Piraeus or Athens

My children (17, 23 and 25) will be sailing on Celebrity Infinity at the end of June. We fly into Athens on Friday afternoon. The cruise leaves out of Piraeus on Saturday mid-day. We would like to spend some time exploring Athens. Would we be better off staying in Athens on Friday night or in Piraeus?

Piraeus is nice, but since you want to explore Athens sleep there. You have plenty of time to get to your port the next day.

What time do you arrive exactly & you’ve given us the sailing time but not the boarding time which is usually quite a bit earlier. Unless you are arriving very early afternoon on Friday you’ll not get to see much at all :(
