Views at the top of acropolis across Athens. Audio guide easy to download follow the information on the ticket PDF download. The ticket queue was very busy at the entrance, the skip the line queue is also big, but better to wait in one than two We went at 2pm.

The information and geo location was excellent. I would say for more clear instructions that the tour does not start at the main entrance. We ended up touring backwards which became quite confusing.

We had a wonderful experience at the Acropolis Museum, from the quick entry with the skip the line tickets to the free audio tour you can listen to on your own phone. The artifacts they have collected are truly amazing. We also enjoyed having breakfast at the rooftop cafe.

The venue was very overcrowded and the staff was rather rude. The only nice person we encountered was the security guard who scans your items through the security machine. None of the employees were helpful and the lady on the 2nd floor gift shop was very condescending. The venue itself is nice and informative but the employees need to like their jobs or get new ones.

It wasn't clear where to start, which way to go, where the information was played. Some things just stopped in between even though I wasn't moving An overview map is missing. The descriptions were also rather weak.
