Option 1: Private Transfer (Recommended)
A pre-booked private transfer is the most seamless option for arriving at the Four Seasons Astir Palace. Your driver meets you in Arrivals with a name board, handles your luggage, and delivers you directly to the hotel entrance — with the price agreed before you travel.
For a property of this calibre, the €10–€15 premium over a metered taxi is negligible. Welcome Pickups is the most reliable operator for this route, with English-speaking drivers and 24/7 support.

Taxis to Vouliagmeni are always metered — the fixed city centre rate does not apply to this area. From the official taxi rank outside Arrivals, expect to pay €60–€80 depending on traffic and exact time of day. The night surcharge (midnight to 5am) adds approximately 30% to the fare.
Important: do not accept rides from drivers who approach you inside the terminal. Use only the official yellow taxi rank. Ask the driver to confirm the route before setting off.
Option 3: Rental Car
If you plan to explore the Athenian Riviera during your stay, a rental car is worth considering. All major rental companies operate desks in the Arrivals hall at Athens airport. The drive to Vouliagmeni is straightforward — follow signs to Varkiza/Vouliagmeni on the coastal road. Parking at the Four Seasons is complimentary for guests.
