Ferries

[by Cats_od]

Hi guys,

Planning on doing some island hopping in june july of this year athens-paros-ios-santorini. Just wondering if we need to book ferry tickets in advance or would it be ok to book them when we get to greece? We do need to travel on specific dates

Thanks Cateos

You can book all of them in Athens ports but in order not to have bad surprises, maybe is better to book online.

Booking online will not allow for pick up of all the ferry tickets at piraeus port, only the ferry tickets from piraeus to paros can be collected at the port. Is our only option to get them by courrier to Ireland before we leave?

At this time of the season would there usually be difficulty booking ferries?i.e. full ferries with no spaces?

Cheers!

June July should be fine for your tickets. It can't be more difficult if you are leaving a Saturday.

Note that Greeka.com offers ferry services.
You can buy all your tickets online and choose as option to pick them all on a partner agency on Piraeus Port.
