Now Epirotiki Cruises is offering evening cruises from the port of Piraeus near Athens to the theater and back, serving dinner on the way. This being Greece, dinner is served late, on the return trip after the performance. This is a great way to make a special evening even more memorable without adding the potential stresses of driving through the Greek countryside at midnight along with hundreds of other vehicles and tour buses.
The price of the cruise includes dinner and the cruise itself, but you must book and pay for your own theater tickets. These run from a starting price of Euro 15 for the lowest-priced concerts at the Little Theater to Euro 44 for performances at the Ancient Theater at Epidaurus.
Epidaurus Cruise and Dinner Prices
For the Main Theater at Epidauros:
Adults: Euro 60
Children: Euro 35
For the Little Theater at Epidauros:
Adults: Euro 55
Children: Euro 31
Prices include a shuttle bus to the theater. The ships leave from Piraeus at Akti Vassiliadi - Gate E2.

Hints on Planning Your Evening
You should book your theater tickets first, and then arrange your dinner and cruise. Some performances may sell out. Performance tickets can only be obtained within three weeks of the performance date.[small]There is no single "official" spelling of Epidaurus. If you are searching for additional information, try Epidavros and Epidauros.[/small]
