| Transport is an important source of communication in any major country which is well connected through well developed roads. The bus service is the main form of transport in the whole of Greece. The buses are mainly of two kinds: The Blue city buses and the long distance, 'Greyhound' equivalent light green buses. The blue city buses travel throughout Greece. For DRA 100, in Attiki one can take the bus all the way to Varkiza. Seaside Attiki buses go from the Zapeion and Kifisia and north suburban buses go from Square Kaningos. Tickets are to be bought before boarding the bus at machines which are available at some of the bus stops. |
