Travel & Visa
For Young Adults traveling from outside Europe, we suggest taking a flight to Athens International Airport. For those traveling from within Europe, Athens can be directly reached from many European cities by plane, bus, train, or car.
You will be picked up from the airport and taken to the venue by volunteer drivers. The participants arriving by train or bus will first be directed to take the metro to meet us at the airport where they will then be picked up.
