Take the chance to visit the Acropolis, the most famous monument of ancient Greece. Receive your ticket to your e-mail along with instructions to download your audio tour and go directly to the South Entrance, close to the Acropolis metro station. Scan your ticket at the ticket-validating machines, put on your headphones and listen to our professional, licensed guides, and experts on storytelling present you with historical information and narrate original handpicked stories, while you walk uphill and explore the unique landmark. Take as much time as you need. The Acropolis is an archaeological wonder, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and one of the most instantly recognizable landmarks of Athens. Walk into the Theater of Dionysus and see the UNESCO-listed impressive Parthenon Temple which is dedicated to Athena, the goddess of war. Visit the Propylaea, the temple of Athena Nike, Erechtheion and see the Odeon of Herodes Atticus from the top. You can walk to all sides of the hill and awe at the marvelous views of Athens, the surrounding mountains and of course the Aegean Sea. Towering over the capital, Acropolis is a very impressive sight, and walking around on its grounds, gives the visitor a feeling of awe and a true sense of the greatness of the ancient Greeks.

Letizia – ItalyOctober 8, 2023 – Verified booking
this activity is worth every penny of its price and left me amazed. the acropolis is beautiful in every way, but being able to admire its monuments up close in complete tranquility is an experience that I will carry in my heart. one thing I appreciated besides the visit was the fact that there was a drinks machine stocked with still water for €0.50 - which is very important on a hot day like this. I also want to add this: food is rightly prohibited inside the acropolis, but using the main entrance there are lockers that can be used to leave it. at all other entrances, if the ticket inspectors see you with a bag of food (which you may want to consume at another time), they will tell you to get rid of it in any way without mentioning the lockers. so I would advise to be careful about this fact! for the rest, as I said previously, it was a magnificent and unforgettable experience. a must-see for athens!

The tour booking process was quick, painless and problem free. On arrival, I presented my ticket at the barrier and I was too early but they also noticed the lack of time slot on the voucher itself. They inspired Insisted I go to the ticket office... I queue, which defeats the object! That was kind of the point of pre booking! Thankfully some kind soul let me push in. I speak the the ticket office lady... she was grumpy and extremely rude, I was shouted at rudely and told not to be stupid, it wasn't time yet. 🙄. Back to the other queue, wait another 30 minutes by the gate to finally be allowed in after a huge coach tour rock up... one massive queue formed all the way from the bottom of the hill to get in. I whizz around, and then queue for 15 mins to get out. The restoration works also meant a closure to one side so there was no way around with 2 way traffic everywhere. It was rammed. If I would do it again Book direct to avoid confusion Go early And bring water!

This is the trademark of Athens. There is no way to miss gorgeous landmarks. There is a change in getting into the site. It was supposed to be skip-the-line, but now needed to exchange eTicket to ticket to enter. People were frustrated in lining up 2 times. Not sure whether it is a permanent process.
