Transportation in Greece can be affordable and convenient. Internal flights, ferries, and buses offer easy access to most destinations. Consider purchasing a Greece Island Pass for unlimited travel on ferries between islands. Taxis and rental cars are also available, but can be more expensive. Transportation costs range from $5-50, depending on the mode of transportation and distance traveled.
If you have more time, consider adding a day trip to Meteora, a collection of monasteries perched atop towering rock formations. If you have less time, consider skipping Nafplio and heading straight to Athens. Additionally, be sure to pack comfortable shoes for hiking and keep in mind that many businesses close in the afternoon for siesta.
