Full description

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.

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.

Fantastic experience. Visiting the Acropolis has been on my bucket list for some time, and I was not disappointed. The climb from the south slope was easy. I had expected it to be tough, but not at all. We went at 10 am with a few people ahead of us, but by the time we left an hour later, there was quite a queue. Buying our tickets online before going was a great idea. We had also bought tickets for the hop-on on hop-off red bus, which was another bonus. Great time altogether. I intend going back for longer.
