Patras New Port is well-connected to the Ionian islands and several Italian ports, while it’s considered the Greek gateway to Europe. Patras is known for its universities, nightlife and Carnival, as well as its monuments and history. Patras New Port is located 4km away from Patras city centre and it’s one of the busiest ports in Greece.
There are two transfer options to get from New Port of Patras to Patras City Centre; train and taxi. Taking a Patras taxi is undoubtedly the easiest way to travel, taking only 5 minutes to reach the city of Patras; a trip that costs €9. The train option, on the other hand, is a combined trip. You will need to get a taxi to the nearest train station which is a 5-minute drive and costs €5. The train ticket costs only €2 and takes just 3 minutes to lead you to Patras Train Station. However, that’s where you will need to get another taxi to get to your accommodation in the city, as the station is 2km away. That is another short journey of 4 minutes which costs €5. In total, the cost of the combined trip is higher than that of a convenient direct taxi transfer, as it would cost you €14.
