When booking this tour, do you keep your room accommodations in Athens the entire time? So that you will not need to pack all of your belongings every few days?

On the booking form, the extra section there is the hotel and port transfer to and from. Please confirm if I need to pay for this as extra as I read on the transport section the transfer is included so not sure if I need to select this as extra or not. Its a bit confusing.

We appreciate you sharing your travel plans with us and will be happy to answer any questions you may have. Inbound/Outbound transfers from/to Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport (Athens International airport) or from/to Piraeus Port are included in your package.
