The exhibition and museum was exceptional. The audio guide was interesting but hard to find the exhibit being described sometimes.

The museum layout mimicking the actual Parthenon was the show stopper for me, the metopes at eye level, such great attention to detail and the explanations

Was good to go straight in to the museum. The ticket part worked well. The audio instructions were not clear. I did not know I had to download an app. Once I did get it I found it difficult to find the items she was talking about and abandoned the audio in the end. Had I known the museum had an audio guide I would have used it and saved the 6 euros. Ticket good, audio not so great.

The Acropolis museum was fascinating. It is easy to become overwhelmed by the volume of artifacts they have on display. The self guided audio tour from the website made the experience very enjoyable. The audio tour gave detailed instructions on how to navigate the museum and great background information on a substantial number of pieces.
