Internet

I landed in Athens at midnight on my first trip, exhausted, with no data on my phone. Couldn’t pull up my hotel address, couldn’t check if the airport bus was still running, couldn’t message anyone. I ended up paying a taxi driver whatever he asked because I had no way to verify the fare. Never again. Staying connected in Greece isn’t complicated, but you need a plan before you land. Free Wi-Fi exists at hotels and cafes, but it’s slow, unreliable in transit, and useless when you’re standing at a bus stop trying to figure out which route goes to the Acropolis.
