Closest airport is Athens International Airport (ATH). It is 40 kilometers away from Athens city center which is where the bus to the Ranch will be departing from. Athens city center is reached easily in about 45 minutes either by getting on the metro or taking a bus. A metro round ticket currently costs 18€ while a bus round ticket costs 12€.
