The ticket worked fine everywhere with the QR code. The ticket should be displayed first on the start page of headout and not under the "completed" bookings button

It's an awe inspiring place with thousands of years of history. Its size and grandeur were amazing. We upgraded to a walking tour with a guide and Maria was very skilled at being a tourist guide, personable and knowledgeable. Five star for her work.

We have visited Acropolis at the end of January. There was a lot of space for amazing photos. Perfect weather for visiting.

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.
