Travel Tips
There are no direct Athens-Istanbul trains. To go to Athens, you must change trains at Thessaloniki.
Only one daily train connects Istanbul with Thessaloniki, Greece :
This train (IC91) departs Istanbul (Sirkeci) daily at 08:30 am, arrives at the Greek border station of Pythion near Edirne at 14:36 (2:36 pm), leaves the border station at 16:58 (4:58 pm), and arrives in Thessaloniki (Selanik) at 23:50 (11:50 pm).
The return train (IC90) departs Thessaloniki at 07:01 am, and arrives in Istanbul at 21:30 (9:30 pm).
The one-way fare is 鈧?0 in 1st class, or 33 euros in 2nd class. You can buy it at the railway station, by paying cash.
...From Thessaloniki, you will get various trains bound for Athens, the details/fares of which can be found at :

There is no direct train. You should get the train to Thessaloniki and then the train to Istanbul.
