Open full size Direct to Larissa Station — fast & spacious
Follow signs for "Suburban Railway" or "Προαστιακός" from the airport arrivals area — separate platform from the Metro.
Get a €10 ticket from the machines or ticket office — valid for both Suburban Railway and Metro for 90 minutes with transfers.
Take the Suburban Railway towards Athens / Piraeus. Direct connection — you do NOT need to change trains.
The journey takes about 25 minutes. Larissa Station (Σταθμός Λαρίσης) is the main railway station of Athens.
Exit the station and head east along Filadelfeias Street. Continue straight to Ioulianou and number 50 is on your left. (Note: Google Maps' automatic route makes unnecessary detours — the straight path via Filadelfeias is faster.)
Blue line direct from the airport to Victoria
From the airport arrivals area, follow "Metro" signs to the platform.
Get a €10 ticket from the machines — valid for 90 minutes with transfers.
Board the Blue Line. The airport is the eastern terminus — every train going west works.
After ~33 minutes, transfer at Monastiraki to the Green Line (Line 1) towards Kifisia. Victoria is 3 stops further.
Exit Victoria station, head northwest on Patision (28is Oktovriou), then turn right onto Ioulianou. Your destination is on the left, at number 50.
Fixed airport fare, zero hassle with luggage
From the arrivals area, head to the official taxi rank just outside the terminal.
Use only the official airport rank. Avoid anyone approaching you inside the terminal.
"Ioulianou 50, Athens 104 34" — show it on your phone or on paper, pronunciation matters.
€38 daytime (05:00-24:00) or €54 nighttime (00:00-05:00) — fixed fare from the airport. Tolls are included.
Make sure the driver has started the meter or has agreed on the fixed airport fare before you set off.

The closest Metro station to Ioulianou 50. Line 1 (Green) connects it to Omonia, Monastiraki, Plaka, the Acropolis and Piraeus. At Monastiraki you change to Line 3 for the airport.
Athens' central railway station — served by four Suburban Railway lines (including the direct airport link), Metro Line 2, and the long-distance intercity trains.
If you are coming from Thessaloniki, Patras or another Greek city by regular train, you will arrive at Larissa Station — the same spot as the Suburban Railway. Follow the same 16-18 minute walk via Filadelfeias to Ioulianou 50, or take Metro Line 2 (red) two stops to Omonia and walk 10 minutes.
