The Akropole is a magical place. The visit went well, we just didn't have the audio guides, we didn't receive the link. The blue bus is good, it runs every 20 minutes, we also enjoyed the excursion to Pereus and the beaches of Athens.

The entrance to the acropolis was well priced, and the audio guide was phenomenal, they allowed us to change the audio because I made a mistake when I selected Placka instead of the audio guide of the acropolis. Very nice. The only thing they should number the points on the map to know where you are standing, otherwise it's a bit confusing. And allow the audioguide to jump alone depending on your location, activate it or not (it always jumped), otherwise, very good, recommendable!
