Program

Academic organisation: Vincent C. Müller
Our Buses will go from the White Tower (Centre) to Anatolia and back. They will have a sign “Anatolia” and the bus company name is “Splendid”. http://www.splendid.gr/ The normal bus line 58 also goes to Anatolia (but takes more time). Otherwise a taxi is the best option, and not ruinous.
