The largest Port of Greece did not disappoint. Talk about a bevy of food, seaside views and history

16:03 Those big stones behind you are all that is left of the great wall of Athens that Pericles built when he was Archon of the city, around 450 BC.

We went on a cruise that docked in Piraeus, but we actually took a tour into Athens and didn't get to see around the port. Seems like a missed opportunity! That breakfast your tried looked delish. I'd also love to try the souvlaki skewers too. Adding it to a future travel list!
@AdventuresOfATravelingDon7 ай бұрын
I mean if you have only one day on your first port, Athens has to be done. I do recommend going back and experiencing Pireaus itself now that you've 👍 me the Athens thing.

What do you mean? So you didn’t go there on your private yacht 😂! But seriously the archeological museum looks pretty fascinating. Definitely something I would check out. And I would love to hear from others to see if there is a consistent thing about entry charges during off season. Lol at the cute cat. Even though I don’t blame the cat. The calamari looked great!

I would probably have to refer you to hotel websites. Booking.com or Hotels.com I didn't stay in a hotel down there myself. There are several hotels right off the water and near the metro station. Theoxenia Piraeus Hotel pops up a lot for me.
