands (Aegina, Poros, Hydra), E3-E5 serves Cyclades islands (Santorini, Mykonos, Paros, Naxos), E6-E8 serves Crete and eastern Aegean, E9 handles car ferries. Each gate is separated by 500m-1km walking distance within the port complex. Missing a specific gate can mean missing your ferry sailing — particularly critical for night sailings and early morning departures when ferries leave regardless of passenger arrival status.
Metro transit exists but consumes time: Line 3 Blue to Syntagma (40 min, €10) then transfer to Line 1 Green to Piraeus (25 min, €1.40 — separate ticket), adding up to 1h15+ with connection wait. Private transfer delivers directly to the correct ferry gate within 52 minutes, with the driver confirming the specific gate for your vessel before departure. For island-bound travelers with luggage and ferry timing concerns, private transfer eliminates the metro-gate navigation stress entirely.
