The process to book the tickets was seamless and the instructions were very well detailed. The package deal was also good as it included a host of monuments to visit.

The visit itself was absolutely amazing. Getting the tickets on line that morning was easy but I had trouble getting the audio tour via the app. Nevertheless we were able to read a lot of information on the boards dotted around the site.

Everything went well. But it is true that we only had a margin of half an hour to enter the Acropolis (15 minutes ahead and 15 minutes behind the fixed time to enter) and that conditioned us a little. While with the official ticket (besides being cheaper) we had a margin of one hour to enter the Acropolis.

We arrived around 10 o'clock and it was not too dangerous, whether because when we rolled up the hill, eventually sat-sat ipo, there were a few tourists waiting for the hill... It is best to buy tickets online.

My experience at the Acropolis was good, I only point out that the audio guide was not for touring the Acropolis but for touring the Plaka neighborhood, in English (very close to the Acropolis). If you have time and know English I recommend it because it shows places that I would not have visited by my own means and it was useful because I did not take any tour. The experience to the temple of Poseidon was very good, as it was punctual, the bus that took us was well equipped (there was wifi and space to charge the phones) and we had audio guides for the tour to Cape Sounion.

Explore ancient Greek history

The Acropolis is a stunning Athenian temple complex located on a rocky outcrop above the city. Stop by the ruins of legendary structures like the Propylaea, the entrance to the ancient temple of Parthenon. Dedicated to Athena, the Parthenon’s main function was to shelter the monumental statue of Athena that was made by Pheidias out of gold and ivory.

Temples in the Acropolis

Wander across the once-sacred halls of Athena Nike and the Erechtheion. The Odeon of Herodes Atticus will leave you in awe. The large amphitheater was built in AD 161 by wealthy Roman Herodes Atticus in memory of his wife Regilla and is still used to this day for concerts and other events. You have the option to include a mobile audio guide in case you're looking to add some insights to your tour.
