Taking my children to the Acropolis will be memorable. It was a beautiful winters day. The sun was out and it was glorious

The south entrance was a good choice, but the line for the fast entrance was poorly organized and the staff was very unfriendly and unclear. You probably can't do much about that, but if a fast line is promised and paid for, it should be there

The entrance is fine, we went with two children, who do not pay and at the entrance they take you to the ticket office for the free ticket. It is essential to bring a guide or audio guide. On this occasion the audio guide is pleasant and tells the important things. I recommend it, ... although the geolocation is not quite achieved but you can put the manual audio.

The app and tickets worked fine on first day but after that tickets disappeared and had to keep signing in to find tickets each time. You won't allow printing tickets so assume your trying to stop me using tickets. Too much messing about. Won't use app again.

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.
