About Welcome Pickups

Founded in Athens in 2015, Welcome Pickups provides pre-booked airport and port transfers with licensed, English-speaking drivers who meet you in Arrivals with a name sign. Fixed fares are paid in advance and flights are tracked. Athens International Airport lies about 30 km east of the centre and is linked to the city by metro line 3, the suburban railway and express buses. Allow plenty of time for the journey at rush hour, and keep your ticket until the end of the trip.

Timetables, fares and services change, so please check with Welcome Pickups before you travel.
