Piraeus Travel Blogs

The next morning David and Robert went down to the Ferry again...... The ticket agents were optimist and sold them tickets with assurances that they would depart later that morning....   We got our packs (backpack suitcases) and went to the docks.... We stood and stood with about 100…

Sylvia and David (sylvianddavid) went to Greece back in 2006. And while they were there got some terrific pictures of the area.  One of the shots they took was of a very beautiful church.  She even patted me on the back enough that I felt I had to try a little hard and outdo myself. …

I had such a feeling as we were approaching the end of our cruise, so I decided to not waist too much time in sleeping, I woke up very early, went to the top deck and took some photos of the sun rise as the ship docked in Piraeus. After breakfast we disembarked to explore the city. P…

My wife and I spent 15 days traveling around Greece and the Greek Islands. The people, the food, and the archaeological sites exceeded all of our expectations.

Athens, Poros

I recently found my travel journal from my 2006 trip. I figured i needed to write about this trip since it was full of debauchery and stupidity...enjoy. under construction

So we splurged 150 Euro for a cabin and it was rather nice with TV and air conditioning and a shower...  but the deck was good too!  There were plushy couches and the ferry was more like a cruise with resturants, bars, cafes, and even a casino and mini-mall!  So we were pretty happy …

I started in Rio in November 2006, from there to British Coloumbia, Canada for 1 year.

E após explorar um pouco a costa leste canadense, partirei de Toronto pra Europa.

OMG! I can't believe I am actually in Athens!  I had three "must visit" places before I die and Athens was my #1 (Rome and Egypt were the other two).  We had to be up at the crack of dawn as our excursion left the ship at 7am - I booked the whole day, biggest, and longest tour I could fin…

We planned a trip to Ukraine so that Axiepics could return to her roots.

Arrive:6am Depart: 5:45pm  Fond memories of our week as prisoners of the greek government in 1975.  Maybe we can get out to the hotel we were in then.  The Greeks took our airplane away from us and we were housed at the USAF Officers club in a hotel about a block from the beach. …

It was 10 days since we had left the car in Piraeus to explore the Greek Islands. We'd left the car in a parking lot but weren't sure if the guy on duty understood that we were going to be away for more than a day. Was the car still going to be in the car park on our return?We walked in with our ba…
