You can rent a car at the airport and drive to Nafpaktos-- strongly encouraged if you want to be able to get around on your own time! There will be some tolls you have to pay that accept cards or euros. If you don't want to rent a car and need to have a ride scheduled for you, please text or call Arianna or Giovanni to set this up for you. This is typically 200 euros.
We are hosting a pre-wedding beach party at Blue Lake Beach Bar on July 22nd, from 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM. The venue is approximately a 10 to 15-minute drive from the Nafpaktos port. We have scheduled a shuttle bus to pick up guests from the main port at 1:30 PM. If you have rented a car, you are welcome to drive there, and taxis are also readily available if you would like to go on your own time. Please RSVP for the shuttle bus under the RSVP tab if you would like to utilize that option!
Yes, there will be a shuttle bus arranged that will take people from Nafpaktos town center at the main port to the church and wedding venue on the day of the wedding. There will also be multiple buses leaving at different hours to take people back to Nafpaktos center at the end of the night. Please check back for times. Please RSVP under the RSVP tab if you would like to use this shuttle bus option!
If you are considering extending your stay and exploring the area before the wedding, you have several travel options: - Rent a Car: A great way to explore the region at your own pace. We highly recommend visiting Lefkada which is known for its beautiful beaches. - Flight: You can take a flight from Athens Airport to a variety of nearby islands, offering you flexibility and convenience. - Ferry: Take a taxi from Athens Airport to Piraeus Port (approximately a 30-40 minute drive), and from there, catch a ferry to your chosen island. We strongly recommend booking your ferry tickets online in advance to ensure you are traveling to the correct destination at the correct time. * Some of the popular islands accessible from Piraeus Port include Milos, Paros, Santorini, and Mykonos. For those of you planning to travel after the wedding, you may want to consider Patras Port, located just 25 minutes from Nafpaktos. This port offers ferries to several beautiful islands, including Kefalonia, Zakynthos, and Corfu. Once your trip concludes, you can either fly back to Athens Airport or take a ferry back to Patras Port and drive to Athens Airport for your return journey. We hope this helps with your travel planning, and we're excited to share this beautiful part of Greece with you!
