Presentation

Located on the northwestern coast of Peloponnese, Patras is the capital of western Greece.

Its ferry port is the main connection point to Italy and Western Europe. The Patras Passenger Ferry Terminal is housed in a modern building of approximately 3000 m² and features a lounge, bar, shops, duty free shop and shipping agents. . If for many years Patras was the second Greek port behind Piraeus in Athens, it has recently regained its title of "West Gate of Greece". Patras connects Greece with the ports of Ancona, Venice and Bari in Italy, with the port of Sami in Cephalonia and the port of Ithaca in the Ionian Islands. Depending on the time of year, you will find up to 43 weekly crossings with a minimum duration of 2:45.

From the harbor you will have the opportunity to visit the city of Patras perched on the hillside, a very little tourist town and rather atypical, which remains above all a point of passage to various archaeological sites of the Peloponnese. Just follow the central pedestrian street leading to an imposing staircase, which will take you directly to the Acropolis, literally "the highest in the city". It is also called "the castle" (kastro) which was built by the Byzantines on the remains of the Greek acropolis, surrounded by olive trees, palms and bougainvillea. A few dozen meters from the site of the Acropolis is a Roman Odeon of 2500 seats in excellent condition, which hosts concerts and plays in the summer.
