How To Reach Greece From The Continent

BY AIR. Athens is less than five hours from Paris by Olympic Airways Comet or Air France Caravelle, two outstanding short-range jets. Other flights include KLM from Amsterdam, Olympic Airways or Sabena from Brussels, Alitalia or Olympic Airways from Rome, etc. Athens is an intermediary stop for medium range Middle East bound and long range Far East and Africa bound planes.
BY TRAIN. Two main rail routes serve Greece from Western European cities: to the north, trains from Holland, Belgium, Germany and Austria converge to Yugoslavia and beyond.
From the West, trains from France and Italy cross at Trieste en route for Belgrade and Athens. All carry first class sleeping car, second class couchettes and diners. A few of the most convenient fast trains running to Greece are:
Simplon-Orient Express: London-PaTis-Lausanne-Milan-Trieste-Ljubljana-Zagreb-Belgrade-Ni"s-Thessaloniki-Athens.
Tauern Express: London-Brussels-Cologne-Munich-Salzburg- (ParisSalzburg) -Lj ublj ana-Zagreb-Belgrade-Ni's-Thessaloniki-Athens.
Yugoslavia Express: Amsterdam-Cologne-(London-Brussels-Cologne)S alzburg-Trieste-Rij eka-Belgrade-Athens.
Balkan Express: Vienna-Graz-Zagreb-(Milan-Venice-Trieste-Zagreb)Belgrade-Skopje-Thessaloniki-Athens.
BY SHIP. Although Greek cargo ships, with limited passenger space, ply sport ween English and French channel ports and Greek ports, few tourists will wish to travel by slow boat. On the other hand, travelers from Portugal, France and Italy may pick up an American, Greek or Israeli transatlantic
liner in Western Mediterranean ports heading for Piraeus or one of the numerous Greek, Italian and Yugoslav liners plying sport ween Adriatic ports (Venice, Trieste Rijeka, Bari, Brindisi) and various points in Greece. Messageries Maritimes connect Marseille with Piraeus and so does the Hellenic-Mediterranean Line.
BY CAR. Tourists driving overland from Western Europe may cross the frontier into Greece from Yugoslavia, via Bitola (border stations Mediidli-Niki) or at GevgelijaEvzoni. If you can get a Bulgarian visa you may drive via
Sofia-Thessaloniki, crossing the border at Marinopole-Klidhi. If you are the really adventurous type you might try and drive along the Dalmatian (Yugoslavia) coast into Albania and thence to Greece-and good luck to you!
The Hellenic-Mediterranean Line's drive-on car ferries Egnatia and Appia ply six times weekly sport ween Brindisi (Italy), Corfu, Igoumenitsa and Patras. The journey takes roughly 7, 9 and 19?z hours respectively. Among the largest car ferries in the world, there is room for 762 day passengers and 115 cars. The air-conditioned boats have three cabin classes and a large number of aircraft-type reclining seats in the observation saloon, besides restaurant, bar and swimming pool. There are five runs a week to Corfu and Igoumenitsa, two to Patras.
Passenger boats of Italian, Greek and Yugoslav shipping lines take a limited number of vehicles from Venice, Trieste, Bari and Brindisi.
