Can I Use My Uber App in Greece?
Planning a trip to Greece and wondering what’s the easiest way to get around Athens, Thessaloniki, or Crete? Or maybe you’ve just landed at Athens Airport in Spata and suddenly realized you forgot to check how local transport works? You’re not alone - many travelers ask the same question: Can I use the Uber app I have installed in my home country - like Australia, Germany, the USA, or Poland?
The answer is simple: yes - you can!
Uber is a global app that works in many countries around the world. This means that whether you installed it in Australia, Germany, the United States, the UK, or Poland - you’ll still be able to use it in Greece.
There’s no need to create a new account or install a different version. Just open the app as you normally would, and the fare will be charged to the card linked to your Uber account.
A few things you should know
In Greece, Uber operates a bit differently - rides are provided by licensed taxi drivers who partner with Uber, rather than by private individuals.This means that an official taxi will pick you up, but you’ll book it through the app - with a fixed, upfront price and no haggling or surprises.
An alternative option is the FreeNow app - also very popular in Greece and working in a similar way.
So no need to worry! Have a great holiday!
