Athens is not just the capital of Greece. It is the real cradle of Western civilization. The city is over 2500 years old, but in the twentieth century it radically changed into a large metropolis, literally rising from the ashes of the Ottoman yoke. The magical atmosphere of communion to the ancient history will impress you during the journey.
Athens has a subtropical Mediterranean climate and minimal rainfall. The main feature of the Athens climate is the alternation of long hot and dry summers and mild, humid winters.
If you are planning to visit Athens in the summer to see its unique sights, we recommend you to take a hat and sunscreen with you, as well as a bottle of water to quench your thirst on hot summer days. Spring and autumn are great times to be in Athens, because the weather is sunny and pleasantly warm; at this time it is easy to navigate the sights.
From January to March, the temperature in Athens ranges from 10 ° C to 13 ° C. In April and May, it rises and ranges from 16 ° C to 20 ° C. As the summer approaches, the weather becomes hotter as the temperature starts from 25 ° C and sometimes exceeds 35 ° C. In September and October, the temperature reaches 25 ° C, and in November and December it drops significantly and fluctuates around 15 ° C.

While you are in Athens, you will not be able to ask “where to go?” And “what to see?”, as this city is full of attractions, including museums, cultural centers, historical and unique ancient monuments.
The so-called Sacred Rock of the Acropolis is undoubtedly the most important and impressive view of Greece.
The Acropolis Museum is located in the southeast of the Acropolis, in the historic district of Makrianni. It is 300 meters from the Acropolis and 2 km from the main square of Syntagma.
In the center of Athens, you can feel the vibrant rhythms of the city, as well as see a fascinating spectacle - the changing of the presidential guard outside the parliament building.
This is one of the most crowded and tourist areas in the historical center of Athens. At the same time, however, it is one of its most beautiful quarters with beautiful neoclassical, picturesque pedestrian streets.
Of course, you will not find a Russian taxi directly in Athens, but you can easily find Russian-speaking drivers by ordering a transfer from Aktis.Taxi. Most of our employees speak Russian. Even if you find someone who does not speak this language, you can always call Russian-language support working 24\7.
The transfer prices from Aktis.Taxi are very loyal and much more profitable than those of a regular city taxi, which charges you extra money for traffic jams, and so on.
For example, our transfer from the Athens airport to the city center takes 35 minutes and will cost you from 40 to 90 euros depending on the class of a car, and a collective trip by a Mercedes Van (8 people) is only 80 euros.
You can order a transfer both on our website online and in a convenient mobile application. You will have the opportunity to save a decent amount of money and get the service of the highest class with us. You will not have to pay extra money for a child seat and various additional services, our cars are completely new, equipped with air conditioning, and the drivers are experienced and fluent in Russian. If necessary, they will always help you with your luggage and answer questions about your stay in Greece. You do not have to worry about finding a car at the airport or train station: the driver will meet you right in the arrival hall or on the platform with a sign in his hands. And, of course, no prepayments are required from you: all calculations pay after the trip.
Discover the color, rhythm, history, sights and life of the largest city in Greece, and our transfer will connect you with its charm!
