By sea
The ferries to Paros leave from Piraeus port.
If you land in Athens airport, you can get to Piraeus by taxi or by bus (about 1 hour, depending on the traffic). From Athens itself, you can get to Piraeus also by the subway (25 minutes from Athens center).
By ferry, it takes between 4 to 6 hours to get to Paros. In summer, you can also use the fast ferries (3 hours). All of the ferries have snack-bars that sell food and beverages, and except for the fast ferries, they all have open decks and sleeping compartments.
Tickets for the ferries can be bought in Athens airport or in Piraeus port.

In Paros
When you get to Paros, you can either use the public transportation (taxi or bus) or rent a car (or a motorbike in the summer). Since the public bus does not get to Tao’s center and in order to move easily around the Island, it is recommended to rent a car or a motorbike.
If you land at Paros airport, you can take a taxi or ask the rental agency that your car will wait for you at the airport. If you come with a ferry, you can rent a car at the car rental agencies that surround the port.
For getting to Tao’s center you need to get to the main road that surrounds the northern part of the island and take the turn to Ambelas (near the town of Naoussa). Turning from the main road to Ambelas, after about 500 meters, you will see our Tao’s sign pointing left. From there, just follow the signs.
