Getting to Tolo
Your options for traveling from Athens Airport to Tolon House.
Tolo sits about 165 km south-west of Athens, on the Peloponnese. From Athens International Airport "Eleftherios Venizelos" (ATH) the trip takes roughly 2 hours, depending on traffic. You have three sensible options:
By rental car
The fastest and most flexible option. All major rental companies (Hertz, Avis, Sixt, Europcar, Enterprise and others) have desks at the Arrivals level of Athens Airport.
Route: Attiki Odos (A6, toll) → A8 toward Corinth → cross the Corinth Canal bridge → A7 "Moreas" toward Tripoli → exit for Argos/Nafplio → Nafplio → Tolo. About 165 km, ~2 h, with tolls totaling around €15–18 one way.
On arrival, you'll find parking close to the apartment (Theod. Kolokotroni 7).
By taxi / private transfer
A direct taxi or private transfer is the most comfortable option, especially with luggage or for late arrivals.
- Drive time: about 2 hours.
- Indicative price: €180 – €220 for a standard taxi. Tolls usually not included.
- We highly recommend our trusted driver Konstantinos Moschos (speaks English). He also has a minivan for up to 8 passengers. You can contact him by phone +30 6949635052 or email konmoschos@yahoo.com.
Bus & shuttle (KTEL)
The cheapest public option, but with a transfer in Athens.
1. From the airport, take the X93 express bus (about 60–80 min) to Kifissos Bus Terminal A.
2. From Kifissos, KTEL Argolidas runs coaches to Nafplio (about 2 – 2.5 h, fare around €14–16).
3. From Nafplio to Tolo (~12 km) take the local KTEL town bus (regular daytime service) or a taxi (~€15–20).
Practical tips
Tolls
Several toll points on the Attiki Odos and A7 — keep cash or a contactless card handy.
Fuel
Fuel on the motorway is very expensive. We recommend fueling up in Argos or Nafplio on your way back to save money.
Last mile
Tolo's streets are narrow — follow signs toward the harbor.
