Travel Note
FREE NOW is the first app you should download upon arrival in Athens if your preferred way to commute to avoid the heat and crowds is by taxi. Uber also operates in Greece but with taxi cars so any of the 2 can work for you. Tip from a local: Avoid taking taxis from the street without calling as a. most of them do not accept debit or credit cards and b. there is a risk of ending up paying more for your ride vs. through one of the apps mentioned above.
