The museum was beautiful. Need better que organization. It was really confusing for those who had tickets and those who needed to buy tickets. You should have a separate que to separate the two.

I bought two adult tickets, but no tickets for my daughter who is 5 as the website said children 'over 5' needed a ticket. I read that to be 6yrs and up. But when we arrived we were told my daughter did need a ticket because she is 5yrs and a few months. It wasn't a problem and we got her a ticket quickly, but clearer terms would be appreciated.

It was very beautiful to see in person. It was very well organized. It was slightly crowded at 11 a.m. but we entered right away without waiting at a queue. We were visiting with a 2 year old child and there was safe storage for our stroller. There were water vending machines everywhere which was veri helpful. While we were leaving the queue was way too long and a lot of people were waiting to enter. The morning hours before 11 are better for visiting.

Very good price for 4 trips. Very friendly ladies at the Acropolis who patiently help you immediately. You should keep an eye on the times for the trips to Piraeus and the beaches, as they don't come every 20 minutes, but rather every 2 hours.
