Horrible Bus Service and Driver
calandramslana,Jun 20, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
1.00Would give zero stars if that were an option. Bus driver looked at my party which included a toddler standing at bus stop and passed us up . The bus was late at that . Bus never pulled up , looked at us and hit the gas . Please do not use this horrible service with terrible bus drivers . I rode this bus only once on that day , although I paid for three day pass. I requested refund by company and was denied . I will be disputing charge with my bank when I return home . Please use a different service because this is subpar.
Great way to see Athens for short stays or cruise passengers.

5.00This is a great way to see Athens if you are visiting for a short time. This bus has 3 different routes, one of them going to the harbor and the cruise ports. It will pick up passengers from their cruise ship and it goes back to the center of the city where they can get off and see the Acropolis, the Museum and Pantheon, or they can take another bus that tours the city.
Not recommended

Perfect

- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00Lowest prices Pleasant and professional service and drivers Bus meets standards: decent comfort, audio in many languages that comments on the minimum of each monument Stops that are common with other companies and in front of each important "spot" Punctuality (from the cruise ships at 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM every 30 minutes)
Great Option

5.00Nice way to see the city safely and without a lot of walking! The bus had air conditioning and was comfortable. Great price, too.

5.00Great way to get around and see the main attractions. You can get off the bus at any stop to explore the area or attractions in more detail like taking a tour.
The experience was not so...

3.00The experience was not so great overall not due to the bus service itself but mainly attributed to the heavily congested traffic in the Athens route. So essentially all hop on hop off buses all face the same issue.
Left us stranded

- Review from Viator
1.00The bus left us stranded in Athens Waited for over 1 hour and no bus came so we had to take a taxi to get us back to ship on time. Worst part was they denied any delays even though the locals were telling us they could not get through due to a festival we were not warned about
