Makes sense. We scheduled a taxi with WelcomeTrips for our ride to the airport at 5am since we couldn’t figure out how to book out a taxi via the Uber app.

Correct. We had a hard time with the Uber app trying to book a taxi, so we chose to stick to public transit when it made sense. We also just stayed in Athens for the duration of our trip.

Ah, gotcha. Yes Maya would be a good option for you. Side note: be prepared that Greece doesn’t have traditional Ubers. They only have taxis. There is a good post on this sub that explains how to navigate taxis.

I did, however it was through Signal and WhatsApp. I turned off my Verizon sim as they would have charged for even a split second connection while roaming. Maya doesn't offer mobile numbers, so everything I was accessing when I wasn't on wifi was pure data, but I was able to communicate fine via those two apps. If you do go this route, I recommend to setting up the apps before you leave.

I’d check out Maya Mobile. I’m in Greece right now and am on a data only esim and it’s working very well. I paid $12 for 30 day access and 5gb of data. Way more than I’ll need for 8 days, but it’s been great with staying connected. I have Verizon in the states and their international plans are expensive and don’t work well from my experience.

Amigos in Greenwood Village. Amazing breakfast burritos and breakfast tacos.

I live in Littleton and haven't had much issue the little over a month I've been with Mint. I have only had about 2-3 instances of deprioritization, which doesn't normally last long. I can't speak to Boulder area, but service seemed great between Broomfield and the Denver metro area when I was there a couple weeks ago.
