Rare cruisemom42 Posted September 16, 2016 #126 Share Posted September 16, 2016 We have a half-day tour with a roll call group, but we want to stay in Athens until about 3:30 p.m. and take the Express Bus 80 back to the ship. Where EXACTLY does the #80 stop near Syntagma Square for the return trip? Will we be able to get the tickets from the driver, or is there a place to buy the 4.50 E tickets near the stop? You can see the location on the link provided by insanemagnet above. Scroll down the page to where the names of the stops are shown. Click on "Syntagma" and it will show you a map. Basically the stop is at the opposite side of the square from the Parliament building, near McDonalds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimMaCruise Posted September 17, 2016 #127 Share Posted September 17, 2016 You can buy the ticket from the driver or in the vending machines at the metro. If you only need it one way, you might be better off taking regular public transportation. If you walk around town, you can take a metro from Monastiraki to port and then move onto a bus (for only 1.8€) Check googlemaps or http://oasa.gr/?id=ind3ex&lang=en for more detailed schedules :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimi7ccr Posted September 17, 2016 #128 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Thanks for the suggestion to take the Metro plus a bus. Do you know which bus leaves from the port metro station to the cruise line terminals? This really sounds like the best plan for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It stops just outside the McDonald's across from the plaza as that's where we got off two weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
