Welcome to Greece! What Happens Next?

Landing at Athens International Airport (ATH) for the first time is thrilling. The sun is shining, and the Acropolis awaits. But before you can sip a Frappé, you have to navigate the airport.

To ensure your trip starts flawlessly, our local travel experts have put together the ultimate cheat sheet.

Step 1: Navigating Baggage Claim

Follow the signs for Arrivals/Baggage Reclaim. Passport control times can vary from 10 minutes to an hour during summer. Don’t stress—if you booked a premium transfer, your chauffeur is monitoring your flight.

Step 2: Spotting Your Driver

Once you walk through the sliding glass doors into the main Arrivals Hall, it can be crowded. Look for a sharp-dressed professional holding a digital or printed nameboard with your exact name.

Step 3: Avoiding Scams

Never accept rides from individuals inside the terminal offering 'cheap taxi rides'. These are often unlicensed. Always pre-book a certified premium service via a legitimate platform.

Step 4: The Journey to the City

The drive from the airport to Syntagma Square takes about 35-45 minutes. During the ride, your Romanof Travel chauffeur will provide insider tips and offer complimentary bottled water.
