Full description

Enjoy the sights of Athens, Piraeus, and Riviera from the top deck of a double-decker hop-on hop-off sightseeing bus. Admire the architecture of the cities and learn about their history from the onboard commentary that’s available in 12 languages. Choose either the 90-minute Athens route that begins at Syntagma Square, the 60-minute Piraeus route that starts out at the cruise terminal, or the 120-minute Riviera and beaches route with a starting point at the Acropolis.

There is an interchange bus stop at the Acropolis that connects all of the lines. These tourist-friendly city tours offer the opportunity to admire and stop and visit spectacular sites. From May to October, enjoy complimentary audio-guided walking tours of the surrounding areas of the Acropolis, Plaka, and the National Gardens.

In Athens, a city filled with historical and cultural monuments, you can hop off to explore the Acropolis and Parthenon archaeological sites. Take in the new Acropolis Museum and the Archaeological Museum. Explore picturesque Plaka and Monastiraki, where you’ll discover neoclassical buildings, archaeological findings, and souvenir shops. Historic Piraeus port is one of the most important commercial seaports in the Mediterranean. Nearby, you’ll find a number of private harbors, such as the Mikrolimano and the Zea Marina (Pasalimani).

It's a wonderful idea, comfortable and cheap to get around the city, it's perfect. Be careful to stay outdoors above, especially if you start from the port because you pass by a sort of highway, so you go fast and there is lots and lots of air. In the centre, on the other hand, there is a lot of traffic so it is often stationary and not a nuisance. Nice experience though, I recommend it

It is just what they offer and what other companies charge more, for €12 we had 48 hours to get on and off the bus as much as we wanted around Athens, Piraeus and the beaches. The service ends at 7pm and you have to keep an eye on the time the last bus leaves from the Acropolis if you want to go to Piraeus and the beaches.

I was in Athens at the end of September and can definitely recommend the yellow line Hop on Hop off bus tour. Everything worked super easy and you can easily get to the city or to the sea. The tour guide Giannis was always friendly and tried hard if you had any questions. He was also able to give some insider tips to make my stay in Athens even better, thanks again for that! I will definitely book the ticket again on my next trip.
