Cómo ir de Atenas a Rodas

When you fly from Athens to Rhodes, you first need to travel 35 km southeast from Athens city centre to Athens International Airport (Eleftherios Venizelos).

Depending on where you're staying, you have three primary transport options:

• Metro (Line 3): $10 (€9), 40 minutes

• Express Bus (X95): $6.30 (€5.50), 1 to 1.5hrs

• Official Taxi: Flat fare of $46 (€40) during the day (05:00–24:00) or $63 (€55) overnight (00:00–05:00), 35 minutes. You can also compare prices with Uber.

The train is our recommended option for getting to Athens Airport, especially if you’re staying near a Metro Line 3 station. The journey takes around 40 minutes, and trains to the airport depart throughout the day from around 05:50 until 23:20.

Always check the latest timetable before you travel, as schedules may change.

Aegean Airlines and Sky Express operate several daily flights from Athens to Rhodes.

Travel time takes 1 hour, and ticket prices start from $46 (€40).

De nuevo, es mejor reservar tu vuelo con meses de anticipación para obtener las tarifas aéreas más bajas.

Los vuelos llegan a Rhodes – Diagoras International Airport.

Para llegar al centro de la ciudad de Rhodes, tendrás que viajar 20 km al noreste desde el aeropuerto de Rhodes. Puedes tomar un taxi (25 minutos) o un autobús (40 minutos).

The taxi is a quick and easy way to reach your hotel. Fares start from around $29 (€25), but we think you’ll appreciate the time and hassle you save with this option!

A bus ride only costs $2.90 (€2.50). However, the travel time is almost double that of a taxi ride because the bus makes several stops along the way. During the busy summer months, buses can get crowded, so you may have to stand or wait for the next bus.

If you're travelling on a budget, then you can find the buses just outside the airport terminal. Buses arrive at RODA Bus Station on Averof Street in Rhodes city centre.

Piraeus Port is located about 15 km southwest of Athens city centre. You can get there by metro train in around 30 minutes for only $1.40 (€1.20).

From Athens city centre, take Metro Line 1 (Green Line) o Metro Line 3 (Blue Line) to Piraeus Station. Popular departure stations include Monastiraki (Lines 1 and 3), Omonia (Line 1), and Syntagma (Line 3).

You need to get off at Piraeus Station.

• Line 1 (Green Line): Arrives at the historic station building.

• Line 3 (Blue Line): Arrives at the newer underground station.

From either station, follow the signs to your ferry gate. Depending on your departure gate, the walk through Piraeus Port takes around 5–20 minutes.

If you'd rather be dropped off closer to your ferry terminal, you can take a taxi from central Athens. The journey takes around 15 minutes, depending on traffic, and fares start at around $18 (€16).

Blue Star Ferries is the only ferry company operating from Piraeus to Rhodes.

Keep in mind, however, that the travel time takes 15h 30m - 23h. Along the way, the ferry stops at several islands to pick up and drop off passengers. Whether the journey is worth it depends on how you'd like to spend your time on board.

Si planea alejarse del mundo por un tiempo y dejarse arrullar por las olas, ¡entonces definitivamente vale la pena considerar esta opción!

Ferry rates start from $67 (€59). Although it’s more expensive than a flight, all ferries are overnight, so you can also think of it as saving a night on accommodation.
