    • Pictours of GreeceOperator•Written April 2024

      On May 17th we will be returning to Piraeus (the port of Athens) around 14:30, and you need at least one hour to reach the airport, therefore it is safe to book your return flight after 18:00 or better after 19:00. For your private transfer to the airport the cost would be 60 EUR in total.
