How do you go from athens (plaka area) to santorini in december or january? |
Travel Info do you know of any good and affordable hotels in santorini? and how many days do you rceommend that we should stay in santorini. we are in a budget! Travel Tips Hi Sally D. One thing that no-one has mentioned so far is the unreliability of the ferries at the time of year you are travelling. The port police are much stronger these days than they ever were and, if there is a danger of bad weather, the police will not allow a boat to sail - full stop ! Also the timetables are very much reduced in the winter from what they are now. The winter timetables are not normally produced until around October time, so you check again then to see what is available. Make sure you check weather on your way back - there are many times I have had to leave an island early because there was bad weather coming which meant I would have been stuck for a few days. I've always found Greek Ferries to be a good reliable source of information. Source(s): http://www.greekferries.gr/ Other Travel Tips From Plaka area...hmmm...first take the metro from Syntagma square, change to the green line ,last stop Pireaus port. Then take the boat and go to Santorini. The slow boats are much cheaper than the highspeed ones.Santorini is a marvellous place, unique in the world, you can stay in rooms-to-let, in winter period they are quite cheap. Enjoy xxx Decenber in Santorini? Why? Its cold and there very few people there during winter. Take the metro/train system to Piraeus port (~1 euro) http://www.ametro.gr/#. Or a taxi from Plaka to Piraeus port (~10 euros) Then a Catamaran or a Ferry to Santorini (Hellenic seaways). http://www.hellenicseaways.gr/index.asp?... (~60 euros with return ticket) Welcome to Greece. I am Greek and did it recently. |
