By ferry
Your trip to Samos can be with a conventional ferry boat
or by high-speed depending on the day, the time and the ferry company you wish
to travel with.
Ferries leave from the port of Piraeus. Karlovassi is the first port of Samos,

(Samos town is the capital of Samos).
If you select to visit Samos with the conventional ferry, your trip will take

many ports the ferry will call at on the way.
