ITU Message to Incoming Students;
As the local Coordinator and director of ATHENS, I would like to extend a warm welcome to all of you.

Arrival: We expect you on Saturday, November 12th any time after 10:00 o’clock. When you arrive to the airport you may share a cab that will cost about 20 Euro to go to the Youth Hostel. If you are travelling alone, it would be best to take the airport shuttle bus called HAVAŞ right in front of the airport exit gate. This bus would cost 5 Euro and will take you to Taksim Square. If your luggage is not very heavy you may walk to the youth hostel. Below you will see a small map.
