Breathtaking experience, lots of people but well organized. We had slot at 16:00 and went in on that time so crowd control was good 👍🏼

We walked to the top of the Acropolis and could see the whole city. It was beautiful. The crowds were not bad at this time of year and the weather was peerfect!

I did a self guided tour which was a positive experience. However my husband was unable to walk the distance to the top. As he waited for me another individual advised him there was an elevator. We were unable to locate an elevator. As we walked through the turnstile to exit, we asked about the elevator. We asked to re-enter so my husband could enjoy the experience and were denied. How frustrating g as we have no plans to return to Athens any time soon. So it was not the best experience quite frankly.

It was very well organized: was easy to buy the tickets online, getting to the Acropolis was easy, there was not a big line to the entrance, entering to the site was also easy.
