Directions, Transport and Travel To and From Athens University
(Athens, Greece)



Driving around the Athens city centre can be an adventure. Roads can become very congested during peak hours, while Greek drivers can become short-tempered. Most of the city centre is closed off to vehicular traffic, so getting lost is a common tourist problem. However, traveling to the city's outlying areas is easy because of the newly-built Attiki Odos that encircles the city and connects it to the airport and the Olympic Stadium.

Despite the difficulties of navigating the city by car, visitors can still rent a car from the many car rental companies found in the city. For convenience, visitors can make their bookings over the phone.
