How to reach Athens from Delhi is the most sought-after question for those who are planning to visit the historically rich Athens city.

To simply answer the question and put an end to your curiosity, the best and the most convenient way to cover distance from Delhi to Athens is to take a flight. The aerial distance between both cities is around 5009 kilometers which can be covered in 12 hours to 26 hours depending upon the number of stopovers. There are no direct flights between both cities. Delhi is the capital of India. It is connected with the rest of the world, including almost all the capital cities of Europe via direct or connecting flights by international carriers. Flights are the best way to make the journey from Delhi to Athens. There are no other ways to travel between the two cities directly. However, if one wishes to break and journey, there are other means of transport to avail.

To reach Athens via roadway, one must drive from Delhi to Rajasthan, past the Pakistan border then into Iran and Turkey before reaching the Greek border. The geographical situation itself is not favorable for a road trip, nor is the political situation. But to drive to Athens from any other European city is quite easy. All the countries of southern and south-western Europe are well-connected, and there are buses as well as private car rentals for the trip. The two bus stops in Athens are at Kifissou Street and Liossion Street.

Many travelers love to avail the newer versions of the luxurious trans-Europe express, connecting all the major cities of southern Europe. Now there are night trains, scenic trains, high-speed trains and regional trains to ferry travelers to Athens from adjacent countries. It is only from another European country that one can get to Athens via train.

Delhi to Athens by flight: flights from New Delhi to Athens leave from Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL) for Athens is Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport (ATH) on a pretty frequent basis. The flight distance is a little less than 5009 km, but in most cases, the flight takes much longer than it should reach Athens. This is because for most Delhi to Athens by flights; there are layovers at other neighboring European cities like Zurich, Budapest or Sofia. There is no direct flight from Delhi to Athens, at least one layover is there. The duration of flight depends on layovers and ranges from 12 hours to 26 hours. The fastest Delhi to Athens flight duration is flown by the middle-east airways like Gulf Air, Turkish Airlines, Etihad or Qatar Airways.

Nishant's 6 days trip to Athens

I generally plan my own trips but this time choose TT. I specially liked that we were given driver and car for pickup and drop for every transit and I didn't have to drag my luggage in the public transport.. also they were constantly in touch with us thru WhatsApp and flexible to make changes based on our plan (until the last momemt). If I compare my much would have I saved if I planned everything on my own vs using TT the difference is not that much when compared to the comfort I got.

Rohan's 7 days trip to Athens

Everything was great. We didn't have to think about our next move because everything was very well planned. Meteora, for sure! It is one of the best places to visit on earth. A geological and architectural marvel!! Maria and George in Meteora were one of the best guides.

Uday's 7 days trip to Athens

1. Excellent suggestion on the Travel Agent options. 2. Payment terms and modality of installments is user friendly. 3. It is probably the mandate of travel triangle to facilitate the travel schedule chosen by the customer. Perfect. Wish some inputs are mildly/indirectly provided by Travel Triangle in future to the prospective customers on the validity of their travel dates as far as tour season in the destination is concerned. If the travel dates fall in low season period, the shops are 90% closed, the internal transfers/ mode of travel (e.g ferries in Greece for the travel between islands get shut down in the low season period). 4. Hope there exist efforts from Travel Triangle to get the partnered agents in one room and train them of certain policy aspects . I am confident the top mgmt at Travel Triangle is aware about this. There is increased trend in higher middle class for aportioning funds for international travel and more over distinctly pronounced trend ( at least in Mahatrashtra) to avoid travelling thru big tour-arranging companies where the cotravellers don't exactly wear compatible mind-sets. Such travellers need more design inputs while deciding on the travel period for a given location. Hope above feed back would be taken in right perspective . Thanks for your time Dr. Uday B Gokhale, 9820830461

Shatabdi's 8 days trip to Athens

I am sooooooo happy with the Mauritius trip. Ms.Ishita 9f My Trav Plan took care of everything very smooooooothly. Her behavoiur is way too good. She is kind, generous & very understanding. She made the changes dat I required very patiently. I got one of my best trip. The hotel chosen for me, Veranda,Grand baie was simply a wow..All d staffs were so friendly nd caring. They took extra care for the whole 5 days. The cab chosen nd the driver was Mr.Suben. He is indeed a well mannered, helpful nd a very kind man. He went out of his way to help me in many places. Special thanks to him. Being a solo traveller, all the above mentioned facts matter to me very much. So thank you so much and looking forward for another trip.

Ramkicrn's 7 days trip to Athens

Took a week long family trip to Greece planned by Ishita and executed by Ishan from MTP vacations. Overall great experience. Pros: Ishita from sales side was quite flexible in tailoring our trip to Greece and accommodated most of my inputs towards locations, length of stay, hotels etc., Quote given was quite competitive compared to peers. Ishan from operations side stayed on top of our itinerary throughout our stay providing pickup co-ordinates, driver and stay details. Got us upgraded to better travel modes as needed to ensure our schedules won't go astray, made us positively surprised and appreciated. Was available on phone, chat through the stay to ensure our travel experience is not compromised. Cons/Improvement areas: Minor discomforts were to wait for end of the day to know exact details of next day's plans.. Though nothing went off-track majorly, couple of schedule changes were done (of course for a better experience), but weren't communicated till late. While we were able to take it in our stride and play along, might not be the case for others . Both the above are more for ppl who don't like surprises in schedules, especially bit older travelers. Sales team were able to accommodate my asks on locations, however would be great if they are forthcoming with such family friendly options for uninitiated travelers. But Overall lovely family vacation enabled by MTP team!! Keep up the good work...
