Overview
Take a full-day excursion to Hydra, one of the most cosmopolitan islands in the Aegean Sea. Depart from Piraeus Port on the local ferry to reach Hydra in less than 2 hours, then enjoy about 5 hours at your disposal to discover this amazing Greek island independently. Wander around the picturesque town filled with red-tiled houses and stone-paved narrow alleys until it is time to take the ferry back to Athens. This package includes ferry tickets to Hydra Island and pickup and drop-off from centrally located hotels in Athens.

Hydra
After less than 2 hours by ferry, you will reach the famous island. You will then have about five hours to independently explore Hydra.
Hydra was once a destination popular with fashionable artists during the sixties and has kept a highly cosmopolitan character. There are no cars or motorcycles; garbage trucks are the only motor vehicles permitted on the island. Spend your day walking around Hydra Town admiring the stone houses with flowered gardens, lovely gift shops and picturesque paved streets. Donkeys, bicycles, and water taxis provide public transportation. Hydra has a variety of swimming spots and beaches, some close to town and some remote and secluded, accessible only by boat. Lounge cafeterias, port-side bars and loud clubs are found all over the town with options that can satisfy all tastes. Enjoy a day full of experiences on your own and in the afternoon, take the ferry back to Athens at the conclusion of the tour.

Hydra
Published on Apr, 2023
Everything went smoothly. Our driver was on time to pick us up at the hotel with the ferry tickets. Hydra is charming. No cars allowed only the donkeys. An abundance of restaurants and great views. Very relaxing.
Definite must-see
Published on Oct, 2022
It was amazing! Our drivers to and from our hotel to port were super helpful and kind. Hydra was Incredible. Such a peaceful island with so much to see and the best cafes and people. We went on a donkey ride around the gorgeous cobblestoned streets and ate amazing food. We saw local historical sites and thoroughly enjoyed every bit of the island. Definitely need to see this place when visiting Greece.
A Great Day Trip to Hydra
Published on Sep, 2022
This is an excellent tour for experienced travelers. Ferry tickets and transportation via taxi to and from our hotel to the ferry was provided. The taxi driver escorted us to the ferry and met us after the return trip. We enjoyed our easy self-guided day on Hydra very much.
Paradise
